Brooklyn values Hill as being worth a “2nd round pick and a trade exception,” according to Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders (Twitter link).

Yes. They are. But you can tell, they're all new booty fans who don't realize Pau does nothing like he used to. Hes a name now, and thats it. Thank him for his services and "SHIP HIS ASS OUTTA HERE".

As long as it's not Embiid or Parker, I think I'd be alright with it. From all the guys I've watched, I'm not sold on anyone else in this draft becoming a superstar.

If they trade for Love this offseason, I would assume they'd be making a strong push for Melo beforehand. If they came into next season with a starting lineup of Marshall, Kobe, Melo, Love and Asik, with a bench of Farmar, Henry, Wes Johnson and a decent big, I'd be pretty excited. I don't know if they'd go that far over the cap to make it happen though. :lupe:

Personally, I can't feel bad for them paying an enormous luxury tax bill after that $2 billion Time Warner deal they just signed and I half expect them to. :manny:

Lakers
Pau Gasol: There continues to be a belief that the LA Lakers are going to pull the trigger on a Gasol trade and that the long dormant deal with the Phoenix Suns that would send one of the lower of the four draft picks the Suns hold and injured big man Emeka Okafor to LA will be the deal that gets done. The Lakers continue to ponder if that’s the best move for them or if hanging on to Gasol into the summer for a possible sign-and-trade deal might return more long-term value than a late first round pick that consumes cap space. The Lakers continue to work other angles which include a possible deal with the Brooklyn Nets that would offload big man Jordan Hill to the Nets in exchange for a draft pick and a Disabled Player Exception. It seems that one is directly connected to the other, meaning if the Lakers move Gasol, moving Hill to get under the luxury tax line seems likely. The problem for the Lakers is that Phoenix is talking to other teams about their package with Okafor so if the Lakers wait to the wire they may find their deal for Gasol gone as Phoenix seems intent on using their chips before the clock strikes 3:00pm.

Ramona Shelburne just said Lakers Forum that she doesn't think the Lakers are planning to keep whoever they draft this year. :damn:
