please. they were hardly a playoff team with Kobe
It's not too late for Gasol & the gang to prove they can win it without Kobe. He won it back-2-back not once, but, twice with nary a one of them. Quid pro quo.
Chop/chop.

Your capitulation is duly noted.
Your refusal to acknowledge what you saw over the course of an 82 game season is duly noted.
Only pussies and assholes beg.

They should keep both Dwight and Pau, build a team around them adding an good SG and amnesty Kobe. On the other hand, Kobe brings more revenue even at $30M salary.
They will be paying much, much more than 30 million for Kobe, most of which goes to the NBA

This is most likely could be a possibility, especially since Dantoni has no place for him in his offense and trading for other contracts would not save them much money. After watching the charmin soft performance of Splitter in game 1, I think the Spurs should just let him go, keep the cap space, and attempt to bid Gasol off waivers. It would be a crazy gamble but it's not like they'll win anything anyways by paying Splitter $10 million.
The thing with the prospect of picking up Pau is he seems to be a really loyal guy who would love to resign with his current team. He never asked out of Memphis, he never asked out of LA, and he would love the international flavor of the Spurs team. The problem with the waiver is that it is blind bidding, not like an auction. Every team puts in one bid, and nobody knows what anybody else bid. How much would the Spurs be able/willing to bid for Pau? His contract is 19 million, so thats the max any team could bid, but would the Spurs be willing to bid 11 million? 13? Will another team throw 15? We'd have to renounce our rights to Splitter in order to place a decent bid on Pau, and that would throw away our ability to match offers for Splitter in the event we get outbid for Pau. While I'm already dreaming of a Pau pickup, we should realize its highly unlikely the Lakers amnesty Pau. They'd rather send him in some package for Kevin Love, who is likely to bolt out of Minnesota anyway, and the Wolves are probably aware of that, and would love to pair Pau with fellow Spaniard Rubio.
And then, even if Pau is amnestied, I doubt the Spurs brass makes that sort of a risk by renouncing Splitter's rights.
Anyone can have Beasley for free. He's a cancer. We are better, significantly, for every minute he sits on the bench. He has blatantly stopped listening to coaches and teammates. He thinks he knows better than everyone and will not take criticism nor help. Him being a priority last year just got Lance Blanks fired. You want him? Take him. You want to take free-agent-to-be Gortat (who played his best ball with Nash) with him, AND give us Gasol?
OKAY!!
You must be one of those dumb s who believes everything he reads. In that case... you're a got
Boston is one of the better run organizations in this league for a reason dumbass. They don't make dumb trades like trading their best player for Pau f'n Gasol. No matter how badly these Kobe suckers dream about it... it ain't happening.
Shut up got
an expiring contract will have considerable trading value and stern will doing everything to help the lakers get another trash-for-fortune deal like the one they did in 08 before he leaves office imho
Sup ?? Any recent penis enlargement medication available?
Not sure brah, didn't know you were looking![]()
please. I'm not the zipperhead with a newborn baby penis.![]()
rondo is overrated and the celtics would probably not make any deal with the lakers due to their past rivalry imho. D-Rose will be a much better option for them lakers, a healthy and mentally ready Rose would be twice the player rondo is tbh.
