    Maybe Neil is trying to get Memphis to be a facilitator in the Davis deal, and send Gasol to New Orleans so the Blazers don't have to send as much

    Ripping? It's called posting an opinion. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean i am "ripping" anyone uf so then by your posts wouldn't that be you ripping me?

    Whatever. I used to read your posts on O-Live. Those posts were opinionated - which is great. Your posts here tend to just be contrarian.

    Anthony Davis' agent....."Anthony Davis is available"

    Neil...." Get Memphis on the phone. I want Marc Gasol"

    This works in the trade machine, and would also need picks included by teams.

    Portland Gets:

    Anthony Davis
    Solomon Hill

    Memphis Gets

    Meyers Leonard
    Moe Harkless
    Darius Miller

    New Orleans Gets

    CJ McCollum
    Marc Gasol

    Tell your doctor/dealer you need your meds adjusted. :ygrin::wink:

    Why would New Orleans want a 34 year old center? Why do the Blazers get all the good stuff while the Grizzlies get shit on?

    Gasol actually has an opt out this summer. I'd have to imagine he wouldn't give up $25.6 million next year but sometimes at that age players look for one last long term contract with more years even if it is less per year.

    I know its a wild trade and it can be adjusted to make it more fair. New Orleans would want to take Gasol to stay relevant after trading Davis.

    The Blazers always get shit on. Some one elses turn.

    Seriously though, the Grizzlies want to get rid of Conley and are open to trading Gasol, they want to go young. With Conley and Gasol New Orleans doesn't have to start over. Memphis gets youth and picks. Win/win.

    No you're completely wrong because the Pelicans would still be terrible. With Conley and Gasol the Grizzlies are 20-31. Going to a new team isn't going to make the Pelicans relevant when they are pretty much giving up all their good players in this trade anyway. Besides, Gasol can leave at the exact same time Anthony Davis can so they'd be in the same boat of losing him for nothing. Memphis could get better for both trading them individually anyway and not having to take on shit like Leonard, Hill, and Turner.

    I think Drummond is a better fit for them than Gasol.

    Ok. Jeez. I'm just trying to come up with a reason for Gasol and Neil being mentioned in the same sentence besides being traded here. I don't want him here. That means Nurk is most likely gone. No thank you.

    Don't see Pels getting or wanting either, but I'm just going to put this out there...

    I'd rather have two (maybe one) years of Gasol than 3 of Drummond...easily.

    I've always found it to be sage advice not to get too salty about these things.
