I've been trying to get a deal that memphis fans like for a year to get gasol-Here's how I see your situation

-right now, you're going nowhere
-you have a bunch of nice young talent
-you're losing a lot of $ and in a small market
-you want to become a running team

Gasol doesn't seem to fit for many reasons. He's not a superstar, and he's having a down year. But, of course, he's a great asset.

Therefore:
Gasol for TThomas, Thabo, our #1 (no protection), our 2010 #1 and we send JSmith to someone else, either for a TE (the suns would work) or an expiring (orlando would work)

I see TThomas as a future stud, he just needs time and a place to run. You get a top 5 pick again (yours), our pick (?) A TON of $ relief and a chance to build to face Portland in the future of the West

Conley/Lowrey
Mayo/Thabo
Gay/TThomas
TThomas/Warrick
Darko/SSWift

I then see another deal to dump cardinal to free up more $
MMiller/Cardinal/Stoud to miami (who needs to shake it up, MMiller would be perfect for them) for JWill, Ricky (who you cut) and DWright

So, am I way off?

You're way off in that there is a Gasol trade thread for this.

didn't see it
