    The Lakers would catapault themselves into the Thunder/Miami/Bulls conversation - probably higher due to the pedigree of the franchise.

    Lowry is one helluva PG, and Scola is exactly what they need to compliment Bynum.... Add Barnes and Artest platoon on James, and the heat have no chance.

    Nothing official yet. If this happens though, they are the favorites to win the West. But I still think the Heat and Bulls are better teams.

    Fox sports is now confirming that Gasol has been traded, but didn't include the team he was traded to... I think this thread is on point.

    They need a good PG, not another forward. If I am Knicks' manager, I will give Lakers Stoudmaire and Melo for free.

    exactly my thoughts. Trade away a top 3 PF in the NBA for two role players and all of a sudden they are favs. Wow. Laker fans are more delusional than Philly phans.

    the rockets GM is one of the best in the business. he finds real value in players. that is why they can't get below .500 to get a good draft pick. he is too good for a team that needs to tank.

    Why are the rockets so in love with pau? Would be a terrible trade for them. Lowry is the most underrated player in the league.

    Gasol plays D and rebounds, Scola does neither

    You must be new to basketball, because that statement is 100% wrong. The inverse is true. Only thing Gasol is better than Scola at is a polished offensive game. Scola is a hustle player.

    Scola is a terrible defender and is not rebounding like he used too.

    I must of missed the memo where being a hustle player made you a good defender.

    Pau is better than scola at every single aspect of the game. Its not even comparable.

    Gasol is a garbage defender. Sorry - the guy is as soft as Amar'e on D.

    Hustle is half the game on D, especially when boarding. Does anyone play basketball anymore? Seriously, rebounding is at least 90% hustle/determination.

    Don't get me wrong, I'd take Gasol every day and twice on Sunday over Scola. But throw in one of the most efficient players in the game, at the most important position in the game currently, and it's not even close. If this trade happens, Rockets lose.

    scola is 6'8, chalky. Gasol will always be a better rebounder because of his size. Scola's rebounding is down to something like 6 a game this year.

    Scola is scrappy, but do you watch him? He's not a good defender at all. Not saying pau is either.

    Would still be a great land for the lakers because kyle Lowry is a top 6 point guard. No clue why Houston would even consider this.
