Eric Pincus:
Lakers very likely need to renounce Gasol to make the Lin
trade happen - timing is vital for Rockets - LA can do S&T
of Pau first before Lin
Because Pau takes up around $20 mil in cap space - Lakers
can't just trade for Lin with room - w/o Pau's number
Issue is - if Lakers are to S&T Pau Gasol out to another
team - need to do so before they renounce his rights - so
likely before a Lin deal
湖人需要放弃Pau的鸟权，那占了20M左右的薪资空间，没放弃的话
不可能交易Lin。
湖人也可以 S&T Pau，不过这必须发生在Lin的交易前。
当然也可以放弃Pau的鸟权后再用剩余的空间签他。
so - completely going by the math - not a rumor - if Lakers
sent Nash to Philly with Rox pick - that would clear Nash
and up to $23.7 mil
湖人还是可以把Nash和火箭的首轮交易到76人，清出23.7M的顶薪空间
Mark Medina:
Lakers also sense Chicago & NY are teams left standing for
Melo. But Melo/reps haven't told Lakers they're out. So they'll
keep waiting
湖人察觉Melo似乎只在公牛/尼克间选择，但一直没收到Melo阵营的
消息，因此还在等。
