I agree with this dude. Trading Gasol won't fix our issues. For us to trade him, we would have to win the trade. Love, Blake Griffin, etc which we obviously wont get any miracle trade like that. Worst comes to worst, he'll be a 2nd unit player mainly and a backup C with Jamison starting the 4. Another shooter on the floor to create more one on one opportunities for Dwight, Kobe, and Nash.

We are not going to win any Gasol trades because teams don't like us, and they want to rob us.

The majority of our starting rotation has been built on trades favoring us. Divac for Kobe. Kwame Brown for Gasol. Bynum's knees for D12. A pack of Trident for Nash. We got CP3 for LO and Gasol last year! Someone took Luke Walton! I think teams love trading with us, imo

Teams love dealing with us because they always get our expiring deals for the star they no longer want.

What about when we trade stars away for expiring deals that we don't want.

That is an interesting idea and probable evolution of this thing.

he needs to play with the 2nd unit if we're keeping him

Gasol, Blake, Hill in a package to Utah for Jefferson, Hayward and young talent. Morris is our only guard to push the pace he should get minutes behind nash! we lose nothing by adding jefferson (better from 12-15ft) and allow D12 room to operate. Al Jeff is also better with a pocket pass finishing on the move (floaters etc). Hill for some backcourt depth or sign pietrus. Hayward brings lil D youth shooting and can learn some space clearing moves from nash and KB24 while backing up world peace. CHAMPIONSHIP!!! Utah has too many 4's Gasol could be more productive at 5 ala KG & Bosh both sides win.

Don't think Utah wants another big.
