Pau is not a power forward? What about the times when he played with Bynum? Bynum was the power forward?

.Can Pau play power forward? Yeah. Is it optimal for him at this stage in his career? Nope. The Bynum-Pau combo last season was productive, but hardly a fit. That was just raw talent outplaying opposing frontcourts more than anything.
The Lakers were always at their best when Pau was at center with Odom at power forward.

Dudes lets just stop, Pau is not getting traded for Love. Timberwolves could get a bunch of assets for K Love, wolves are going to try to do what the Nuggets did when they traded Melo, you know, actually get a bunch of good players. Wolves are no where near to being desperate. That BK/LA/MN would be the only one that could make sense right now.

So now Kahn knows what he's doing?
If he wants to continue to work in the NBA and keep his job I'd assume he would do the right thing and actually get value for Kevin Love. But hey, if you want to believe Pau can be traded for Love, go right ahead son.

Dude the wolves have had multiple high 1st rounders over the last few years...
What do they have to show for it?
Love and Rubio and Niko ( a 2nd rounder )

Funny thing is Love and Pekovic were McHale's picks, not Kahn's.

You gotta remember when the Wolves took 3 PGs (Rubio, Flynn, Lawson) in one draft. :x Then they trade Lawson for a future 1st and decide to keep Flynn from the group while waiting for Rubio to come over. Flynn is somewhere. Rubio needs to improve his shot but dude is a playmaker. Lawson is blossoming over in Denver.

Coulda sworn that combo lost to the Celtics in the Finals while the Gasol/Bynum combo produced 2 rings

I thought we were talking about the productivity of the Lakers bigs but I guess throwing Kobe in your arguement makes sense.....actually no.

You always like to bring that up to your Laker constituents and I'll reiterate, Never said Bynum and Dwight was an unfair trade, I said and I'll continue to say, Dwight didn't want to go LA, he never chose to go to the Lakers, and their were 3 other teams he rather have played for. So at the end of the day (in a superstar driven league), what logically made more sense?
It's not my fault the Magic took the weaker deal and never granted Dwight his wishes, but most importantly - it's not my fault that the Lakers gambled the future of their franchise on Dwight's emotions and indecisiveness to sign with a team he never wanted to play for.
So you want to let that go Noble? Or do you want to brush along the lines of illogicalness with most if your brethren and think that the Lakers are going to get Kevin Love for Pau Gasol?

Stop the slurpage please. I've been watching the game since I was 5 or so. Do you know the game well? If so then you can respect my opinion as I'm doing to him.
