    The Lakers don't seem to want him around anymore.

    Yeah, he hasn't has a good playoffs, but Laker fans seem quick to throw him under the bus despite everything he's done for them in the past.

    Yeah cause Andrew Bynum is always so healthy?

    They need to cut back on his minutes, and keep him barring some great trade.

    If they lose on Sunday, I don't think he'll be a Laker next year despite all he's done for the organization. I would give up any combination of Camby, Miller, Batum, Rudy, AJ, and Babbitt for Pau. Do the Lakers want any of those guys?

    If he goes to Orlando for Howard? OMG.

    It's baffling. Bunch of ungrateful bitches.

    You had to do it, didn't you? The thought of my fav player (Nic) in LA makes me mad.

    Camby and Miller are pretty up there in mileage. I don't see an enticing offer.

    Pau can only be traded for junk. It's in his contract from back at Memphis.

    I'd take Marc Gasol over anything offered in this horrible trade though.

    I wonder if the Pau Gasol trade was the right one? I mean the Lakers gave them their first rounder, which = Little brother Gasol.

    Funny enough... In my 2K11 season, Aldridge got hurt so I traded Rudy, Camby, and Miller to the Lakers for Pau, Theo, and Roger Mason. Then Aldridge came back and I traded Pau to Dallas for Dirk. With Mills/Roy/Dirk/Aldridge/Oden, I waltzed to the #1 seed and the title. Dirk is money in that game. Give him the ball, square up and shoot over anyone from anywhere and he usually makes it.

    I dunno; Batum would play very well in the lakers offense.

    Not if they want to defend, Marc is the better overall player and they need to win now.

    You speak as if you have a chance in hell of getting Marc Gasol.

    A Marc Gasol level player? Uh yes he should be attainable, if not don't trade Pau.
