    <span class="News"><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Could Bulls forward Andres Nocioni be on his way to Memphis in a trade for Pau Gasol?</span></p>

    <span class="News">A league source suggested any talks between the Bulls and Grizzlies are in the preliminary stages. But Memphis general manager Chris Wallace flew to Argentina in recent days to meet with Nocioni, sources confirmed.</span></p>

    <span class="News">One theory is the Bulls would be willing to send Nocioni, first-round draft pick Joakim Noah, backup point guard Chris Duhon and filler to the Grizzlies in exchange for the 7-foot Gasol, who averaged 20.8 points and 9.8 rebounds last season.</div></span></p>

    I could live with that trade</p>

    I hope the Bulls get him and Pau brings his steller playoff record with him to the east.

    Gasol would make the Bulls favorites to win it all IMO even over San Antonio, so I hope it doesn't happen for the east's sake.</p>

    I don't know why Paxon didn't pull the trigger last time, seemed worht it to me even if it was giving up a little much. </p>

    I agree that they would be the favorites if they were to get Pau but that would change if say the Celtics get Garnett (pierce, allen, garnett).

    Supposedly, Memphis almost traded Gasol to Atlanta on draft night for the 3rd pick and some of Atlanta's young talent but backed away at the last second. I think it would have to take Deng/Gordon to bring him to Chicago.

    Just remember, the GM that Memphis hired is pretty freaking dumb

    Our GM is smart when he's not sitting on his hands... or purse... or whatever the hell it is he's doing.
