Interesting Article About Sixers Getting Gasol 

Post#1 » by THFM » Fri Jan 11, 2008 4:51 pm

Marc Narducci of the Philadelphia Inquirer fills us in on an intriguing trade proposal by a blogger to land Pau Gasol: "There is a passionate Sixers fan named Dean who has proposed for a while in Blogsville to trade Samuel Dalembert, Rodney Carney and a first round pick to Memphis for Pau Gasol and Kyle Lowry. Whether anybody agrees or not with this proposal, let's be honest, it's an interesting suggestion. The salaries would work out and that is a start. While we're not as enamored with Lowry as Dean, the thought of getting Gasol would be intriguing."

The thought of a midget backcourt of Lowry and Lou Will is tantilizing. They would be quick as quick, and they would be able to pester on defense.

Lowry, Lou Will, Iggy, Thad and Gasol is not bad (assuming Miller is dealt)

However, the bench leaves a lot to be desired.

No Dalembert would be dealt and that's what I hate. It's just going to make us have NO legit Center on the whole team...

Well, at least there is a guy who can be a legit scoring threat in the post.

Getting Lowry along with Gasol.

I can't really see Lou being a point guard.

I'd trade Sam for Gasol any day of the week.

But this is still a trade proposal without a real rumor behind it.
