    Lakers-Rockets-Magic

    To Lakers:
    Kyle Lowry
    Glen Davis
    Quentin Richardson
    16th Pick

    To Rockets:
    Pau Gasol
    JJ Reddick
    Earl Clark

    To Magic:
    Luis Scola
    Kevin Martin

    Lakers move Pau and get a decent replacement in Davis who gets his wish to go to Disneyland, an upgrade at point in Lowry making any deal for Sessions unnecessary and Q-Rich's contract which is just there so Orlando gets happy to dump him the 16th pick would be used to draft a S.F (hopefully a guy like Terrence or Perry Jones if they fall)

    Rockets wanted out with Martin anyway and getting an efficient Reddick is a good way forward, with a rotation of Lee and Reddick at S.G they should be doing pretty good, also it looks like Patterson will get the nod over Scola regardless so this is a deal to free up playing time for him, they also get a good young forward in Clark who if given the chance, can really do well in Houston. Not to forget that you get a 20/10 Gasol (Well on the rockets he is) who gives them a proper #1 option on offense. I'll be honest also, there is only so much the Rockets can do with that 16th pick, and nothing really that makes them a world better either since any need would be addressed through F.A or by drafting someone at 14. (the only real need would be a backup C if Camby doesn't come back which can be addressed by drafting Zeller or Leonard and at backup P.G once Dragic resigns (he has to resign to make this deal work btw) which would serve best by getting a vet backup

    The Magic make a desperate bid to make Dwight stay by giving him a better supporting cast with Scola and Martin whilst dumping Q-Rich. Dwight forms a beast frontcourt with Scola who could really benefit from it also. and Martin would become the primary wing scoring option and is a guy who can go off for 20 points on any given night easily.

    I actually like it.

    Potential for a trade like this to happen: 0.

    NAH Kenyon MARTIN and LOUIS Scola is not enough to keep HOWARD in Orlando

    and PAU GASOL for the Lowry and the 16th pick what will the Lakers to do
    with Glen Davis by the way, I think the Lakers will again try to contend for
    the championship, Kobe is still very dangerous very capable of carrying a
    team-THE Lakers will rebuild ON the 2013-2014 season but this incoming season
    I don't think so, Laker will wooo D.HOWARD to join them if not, well they will
    look for another PG but will not sacrifice GASOL for a mediocre PG.

    Kevin Martin.

    Might not be enough to make him stay but it will atleast give him another scoring threat who can actually create. I know how much he wants that.

    Not a bad trade. I wouldn't be upset if this were to happen. I've been a fan of Lowry for a while and if Lakers can get some young blood in PJ3 then that'd be great. It would be weird seeing Big Baby start next to Bynum tho.

    It'll suck seeing Pau leave tho. The franchise owes him a lot I think for what he's done the past 4 seasons. Brought the Lakers from a low seeded playoff team to being legit contenders. He was a perfect fit for the triangle offense. Mike Brown can die.

    Magic give up barley nothing for KMart and Scola. Makes them much better. Don't like it.


    OK.

    This will likely to happen since Houston was the only team wants to acquire pau and gragic will likely to extend his contract and wants to be the starter of the rockets. Magic will improve in the addition of Scola and became younger if they can acquire quincy miller as well as the lakers if they get Perry Jones in the draft and acquire big baby and lowry. Lowry was one of the best pg in the league before he became injured so he can help a lot kobe both on offense and defense. Q-Rich can add fire power at the bench.
