Gasol is a RFA. What motivation would the Grizzlies have not to extend him ?

Well, there in a position that they don't have to offer him max money right off the bat if they don't want to and still be able to keep Marc.

the 76ers may want to move iggy, and they have a glut at the 2/3
Philly would get 15 better offers for Iggy than Okafor. Plus value-wise, Hawes is a way better option for them

What is Okafor and Pondexter for Iguodala then?
Add in Willie Green and they might be tempted

At the very least, the Hornets should force them to give a third guy on their roster, max money.
Their market is as small as NOLA and for the foreseable future they're going to be right on the cap number with just 4 guy's(Conley, Gay, Randolph, Gasol) deals.
Their roster better be championship worthy as is. Because with those deals, they'll have no wiggle room going forward

well now that the sixers want to do things in free agency, it seems like they fricked themselves

they don't really need much more, not with their starting 1, 3, 4, and 5 locked up long term

Ariza/QPon
West/Landry
Okafor/Gray
Or
Jack/Blake
W. Chandler or Afflalo (FA acquisition)/Belli
Ariza/QPon
West/Odom
Bynum/Gray
?

Okafor may not be worth his escalating contract, but he's as good at center as the Hornets can realistically expect. Same with West. Pick up a scoring wing to compliment Ariza and CP3 and hope for a good draw in the playoffs.

hard to do this without cap space and with a possibly shrinking cap
and we had a scoring wing in thornton. monty doesn't care for that type
so basically we need a new coach, too

Favorable contracts and better than other things we would get if we can't force CP3 to stay with the new CBA or can't make him want to stay with improvements.
Posted on 5/9/11 at 11:08 am to TigerinATL
if we get him paul should be alot happier and he could really make us contenders

From what I've been gathering lurking on Sixers fan forums, Iggy might be the one pushing to be traded. He

Personally I want a bigger and or more athletic guy than Thornton at the 2. So looking more for another G-F type that can hit the 3.
I think Thornton is overrated around these parts because he isn't as athletic as others in the league and he is undersized. I do like him as a player, but an example of why this matters is because we have to put Ariza on the best SG/SF player and our 2s couldn't match up with a normal SF at all.

When I say scoring wing I don't mean 20+ ppg. The Hornets just need a reliable 15ppg that won't disappear when the going gets tough. The problem the whole year was far too many games where only one or even none of 6 wing players showed up. If Playoff CP3 and Playoff Ariza show up and Okafor gets a match up he won't cower away from, then the Hornets don't need that much more to put them over the top.

There's literally NOTHING thats ever pleased you regarding the Hornets.
You're in perpetual apocalypse mode

Thornton is incredibly athletic, and I don't think his height is that big of a deal because he is so big physically.

i just want a guy who can take guys off the dribble and shoot. we have ariza to be big, athletic, and defensive

he's a pure scorer. it's as simple as that

we can't keep letting our 1-sided players like ariza and okafor frick the rest of our team
you win by scoring points

we had 1 defensive minded coach that used an inferior gameplan for our personnel, and now we have another
there aren't many options to change the personnel to fit the style of coach, so we're left with changing the coach
