    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">''That's not true,'' Skiles said. ''I know everybody has a job to do, but that's unfair to everybody. I don't want anybody to rat out their sources or whatever, but is it really a source or just made up? It could be my grandmother told me that because she read it on draftexpress[.com].''

    Gordon gave Gasol about as strong an endorsement as possible when the Bulls' leading scorer said the team would be a legitimate contender for the NBA Finals if it landed Gasol.

    ''He's like the missing piece to this team -- a big man who can really score consistently,'' Gordon said. ''That's probably the only thing we're really lacking. If we got that, we could definitely be contenders.'' </div>

    Good to hear, but he's not really the one that makes the trades though...

    He has major say in all decisions that are made though. Paxson will not make a move without consulting Skiles first.
