In other news involving NBA big men, a source said Wednesday that Minnesota continues to pursue a possible trade for Lakers forward Pau Gasol, dangling rookie Derrick Williams, who is from the Los Angeles area, and draft choices. The only players considered untouchable by the Timberwolves, who are seeking to add a veteran by the trade deadline, are Kevin Love and Ricky Rubio. The Timberwolves believe it could be enticing for Gasol to play on the same team as fellow Spaniard Rubio.

That's weird...especially with Pekovic playing so well. They need a SF and SG more than anything. Williams would be the 3 of the future there, you'd think.

Very interesting, I'd love for the Lakers to pull the trigger on this deal though haha

Agreed, strange, with Pekovic putting up double double regularly allowing Love to roam. Major need is the 2 guard, an athletic 2 guard. As long as it's Gasol-Williams....no Howard ramifications, go for it.
