Hey all. Mr. Broussard from ESPN has been reporting lately that the Lakers are certainly listening to offers for Pau Gasol, so my obvious question is would you take him in Portland? What would be your optimum roster situation if we had Pau? I feel like we'd have to give both picks, but then again LA is looking to win now, so maybe we can keep at least 1. Do you even think we can muster an offer to get him? I feel like he has 3-4 years left of championship caliber play left in him, so what if we swallowed his contract, and perhaps picked up Nash with a 2 year deal? Both can end their careers playing for a hopeful contender. Would we Contend in the west with a very primitive projection of this questionable transaction (if it ever goes through, which is very very very slim in my opinion):

Nash-Smith

Matthews-Williams (One of them might have to be shipped as part of the trade)

Batum-?????*-Babbitt

LA-?????*

Pau-Przybilla?

*The question marks can either be FA fill-ins or our picks, whichever seems fitting to your proposed offer
