With rumors surfacing that the Lakers had discussions with the Wolves at the beginning of the season about Beasley and again being very interested with the trade deadline coming up, is this not the perfect situation for the Rockets to trade for Pau? Chris Broussard is reporting that LA could absord Beasley with the 8.9 mill trade exception by giving up a pick or cash, but I would think the Wolves could get something more useful in return. Its no secret that Adelman loves K. Mart and I feel confident enough to say that Kevin would love to play with his old coach and that young and exciting team! A three team trade with Houston, Minn., and LA, would be a win, win, win for everybody!

Houston receives: Pau Gasol, Anthony Tolliver

LA receives: Luis Scola, Michael Beasley, Jonny Flynn (or Goran Dragic which I think LA would push for)

Minn. receives: Kevin Martin

I was a supporter of the vetoed trade and this trade is pretty similar. And who knows....Houston could possibly get a pick from either LA or Minn. So, who says no?

Houston gets a player they covet

LA gets a replacement at pf, depth at sf, and a need a pg

Minn gets a need at sg and frees up the jam at sf

What do yall think? Does this need to happen?
