Ugh this hurts. I wish it was possible more than one OG Raptor aside from Lowry could experience this.

Sucks for JV. Love that guy.

But unfortunate reality is that we don't make it past Embiid/Philly without Gasol.

Well we wouldn’t be champions if he was still on roster

Gasol came up huge in playoffs

But he will get his ring

If there was away to keep JV in that Gasol trade .
Wish he was at that winning game and in the bus.

Miss the big fella but Gasol was key with his defense and passing.

Glad he's getting a ring.

Who doesn't love JV?

Only thing I don't love about the guy is his perimeter defense.

Get that man a ring

So you're saying DeMar and Jake Puddle deserve rings too?

Top centre in raps history, imo.... and one of the classiest raps player in history.

Deserves the biggest standing ovation of all former players, imo...

That's a very legit response from JV. Everybody probably can see this is bitter sweet to him. He's going to get his ring and he's in a good position now with his current contract and team.

All jokes aside you have to feel for guys like JV and Demar. These guys were here for the begining of the dream and then they see all the guys that just came celebrating a championship in their first try. I mean meeks walked out of YMCA and won a ring.

I feel like JV and Demar shouldn't get rings but they deserve something. They're like that old girlfriend you really cared about but deep down you knew it probably wasn't a forever thing so you bought her a necklace instead. Maybe we should give them necklaces.

Always liked him and his game, but we don't win the title with him. Gasol was a beast defensively. Definitely give him a ring, he was here during the year and that seems to be tradition.

JV would be proud of Gasol's parade performance as well.
