It only has the 1 protection that I'm aware of and they've got 2 burgeoning superstars plus a couple of nice young players and they're on the verge of becoming a playoff team.

I don't give a rats butt about the draft anymore because the Hawks are going to waste the pick anyway. We will still have our pick though.

It's lottery protected until 2018 and if they still don't make the playoffs it turns into a 2nd rounder.

 

The Celtics got 3 1st round picks this year they could trade if we don't give them horford

And a 1st round pick which is supposedly what they're looking for. Not sure why you're overlooking that.

And using the term All Star to describe Gasol at this point in his career is like calling Korver an All Star.

"Bud, this @hawksfanatic fella is saying the salaries won't match in our trade idea"

"Really?  Gosh darnit, I thought we had one.  Okay, see if those schmucks got any other ideas"

Don't draw me back into this hellhole of a thread. Ahhh shit.

But with Jimmy Butler rehabbing a hyperextended knee and the Bulls a mere game ahead of the ninth-place Charlotte Hornets in the Eastern Conference, it might be time to sell high on Gasol and look toward the future. According to The Vertical's Chris Mannix, that's exactly what some executives around the league think Chicago may be doing.

No word yet on where Gasol could go, but him entering the fray would be significant news in and of itself.

Wrong until 2020.

True but he's still 35 and very unlikely to re-sign there next year and he would be a rental for anyone who trades for him. Plus a few posters on here were nearly All Stars in the East this year. Not like we are talking about a guy on a long term deal who's still in his prime.

They're trying to set a record for most consecutive lottery picks with no improvement  (trying to outdo Billy Knight).

I like the concept of us acquiring a rental if it can get us into the finals.  It would be such an unusual giddy feeling. Yeah, das rite.

They could yes. So could the Hawks.

I like it better than us moving our stars for picks since we suck at using them anyway.

JJ Hickson is rumored being dangled for a 2nd rounder by Denver.    At 6-9, 245 he has always rebounded and played defense.

Hard to imagine the Sixers doing anything that might help them win a game.

Nuggets have several bigs that could help us. Hopefully the Hawks are talking to them.

I'm good with it.  He is actually a rebounder.  We won't use a 2nd rounder anyway.

Never been a fan of rentals, but dayuuum a Pau rental this year sure is enticing. And who says some of those Celts 1sts aren't enticing and Budcox couldn't convert into a score. "Past performance doesn't necessarily predict future return." Maybe Budcox just haven't liked what they've seen in Round 1 up until now, and are still capable of striking gold. And, if what we've been hearing is true, I know I can't be the only one impressed with Budcox's performance this trade season (hardball)...
