    A - Sure. Every once in a while I hear Pau Gasol's name mentioned in trades. The last six champions in the NBA have all had a player who is very good with his back to the basket. And unless somebody is offering us Shaquille O'Neal or Kobe Bryant or a player of that magnitude, I would never be willing to trade Gasol. Another player in my mind is James Posey. Any coach would love to have him on his team. I see him getting better as a player. His contributions can't be measured by numbers. I talked to him after the season was over and he's really disappointed. </div>

    I didn't check the link, but yes, Posey and Gasol are essentially untouchable in my mind.

    I've been through this before though, and really don't feel like rehashing it again, at least right now.

    Getting rid of James Posey and Pau Gasol can only make the Grizzlies a worse team.
