Pau Gasol Trade to Chicago

[BGriffin's Dad]

ESPN reporting that the Bulls are actively pursuing Gasol, but would probably have to get a 3rd team involved because the Lakers dont want Carlos Loozer

For LA to trade pau they either have to get an all star back or two starter quality players. I don't see either happening

[KB24]

Nothing new, this was reported few weeks ago

[bleedinpurpleTwo]

Gasol for Rose...straight up...do it!!
Hell, Lakers will throw in a 2nd round pick in 2016.
DO IT!!

Send Boozer to Atlanta, send Josh Smith to Lakers.

Dumb. Why the expletive would the Lakers trade Gasol for a worse PF and a scrub SF/SG? Lakers need playmaking ******.

As a Hawk supporter, I dont know if I like that trade but it sounds better than trading Smith for garbage. I would like the Hawks to trade Smith for a real center and then have Horford play the PF though.

Boozer is garbage without a PG.

Deron Williams is not walking through that door (or maybe he is?).

[KB2009Champ]

Why don't people get it.

We ARE NOT TRADING PAU IF WE DONT GET A PG BACK.


Otherwise it would defeat the purpose.

Atlanta must find a sucker to take Marvin Williams in the process.
Lakers?

[ImmortalD24]

[Basketbolero]

Asik and the Charlotte pick would very probably be included but Chicago would have to get creative on this one, exchanging Boozer and some depth for Pau would be :bowdown:

[NBA2k-Monster23]

http://t.co/ol3NVzHB Here is the link..

[Basketbolero]

Lol at everybody posting homer trades :oldlol:

[CelticBaller]

the hawks want a C to move Horford to his true position, and also want to get rid of marvin :hammerhead:

[Reverend Hoops]

http://i44.tinypic.com/98sx0k.jpg

Horrible deal for the Hawks.

[blacknapalm]

i don't see anybody wanting to touch boozer's huge contract. they can ask away but i don't see this trade happening at all

[game3524]

http://i44.tinypic.com/98sx0k.jpg

I would do it if I was the Lakers.

Then turn around and send that first round pick and the TPE for Sessions.

PG-Sessions
SG-Kobe
SF-Deng
PF-Smith
C-Bynum

for real, one team gets the best deal while the others get raped

my trade above does not show Deng leaving.
While Atlanta swaps out Boozer for Josh Smith, they are dumping Marvin Williams and his ugly contract in the process...and get a young center too.

Not even a fan of Josh Smith to begin with. Don't care for Teague (mad overrated.. especially on TNT). Hate Marvin's fatass.

[Rose]

Who doesn't!?!?!?

15.5-8? GOAT PF.

Especially when you factor in career lows across the board!

Would sign immediately in free agency.

Pass.

First time I heard that one.

I never hear Teague being talked about at all.

[bleedinpurpleTwo]

can somebody explain to me why Marvin Williams is still in the league?
does he do ANYTHING good?

Read someone say yesterday that he would be back to 21/10 if he played alongside Deron Williams, so maybe Nets fans want a 21/10 PF?

Hell they have like 6 other former Jazz teammates, why not. We'll even throw in Korver and/or Brewer to sweeten the deal.:oldlol:

The only problem is that eats into Dwight money, which is why I can't see it happening.

[lakers_forever]

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=7euyflq

Lakers get : Boozer and Nash

Bulls get: Gasol and Luke Walton

Suns get: Gibson, Blake and Korver.

Lakers solve the PG issue while still getting a star (or close to) star PF.

Bulls get Gasol without giving up Deng.

Suns let Nash (in his last year of contract) try to win a title while getting a young stud in Gibson and Blake to replace Nash. Also get the shooter Korver.

[All Net]

No deal will happen as Bulls refuse to give up Deng and we don

[flipogb]

forget the Bulls, Hawks just need to give Smith and Teague . then you got Pau at C and Horford at PF.

*** dwight. he doesn't wanna come here so loss is on him

Gasol is not better but BETTER than Boozer but he looks like a cry baby.

he's the opposite of what Chicago is really about. Hard nose, tough, blue collared, hustling, and just keeping it 100 to the fullest.

Dwight is a goof ball but we can change that. :lol

[CelticBaller]

lol why would atlanta want boozer for?

[bleedinpurpleTwo]

^^^ that one is great for Chicago!
Does not improve the Lakers except to get younger....not better.

It would be a step down at the PF position but Raymond Felton is way better than Fisher.

Stop posing as a Lakers fan you mental midget.


No deng (along with a borderline all-star pf not named boozer), no deal.

[NBA2k-Monster23]

Nobody never said any of these deal would take place. The trade machine is for you to look a different ways to acquire players. What proposal do you think make senses? whatever it would be it will also be consider an opinion just like everybody else.

lol im here to trying to tell ya that if you guys want to play GM and make some believable trades, at least make them fair enough. Because all these trades so far are terrible. LOL at you for thinking the blazers would take Korver and Blake for Crawford and Felton. Or the hawks taking boozers fat contract and having him play PF when Horford has been dying to play that position.:lol

First I didn't come up with that trade scenario I just quoted it. I thought it was a good deal from a lakers fan stand point. The only problem i have is people talking about how dumb or terrible something is but it's somebody opinion...

[BlackWhiteGreen]

Garnett, Noah, Brewer, Asik, Felton and Lucas to LAL
Bynum and Korver to Boston
Allen and Gasol to Chicago
Bass and Hamilton to Portland

Who says no? It would never happen, but surely everyone gets better here?

LA gets cap relief whilst still having a good team around Kobe (Noah is cheaper than Bynum and Garnett expires this season), they also get options at SF (Brewer) and PG (Felton).
Boston gets younger and better on the boards, but sacrifices cap space.
Chicago upgrades at C and SG, no brainer really
Portland get Bass at a great price, and SG scoring.

[BGriffin's Dad]

Clippers might be willing to take Boozer if we also get a decent size SG like Brewer..

http://i.imgur.com/QGWIw.jpg

Bulls get a nice frontcourt rotation with Gasol, Noah and Pachulia

Lakers get Josh Smith, a great PG in Mo, and a solid SF in Kyle Korver

Hawks get back a big 7'0 center in Asik which would allow them to play Horford at PF, a great rebounding and defending bench PF in Reggie Evans, a high-energy role player in Barnes and they get $9 million in expiring contracts while also shedding Marvin William's contract.

[FindingTim]

http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=8yrjscj
two separate trades combined in one-- everybody wins

Yeah, Atlanta would trade Josh, Zaza, and Marvin for Asik, Barnes, Foye,and Evans. Are you high?

[LA_Showtime]

We need a point guard. You need a power forward or center. Rose for Gasol?

[Go Getter]

That trade leaves us with Butler at the 2 because Rip never plays, no thanks.

[RazorBaLade]

The real question this trade brings up is does chicago have enough to keep deng but trade for one of the good point guards. Lowry, evans, jennings, holiday, rondo? Scola and kmart? Sessions Beasley and Williams (or one of those)?

It has to be a 3 team trade. It simply has to be. Can they get a legit point guard with what they have?

[BGriffin's Dad]

if the lakers were smart they'd be exploring Gasol trades right now

get a solid PF back and fill out their shitty bench... Josh Smith/Teague, Luol Deng/Gibson, David Lee/Curry, Millsap/Raja Bell, etc...

I disgree

Pau is an ideal fit next to Howard who hasn't had a legit 4 man since Tony Battie, who couldn't get any time next to Howard for whatever reason.

Pau's passing will help out tons, his shooting will open it up for Dwight

And those first two deals are not gonna happen, probably not even the 3rd one either

[ZeN]

Well im glad nothing like this ever happened.. Nash will do wonders for Gasol.

[magnax1]

I don't know about that. Bynum and Gasol was already a pretty awful fit, and Dwight and Gasol is probably worse. More of Gasol spotting up isn't really great for LA.

[blacknapalm]

well, bynum had a back it down post game so gasol was sort of left to stand around and watch. howard is a better PNR player than bynum and he's more reactionary/quick so that should play right into gasol's hands. i think we'll see gasol in the post more next season and he'll excel in PNR with nash

I agree about Dwight's pick and roll game, but it's still a pretty awful fit. Ideally they're both primarily low block post players.

[longtime lurker]

I don't know about that. Bynum and Gasol was already a pretty awful fit, and Dwight and Gasol is probably worse. More of Gasol spotting up isn't really great for LA.

lolwut? Dwight and Gasol is a better fit than Bynum simply because Dwight can score just by being active. He'll probably get half his points for lobs, put backs, cleaning up and finishing passes. From the olympics I see Gasol's been working on his 3 point shot. Dwight's also a better passer out of the post than Bynum so Gasol should feed off open looks all day.
