Really hope he comes off the bench next season and only plays around 27mpg and around 72 games (with 10 games off due to rest) next season to help keep him fresh.

Still, Pau's career accomplishments with the Grizzlies are greater than his with the Bulls. Do the Bulls still carry that international cachet?
I'm watching Spain vs Croatia right now..... I'm loving the way moves, his vision, an shot selection. We may miss Tim's leadership, but I'm thinking we'll be alright with everything else. I like this signing..
NBA Sunday: The Pau Gasol Gamblecontinue reading: http://www.basketballinsiders.com/nb...-gasol-gamble/Quote:
In the most Tim Duncan way possible, the greatest power forward of all-time left the game the same exact way he survived within in. Unassuming, unpretentious, meekly and quietly, Tim Duncan’s announcement was delivered via email (just like I had predicted). There would be no season-long retirement tour, no gifts from past competitors and no public softening of the competitive spirit and fire that had many believing that the Spurs would somehow find a way to win the 2016 NBA Finals.
With Duncan stepping out of the picture, all eyes in San Antonio immediately turn to the man who has been employed as his replacement—Pau Gasol.
With Gregg Popovich, LaMarcus Aldridge and Kawhi Leonard pushing forward as the franchise’s key figures, what will become of the mighty legacy of the Spurs?
Gasol can still play!!
Best frontline in the NBA!
Hell yeah and without all the hype! If TP, Green, Manu, and Patty can hold the backcourt we will be hard to reckon with!Quote:

The terrible truth about our predicament in Iraq is that even if we had invaded with no other purpose than to remove Saddam Hussein from power and make Iraq a paradise on earth, we could still expect tomorrow’s paper to reveal that another jihadi has blown himself up for the sake of killing scores of innocent men, women, and children.

damn mid, you face planted hard as shit. try reading the original source instead of just what's reported. thought you were smarter than that tbh. my bad, you continue to lower my expectations of you.
quoting grenn greenwald :lmao
mid not reading the next sentence of a quote :lmao
today's mid :lol
mid before today :lol
Pau was great against the Boomers. He'll be a fine Spur.
Pity the useless refs decided to hand the game to Spain though. Atrocious officiating in the bronze medal game.
:lol True. Dude's Grizzlies' all time leading scorer but the franchise isn't worth mentioning.Quote:

Marc is generally overrated, Pau underrated. (He should really have had one finals MVP for example)
So Harris is just handwaving away the consequences?Quote:
