How big of a deal could we give Marc Gasol?

Or would we have to try a sign and trade?

If we make a CP3/Okafor trade sometime this year probably up to the max.

Mid level exception. Would be better to do a sign and trade.

He's going to get a near max deal, me thinks.

Next season is what I meant.

If we trade Okafor/CP3 we could get him. It'll take a max contract to get him to NOLA. That's probably more than he's worth, but I don't have a problem overpaying a young, legit 7-footer.
If we don't trade CP3/Okafor, we won't be able to get him.

I'm a CP3 fan, think he's the best pg in the game but if we can trade CP3 + Okafor and end up with Gasol, we'd be a much better team.

I don't think Memphis would do a deal for CP3/Okafor (or at least not a good enough deal that the Hornets would accept).
That's a shitload of money between two players. They already have Gay with a max contract. Plus, they have Thabeet and that Iranian center, so I doubt they'd want Okafor.
My hopes is that we get rid of CP3/Okafor for young, solid talent (with star potential) and some cap flexibility.

theoretically, if he doesn't get a max deal, we may be able to get him next year

I didn't mean trade them to Memphis, I just meant get rid of them to get Gasol.

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see what affect the new CBA has.
Posted on 7/13/10 at 10:03 pm to SlowFlowPro
he'd be an all-star with a real PG.

The problem with trading Paul is West opting out. He is gone if he thinks the team is going through a youth movement. The Hornets might have to move West, Paul, Okafor and Posey this year. The next GM has a big decision to make either make a run at a top player to pair with Paul or trade Paul along with Posey and Okafor to get lots of cap flexibility.
Posted on 7/13/10 at 10:05 pm to VA LSU fan
If West opts out, then that's about 9 million dollars free plus Brackins.
Posted on 7/13/10 at 10:06 pm to VA LSU fan
West will probably opt out regardless. He's worth more than he makes, and his salary actually descends each year, I believe.
Posted on 7/13/10 at 10:11 pm to Charles Bronson
Brackins may have been drafted in because they believe West will opt out.

Not going to happen
Marc is going to team up with his brother Pau and return to the Lakers

ETA: Why would a 7' Spaniard come to NOLA? I bet he's miserable in Memphis. I hope he likes ribs (he has to, it's impossible not to).

He needs to be a Hornet. He would demand a fairly large contract though
