Right now that pick is looking very good but Gasol should solidify my front court.

Not that i had any doubts but rebuilding officially began in the pacific northwest ...

Good deal for the Bulls too, as Gasol/Amare/Griffin/Anderson gives them a great frontcourt. Now if they only had anything more than Drew/Hinkle and Fabrizio manning the backcourt ...

i am not so sure if this is really a good trade for the bulls.
as long as drew and fabricio can´t find their shooting touch gasol won´t be better than griff. Ok maybe something like 13/8 but not enough imo.
i expect the bulls to make a run for the POs but it is a big risk to give up two picks for gasol.

Gasol is a nice addition.  
I have always questioned his ability to play center, since he was so ineffective as a center when he played on my squad.
But Gasol and Amare is a nice frontcourt, offensively and defesnivley.  Gasol does play much, much better as an option, I think.

The Sonics get 2 1sts for Gasol.  I thought he might have more value the that, it just depends on the level of the picks.  Right now, that is a great trade since there is a very high lottery pick involved.  But Gasol will definitely improve the Bulls.

Tough one.  The winner of this trade will not be known until the offseason, imo.
