    We were too good at shooting and defense last year. We are now looking for guards who can't shoot and old white guys in the paint.

    This sounds like way more than a desperation plan. This is insane lol

    28? Have you seen his game even? It's not really based in elite athleticism.. He's more of a point forward type. Some odd love baby that Iggy and Livingston had.

    He's not gonna come here when the Spurs come calling, especially when we can't even overpay now

    I don't get the age thing, but he would instantly be our best big by far, and we could be signing him with the tacit understanding that we'll look to trade him to a contender for younger prospects at the trade deadline.

    Given how Parsons went to Memphis, I am warming up to signing Gasol.

    The guy is a pretty good stretch 5 and he brings really good offense. He's a joy to watch at that end.

    Yeah I'm sure that was part of the offer...we are going to sign you for yop money then trade you to the Spurs in Febuary for patty mills. Matt Bonner, and the retirement of Greg popovich

    At 35, what is the plan going forward? He's just a stop gap and certainly not someone that is going to help put you over the top to win a title. He's still very productive even given his age but this just guarantees Portland remains in basketball purgatory....a Playoff team that isn't a contender.
