After Dec. 15 to include Ebanks. This assumes Chandler elevates his play in the next month:

Den out/LAL in:
-Chandler (5.93m)
-Brewer (3.243m)
-Mozgov (3.14m)
-Koufos(3.0m)
-Hamilton(1.12m)
+total(16.435m)


LAL out/ Den in:
-Gasol (19m)
-Clark (1.24m)
-D. J-O (473k)
-Ebanks (1.05m)
+total (21.7m)

Use of the Nene TPE seems to be required for Clark and Ebanks.

Why?

Lal cuts salary, big time. Instant and future savings. LAL gets more depth from the trade. Pau/Dwight is not an amazing fit. This is a move for D'antoni. He gets to start three wings again. MWP and chandler are plenty physical and Hamilton is elite on the boards for his position. Chandler has a reunion with pringles, who he was very good under, playing at PF no less.

Denver consolidates while leaving their core intact. Gasol is why they make the trade. This wipes out wing depth, and replaces it with DJO, Ebanks and Clark, just warm bodies. Fournier would get some time.

And then Denver becomes the better team.

No from LA.

No, that's a whole lot of flotsam for Pau Gasol. Lakers aren't exactly OKC in needing to cut salary either. Vote: No

Say bye bye to Denver's depth.

No.

Nope, a 3rd team is definitely needed to make anything like this work.

That is terrible for LA anyway you look at it. Great value for the nuggets but who is coming off the bench now.
