Would love to see a 3way with LAL- Minn - Mem where we end up with Gay + AK.. Pau + Ron to Minne, Dwill2 + whatever else Minne gives up to Mem.

Pau and MWP has nowhere near the value of Gay and AK47

Minny should also send Rubio to LAL to even this trade up.

Hahah owners fooling the mass public again, they're the ones who actually voted to have these tax penalties.

Why? Since they wanted an convenient excuse not to spend money. Now they can justify their cuts with "but the tax penalties!", but they never even wanted to spend the money even without the tax penalties. Acting like victims in this whole situation.

Why don't you people open up your eyes and see that 90% owners don't care about contending, but just want to generate as much profit as possible.

Hollinger makes sense for shopping Gay, but Zbo has good stats. His 20.1 PER is best on the team.


Well doesn't it make sense to shop the guy who can net the best return?

Also, Randolph is the oldest guy on the team. Seems logical to trade that guy away.


Zbo's game isn't based on athleticism, I don't see any reason it has to decline with age.

I don't see SA going "Tim Duncan is old, better trade him!"

The Kings haven´t got a package to aquire Randolph!
Some 1st Rd Picks and T-Rob is okay, but they haven´t any interesting expiring contract!

ZBo stays at Memphis

It's this sort of blatant douchbaggery and arrogance that makes people hate Laker fans, and their franchise. Mind you not all Laker fans are like this, but its self-important, morons like you that spoil it for everyone.

I hope you're proud of yourself.

Is that why they also increased the minimum salary (gradually) to 90% of the cap IIRC?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ That 90% rule was put in to ensure that all these handouts the small market teams are getting from teams like Lakers, knicks, bulls, etc get spent on rosters as opposed to those owners just pocketing the handouts. Probably also agreed upon collectively by owners to ensure that no teams are able to slack off on the BRi payout

Gay is understandable but now Z-Bo. He's got a PER over 20 and a FG% over 50 so I don't get this especially with the record they have. If they move Gay fine but give this team at least one more run. I think they've earned it.

Man, look. We are struggling to score 80 points at HOME. If we keep that up, we'll be a first round exit. I love me some Z-Bo, but Grizz need to get out of the bad contracts while they can. Z-Bo is a beast, I don't deny that. I just hope the Grizz don't keep living off miracle shots in the 2011 Playoffs...

I guess someone needs to be repeat it again...

THEY ARE NOT TRADING BOTH PLAYERS NOR ARE THEY BLOWING THE TEAM UP.


Any deal this team makes will give them the opportunity to still contend, but have some flexibility, picks, etc. People was acting the same way when OKC traded away Harden before the season. If Heisley was the mastermind behind doing this, then I would consider it being a salary dump and messing up the teams chances of doing anything.

I have a little more trust in Hollinger, Wallace and Levien. You think they're that stupid to piss the fans off by blowing the team up or decreasing the teams chances, when the fans have waited this long to be in this position?

Gasol for Asik swap makes sense for both teams.
