    No way Gasol comes to Portland. We're cash money leverage.

    I actually like the idea of Gasol, other than I assume it means we cut ties with every young RFA, which makes me ask, "What'd be the point?"

    We'd be better off staying status quo and letting these guys gel over a few years than to dive in on an aging (though quite productive) vet PF for a few extra wins in the short-term.

    Lot of teams are obviously not concerned with his age. They are all looking at the 16-11-4-2 stat line from last year.
    I have to admit, it's not bad for a 35 year old.

    Supposedly the Warriors are about to get Durant. Does that mean we get Bogut?

    Bogut makes 11. I guess I can handle him for a year. It would be worth it to watch him takes some cheap shots on the Warriors players.

    Warriors get Durant.
    Spurs get Gasol.
    We get BOBAN!!!!
    Or maybe Ezeli. Or Boban AND Bogut - call them BoBo.
