I can't actually think of a single player that makes $10 million or more that I'd want less than Boozer

Lakers have no interest in Boozer, so any trade for Gasol would have to include 3rd team. As of now, sources say #Bulls not finding one.

What if it was Watson, Deng, Gibson?

Love Pau but thats a lot of holes filled and guys that fit Brown's system. Defense, nice shooting and spacing, hustle.

Watson/Blake
Kobe/Fish
Deng/MWP
Gibson/McBob
Bynum/Murph

you could even play MWP at PF a lot of the time and play Barnes. Thats a tough hard nosed lineup.

I want no part of Boozer, I'd prefer to pay someone else that money. I REALLY don't like Boozer. :nonono:

unless its the Watson computer that could calculate a perfect follow up that gets LA more talent, no way. Deng is solid and all, but he's no Pau and Watson/Gibson does not make up the gap. Not a fan myself.
