Why for each teams
Chicago needs a post scorer and Gasol is a poor mans KG. He will give you like 80% of his production. They give up Gordon who might not be the best fit for their team, and I believe they would be a better team if they managed to get a legit swing player who can play the two effectively on both ends of the floor in the draft by drafting OJ Mayo. Thomas for whatever reason can't find his niche in the Bulls and he would be buried furthered in the rotation if Gasol came along. They also get a prospect who the Spurs organization is very high on in Ian. They Spurs can also send a 2nd round draft pick via the Raptors in this upcoming draft to Chicago.
Memphis wants expiring contracts well they get them with a first round draft picks by the Spurs, this year and in 2010. I think it is unrealistic for someone to take on Cardinal. In this trade they get flexibility with the expiring contacts and several picks from the Spurs in order to start over with a team that is losing money.
San Antonio. Well we need some energy off the bench and we have had problems with matching up small with certain teams. Thomas helps us do that at the cost of 2 first round draft picks and a 2nd rounder.
Please tell me how bad/good it is for each team and if there could be any modifications that can make it a better or more equal trade. Any comments are welcomed.
. My team needs some type of active big man who we can play small ball with given that Horry is as old as dirt. I figured that some draft picks might make it worthwhile for the Grizz given that the Bulls aren't going to give them any draft picks.
