    I don't know why we would be interested in any of the Big 3 from BOS. I'm not thrilled at the thought of Pau, but we aren't getting it done as is, so I'm willing to give it a try. We definitely need players with skill AND height. I wish we could find a big physical 6'10" anchor, but there aren't many of them.

    Scola gets more inefficient and worse on D every passing game, need to trade him ASAP

    Unfortunately he is on a large contract. Would have him at minimum or close to 4,5 million, close to what Hayes has got with the kings.

    According to a pretty insider Magic fan...this was a discussed scenario.

    Lakers get: Dwight Howard, Scola
    Lakers give: Gasol, Bynum

    Rockets give: Parsons, Scola, Martin, pick
    Rockets get: Gasol

    Orlando give: Howard
    Orlando gets: Scola, Martin, pick, Parsons

    ++ other incentives to balance things out.

    Oh, and Orl gets Bynum too...


    It's 99% bull****. But it's 4am here and that 1% is looking pretty realistic to me. So there.

    Worth noting that the insider said he got this by talking to one of the players involved, and that player was told by his agent to be prepped for a trade. Trade looks like crap though but apparently the insider is well-respected.

    Oops LAL gets Scola, not Orl....like I said it's probably bull**** but in the case that it happens I get to wave my arms around on the internet for a bit....

    F that trade. Even worse than the Chris Paul scenario.
