have any of you guys seen gasol lately? he always looks like he's crying running back up the floor after a possession. that injury he had last year may still be affecting him.
but more than that garnett>>>>>>gasol everyday!
its not even fair. i think he was a one time all star, and made the playoffs three years with an incredibly stacked team. as the number 1 option, he couldn't help his team win a single playoff game. 0-12!
those teams won about 50 a year as well. they weren't just scraping by to get into the playoffs.
meanwhile, your boy garnett, who i feel some have forgotten since he's been out for a while, took less talented teams and actually won in the playoffs. i think he got his team to the playoffs his second year, barely out of his teens and went each year for about 8 years straight.
i've watched gasol a lot over the years as a hornets fan, and my god he hurts the eyes. he doesn't pass when he's doubled nearly enough, he's a lazy help defender and i have no idea how he gets his points.
rudy gay is the better player on the grizzlies. what does that say about pau? not to mention his gm basically said memphis fans hated him, wouldn't cheer for him and wouldn't go see a game with pau in it. i think i've actually heard people boo him in memphis.
boo him! enough. its not even funny.
on the lakers though, i expect him to be a better player, like vince was when he was traded, but only because he has kobe beside him. he's no saviour - especially on the defensive end!
this trade i think will work out while bynum is hurt. but next season it may get ugly, since bynum looks to be the better player when healthy.

its a nice thought, but KG is something special and he proofes it with his bit for MVP...dont see gasol+jefferson+better bench providing the same
OT: Plz take a look at the link in my sig...there are only 2 slots open in the 08-fanatsy-draft (starting after the Allstargame) and it would be a pity if you would miss it!
