According to Woj's The Vertical.

He's on a bargain for someone in the playoffs picture. Who bites?

ha seriously. Although the NBA wont veto the trade first, to make the relationship even more screwed up before he gets traded again.

I wanted him for the Spurs, but Aldridge is younger. He would be awesome next to Timmy though. Can still score/rebound and defend the rim effectively + he's an above average passer.

If Pau had played for Pop we would be talking of one of the best passing bigs ever not just an above average passer.

Pau is one of the best passing bigs ever. Who doesn't think that?

Pau and Butler for Kanter and Waiters.

They have to at least explore a trade in their situation. This isn't surprising. Doesn't mean a trade will happen though.

Two garbage can player to match their franchise. OKC gets stacked enough to contend with Golden State. :confusedshrug:

They'd only have four true rotational bigs.

Westbrook | Augustin
Roberson | Morrow | Waiters
Durant | Singler
Ibaka | Collison
Gasol | Kanter | Adams

Playoff Roster:

Westbrook | Augustin
Roberson | Morrow
Durant | Singler
Ibaka
Gasol | Kanter

I saw this mentioned in an ESPN article or something. Why is Chicago shopping their second best player? Have they given up on winning anything? :biggums:

I feel like a lot of people in this thread haven't seen Pau play in the last few months.

He's slower than ever. Super lethargic. Doesn't rotate fast enough to even contest layups/dunks. Too soft to take charges. Gets out-hustled on the boards by small forwards and even guards sometimes. His offensive production/IQ is HEAVILY over matched by his laziness and lack of intensity.

That being said, he'd make a great 6th man on the bench.

Bulls "fans" are such haters. Can't appreciate their best active player and second best overall player carrying them to the playoffs.

See what I did there? :kobe:

If OKC gets Pau without giving up anything substantial and still can't win the title then KD is gone

I would love to see Pau go to OKC. He deserves to be treated with class after being run out of town by Jimmy Buss and making the mistake of signing with the embarrassing Bulls.

He should have signed with OKC or San Antonio anyway, but hindsight is 20/20, though it was well known at the time everywhere (outside of Chicago) that Rose was done and just gettin dem checks.
