Honestly they're in a tough situation
Gasol about to opt out and likely gone. Noah is 30 y/o, has showed signs to be declining and wants his last fat big contract. Gibson never really had the chance to be a starting PF in CHI but he is already 30 y/o.
Not really sure if there's something they could do to compete with the Cavs as long as they have that albatross contract of D-Rose.
No one we would want to trade for these guys would match cap numbers.
Gasol at $7.5M is pretty good value for a win-now team.
Edit: you said "we"'as in the Spurs. I mistook your post as saying that nobody would be willing to trade for one of those three at their cap numbers. Noah would be a salary dump if nothing else.
Dallas should really make a move for Gasol to at least give Nowitzki the best shot for post season. Pachulia + Powell should be enough for that trade.
Did you read the article? They are looking for wings tbh.
Their interior defense would be nonexistent in that scenario tbh. Gasolin Dallas would be a nightmare though provided they got someone to defend the paint at some point; would propel them to a dark horse contender.
Dallas ready to give up on Parsons? They can shed his deal and Noah coming off the bench and finishing games with Dirk would be pretty ing scary.

they were ready to give up on him when he signed that contract. Cuban only offered it to try to over Morey. If they flipped Parsons and spare parts for Noah and Gasol (and found an above average defensive wing) I'd my pants.
Somebody bump that 100+ page Gasol thread.
Would be awesome for Mavs if they pulled that off.
As for the Bulls, Parsons is a white Dunleavy that can sometimes put it on the floor.
Bonmer for Gasol.
McBuckets is better than Dunleavy & Parson isn't going to move the needle. They should have jumped on Batum or Lamb over the summer considering they were given away for peanuts. They should inquiring about Markieff Morris who is basically being dangled for any takers (Taj work), they would have to start McBuckets at the wing & become an all-out offensive juggernut.
An interesting trade would be shipping out Rose (Eric Gordon was his AAU teammate & Davis is from Chicago) for Tyreke/Jrue Holiday (Jrue starts at PG/Tyreke plays 6th man while McBuckets starts) since both teams have nothing to lose if it doesn't workout (all of them have 2 yrs remaining on their deals): http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=jgfb7yw

Who the is going to start at the wing for the Mavs? JJ Barea
Not straight up 2 teams deal i mean, i think Utah & Minnesota have some up & coming perimeter players and they might be open for a trade, especially if given incentive like a pick or two.
The Spurs are too stacked at the 4/5 to make much use of a Gasol rental and Noah's career is in free fall. Gibson is a nice player but Diaw just makes so many great plays I can't envision giving Gibson his minutes.
We could offer Bonner, Mccallum, and West for him.
Just for s and giggles, I pulled off a successful 3 team trade via espn's trade machine with the Bulls, Hawks and Spurs where we get Sefolosha and Tavares, Hawks get Gasol, Kyle Anderson, and Rasual Butler (this would only work after the 27th), and the Bulls get Bazemore, then Boban and McCallum. We'd get a decent and young big with upside along with another wing with length who can defend and we can throw at the Dubs. The Hawks get a reliable big who isn't fragile like Tiago, a young wing who Bud can groom into their Diaw and a vet wing who knows the system. The Bulls get a solid wing they've been looking for, a giant freak of nature, and another pg they can use when Rose breaks down again. Humor me with this for a bit...
Joakim Noah is a large expiring contract ($11.3 mil) ... Spurs could trade Green and Anderson for him and have that money next summer to sign a quality player. Do it Mitch
Don't see how anyone has the time to do pointless like that
Parsons has been coming off the bench. Mavs have been running three guards with Williams/Felton/Matthews pretty much all season.Who the is going to start at the wing for the Mavs? JJ Barea
Lol, it only took 5 minutes.Don't see how anyone has the time to do pointless like that
who are the bulls targeting?
Spurs are already stacked in the bigs department with 4 quality guys in Duncan/LMA/Diaw/West. Really no point in going after any other bigs, especially if it involves giving up a valuable asset (which would likely be the case).
Trying to win a championship with Kyle Anderson or Jonathon ing Simmons as your starting SG or playing Manu 35MPG and ending up with no SG
