could we still get marc GASOL? this year or the next

pg- DWILL/Brown
SG-cj/bell/hayward
SF-AK/bell/hayward
PF-jefferson/sap/gasol
C-jefferson/sap/gasol


thats elite status right there

all of them young well except bell.

So if we actually got Gasol, you would have him be the 3rd string center?

 

[Marty McFly]

Not only that, but Jefferson will be starting at both power forward and center. Sweet!

 

[DutchJazzer]

lol
no its actualy a trio of those 3

depending on matchups and hot hands.

for example when we play lakers jazz go with gasol and jefferson since that would be a better matchup vs lakers then gasol sap or jefferson sap.
but if we play a team where stoudemire is center a lineup of sap/jefferson would be better

Due to the contract the Grizzlies gave Gay, I'd think they'd have to shed some payroll sometime, somehow.

It's be interesting if the Jazz explored a trade involving AK, a TPE, and receiving Gasol in return, though I doubt that'd happen until the trade deadline.

Fixed.

The only way I see us getting Markie G, is if we give up AK's expiring contract. That would be fine, leaving BELL AND HAYWARD to start(because CJ will be outplayed by Hayward this year; Book it), but still leaves us very thin at the 2/3. Maybe keep Price or Gaines around and let Brown play more 2.

 

[DutchJazzer]

give up aks contract for what?

gasol makes 3.5 million. and is also expiring

so aks contract is not needed maybe a TPE and some draft picks

 

[Scat]

Nothing more than a pipe dream.

 

[retroevo]

I'd give up rights to Tomic + future picks to bring Gasol here... and maybe cash consideration.

 

[DutchJazzer]

it actually seems imposible to get marc. memphis not really in need for cap relief maybe get a 3rd team who wants cap relief involved, to send talent to memphis

can a tpe be used in a 3 team deal?

 

[DutchJazzer]

maybe a team who wants to take a change on slowkur

 

[DutchJazzer]

wow

memphis trying ot be cheap

Xavier Henry is sitting out the summer league because he doesn't have a contract with the Griz. NBA teams have a rookie salary scale that they follow for 1st rounders, they can pay 80% to 120% of that scale, most teams pay 120%. The Griz have decided not to pay 120% and thus we have an NBA holdout.
