If I'm reading Danny's mind correctly:
If he feels that Dwight and Deron are going to reach free agency, he wants Gasol in place to attract them and form a new Big 3. Kind of like how Dallas wants to go with Dirk-Dwight-Deron. (Let's pray that no one takes Marion's contract. That's the precursor to them getting those three together. Once that happens, as long as Dwight and Deron both reach free agency, I feel that it becomes a lock they go to Dallas if they get rid of Marion and then amnesty Haywood.)
then, if he can't get that dream scenario, he can easily spin around and trade Gasol to Houston for some pieces, say Martin, Budinger, Patterson, Dragic, a draft pick. Oh and another thing, don't mention Lowry because the Rockets have said 1000 times they aren't trading him. He wasn't even in the FIRST Gasol trade. Then he'd start the rebuilding process.
All this while fielding a more competitive team this year.
Make sense?
