Will Rasho be the next "big" to be traded?

[The Notic]

the definition of untouchable

i heard last week we turned down LeBron +1st. everyone knows his post d is weaaaak.

[The_Hater]

RASHO ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE! STOP SPECULATING!

And aren't you speculating by insisting that he's not going anywhere? He's one of the most tradeable guys on the team.

[x-factor-]

unless there Gm is named steve kerr i dont see this deal going through

[Calderoni_8]

If the lakers can get gasol for kwame = about 10 million in cap space rasho and his 8.2 shud get us a stud..

[seanbig]

rasho back to the spurs for expiring contracts....lol

[Anticon]

Rasho plus Garbo's and maybe Parker's expiring contract add up to about 16 million in expiring deals. That's a sweet pot.

What we need is a 2-3 who can score, rebound, play defense. Right now, the only guys that fit that profile who might be available are and who match Rasho's contract and then some are:

Larry Hughes (...)
Corey Maggette
Andrei Kirilenko
Michael Redd

Shaun Marion (perhaps)

I'd take Marion or Kirilenko from that list.

Marion would never come here...

Larry Hughes at this point with his crazy salary, history of injuries, and basic suckage is

Michael Redd is slightly less , but his salary makes it impossible that we acquire him... and he's a big time chucker too, exactly what we don't need...

Kirilenko is very interesting, again he has a high salary, but he might make up for it, especially if he can play SF and cover up for Bargs..

Maggette is overrated IMO, and he can be selfish at times... maybe he can do well on a vet team, like Boston or Detroit, but he's not a good fit age wise and personality wise on this team... there's no dominant personality to keep him in line, and we can't expect him to be the leader...

[power works]

For the bigs that have been traded, one thing they have in common is that they're impact players, all-stars. Rasho is solid, but not in that category. I can't imagine a contending team that he'd help significantly, especially for his salary. He's more valuable as an expiring contract.
