Gasol Hopes To Remain With Lakers 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Apr 29, 2013 2:32 pm

Pau Gasol has one season remaining on his contract with the Los Angeles Lakers and hopes to return even though he could be dealt in the offseason.


"I would like to be a part of another championship team here, but it is not totally up to me," Gasol said.


"We could definitely get it done [if the roster stayed intact], but I would be pretty surprised if there was no changes whatsoever. I would be surprised if that happens."


Gasol said he had "certain desires that [Phil Jackson] would be chosen" to replace Mike Brown instead of Mike D'Antoni.


Gasol and Jackson remain in frequent contact.

Well that comment about preferring Jackson over Mike D'Antoni isn't going to help him stick around :-?

"We could definitely get it done [if the roster stayed intact]"

I hope everyone in LA thinks this way. Then we could laugh at them for another whole year.
