re: Hornets possibly interested in Pau Gasol...

Good player but doesn't make any sense for building.

I'm confused about this train of thought? Why stay in rebuild mode if you have a move that could make you a contender in the West right now? Do you think Eric Gordon wants us to make a move and try to win now?
I understood the tankers to an extent but this is just baffling? Are you suggesting we should try and tank another year and hope to get lucky in the draft again? Are you just saying you want to wait and try to make a splash in FA after next season?

It isn't like he would tie down our books, Gasol is only a two year deal and would be an expiring contract after next season, if the Lakers are willing to trade a top 10 big man for the #10 pick in the draft + a player that we are just going to pay to go away you don't even think twice about it. Hell i would even throw in a second round pick for next year (assuming we even have one)
