The Los Angeles Lakers recently reached out to the New York Knicks to express interest in Iman Shumpert and have interest in Tyson Chandler as well, according to sources.

The Lakers did not inquire about Chandler when they called the Knicks, but they are reportedly weighing whether to propose a Pau-Gasol-for-Chandler deal. No trade is imminent.

The Knicks are not looking to move Chandler -- several teams have contacted them about him, sources said -- but if a club agreed to take back struggling guard J.R. Smith, the Knicks would consider such a deal.

I'm the first one to say that Tyson is overpaid and overrated but come on,Knicks shouldn't do that deal.
PAU IS DONE.
Also we already have Bargnani and Amare for scoring,we need someone who can defend as well.

Bad trade for both teams, it weakens the Knicks defensively more than it helps them offensively, and disrupts the Lakers' plan for cap alleviation for a 2014/2015 free agency campaign.

Only perspective that would be worthwhile is the angle of immediate salary dump for the Knicks. But, aside from Melo, there is no significant free agents IMO that would instantly transform the Knicks from a very poor team to a contender. They'd suck even more than they do now with that trade.

Would still have too much salary in between Melo/Bargnani/STAT to make any significant moves anyway. See no reason for such a trade.

Hmm. Lakers adding two excellent defenders, but it would place a big offensive load on Kobe. They would be excellent on defense, but they would kind of resemble a Bulls team surrounding Rose...

Perhaps Jordan Hill could fill that role? I would think they would need another scoring threat at PF

It would only make sense for the Knicks if they're rebuilding, which means the Melo era is close to over. I don't think it happens. Also is Tyson Chandler D'Antoni's kind of big? He doesn't value D and couldn't use Dwight Howard, doesn't seem to value Gasol much. Chandler to him is just clogging the paint I bet.

It doesn't even make sense if rebuilding as it leaves us no asset once Gasol is gone. It gives away a player we need, gets a player we don't, pisses off melo, leave us with no picks or young player.

It's Laker wish fulfillment.

The Knicks aren't trading for a player they don't want. We have two PF honestly playing just fine (Amare & Bargs). We have no center. So we trade our center for another PF. Huh?

Chandler would & he's on our team coming back soon so no point in trading him away. An actual good PG would too, but the Lakers don't even have one for themselves.

I don't think you understand. When you have garbage players, you want to trade them for better contracts or expirers to clear out cap space. Anything for garbage makes you better. It's addition by subtraction.

Lakers shouldn't trade at all, what's the point? The system they run doesn't preach defense and even if you bring in defensive players, D'Antoni is still gonna neglect it.

It also adds long term cap space for next year's free agency. Lakers need to just stand pat. If Pau doesn't like being here by the end of the year then he's gone. If Nash wants out I'm sure he can be dealt then but at worst Lakers remain a lottery team. At best they get a great draft pick or make the playoffs and exceed expectations. This does nothing for either side because Nash and Gasol are defensive liabilities and Lakers don't need anything more than expirers.

What about something like:

Laker/Knicks/Raptors 3 way -

Knicks get - Pau / Lowry
Lakers get - Amar'e / Felton
Toronto gets - Nash

+ a couple picks moving around.

Toronto tanks. Lakers get rid of Nash and bitching Pau, set up cap space for 2015.

Yeah let's throw away our cap for the off season by trading for Amare.

They need a point guard. They get one. They get rid of Nash. They get something for Pau instead of losing him for nothing like Dwight.

I'm not saying it's perfect, I couldn't give a f*ck and made that in 2 minutes.

Hmm. Lakers adding two excellent defenders, but it would place a big offensive load on Kobe. They would be excellent on defense, but they would kind of resemble a Bulls team surrounding Rose...

Perhaps Jordan Hill could fill that role? I would think they would need another scoring threat at PF


Xavier Henry is more talented offensive player than anyone on the bulls not named rose

Felton has been one of the worst starting point guards in the NBA 2 out of the last 3 seasons including and particularly this season.

Instead of losing Pau for nothing like Dwight. Right, because having a 33 year old, 40% FG shooting as a center/power forward, $20 million expirer is the same as losing a franchise player in his prime.

You sure you didn't make that in 2 seconds?

Laker fans are freaking insane. You're saying the Lakers would never do the trade cause it would clog your cap, etc. but you are saying at the same time the Knicks would. Why? Knicks overpay massively at times for players, but the Knicks don't trade for players they don't want. They aren't trading good assets for Kaman and Nash, two players who are always hurt. No one trades for injured players. You have to be two levels beyond retarded to think it's true.

Because in the past 13 years the Knicks have been known for making ridiculous moves that never pan out

While in the past 13 years the Lakers have been known for making shrewd moves that almost always pan out.


Therefore the Lakers get the benefit of the doubt. That and the Lakers rarely ever make "panic" moves that only make their team slightly better in the long run & jeopardizes their financial future. Which is what tradin for Chandlder would do.

This isn't analysis of a trade, this is Laker fans taking ridiculous rumors from terrible sources and believing it. I don't care if you historically make good trades, nothing on this thread is a good trade, it's gibberish and nonsense which you'd be nuts to believe.

Anyone who looks at Chris Sheriden's twitter deserves to be banned from watching NBA for at least a year.

I don't neg people for disagreeing with me, that's not me. I neg people for being jerks and annoying me. And sign NIKO.

And you're repeating rumors, your definition of the word "fact" is a bit lacking.
