So he's going to the Lakers...BFD.
Same player, new team. He was never a big deal before and he still isn't a big deal. You bandwagoners need to STFU about Gasol this and Gasol that.
Why bother? The Spurs will sweep the Lakers in the WCF.
Exactly. No big deal. So why start yet ANOTHER Gasol thread ?
Couldn't you just post this in the other Gasol threads already proclaiming the same garbage.
You're lucky I'm not the moderator here. I would've lock this up before you even pressed the "submit reply" button.
On Memphis, franchise player, #1 option.
On Lakers, third or fourth best player, third or fourth option.
Your board would be then.
wow, now you're starting to make some sense here.

Yes, it would be the ...good that is. It would be void of 20 threads saying the same . That's good is it not ?
He was always a big name thrown out there but because he's a lakers, fans want to act like s and try to belittle him. Ya'll are just jealous and rightfully so, it was a steal and definitely makes the lakers a better team. So just be prepared to deal with us in the playoffs and show us he and the Lakers aren't .
Serious. Where did he ever take the Grizzlies? Now he goes to the Lakers and all of a sudden they are going to win the Western Conference? Like I said in another thread, Shaq, Kobe, Malone, and Payton could not get it done. Now all of a sudden because of Gasol, the Lakers are unbeatable? Horse .
Lol, the fact that you see the lakers in the WCF is a reason enough to make it a big deal, because previously they were considered a first round exit.
Shaq, Kobe, Malone, and Payton beat the out of your Spurs and went to the NBA Finals. How is that doing nothing?
where were you in 2004?
NEWSFLASH SPURS FANS
Kobe+Malone+Shaq+Payton kicked the crap out of your team in 2004. Yes they lost to DET in the Finals, but at least they made it to the NBA Finals. So if you are going to call going to the Finals a disgrace then so be it, but at least they delivered on their promise of contending for a championship.
ho-hum.
Why I don't like him is because he plays like a little girl. If there is small contact he immediately falls down to the court.
It's pretty lame when you have to use an alter-ego in order to create intrest in your own thread.
Gasol is quite good.
So do other good players like Iverson, Wade, and Manu. Do you not like Manu?
I'm slightly nervous about this trade. Not sure, though because I've seen him get destroyed both by fast paced teams and those with a strong low-post presence.
It will be interesting to see how this works out.
I've always thought Gasol to be pretty underrated.
I would have loved to see him come to the Spurs, i think it makes the lakers stronger for sure...does it give them what it takes to go the distance? I think that is yet to be seen.
Gasol as a 3rd or 4th option is perfect for him, because he doesnt have to worry about having the offense run through him or being "the man". The guy is good despite being "soft". As a Spurs fan I would take him in a heartbeat over any of our other bigs minus Duncan of course. The lakers have two legit scoring big men with an energy guy like Turiaf coming off the bench. That is a strong deep team. We'll see how he fits in, but on paper, I would not want to see them in the playoffs.
The lakers traded nothing to get him, and even if it doesnt work out he's about 100x better than Kwame Brown could ever be.
Thank you Doug, glad to see Pau getting some respect on here. Look no Laker fan is saying the Lakers are going to beat everyone in the NBA now that they have Pau, at least none of the smart ones. We all know the road to the Finals goes through SAS. All I am saying is we have a very good chance now and in the future so long as Pau meshes well with this team, which appears to be a foregone conclusion.
Thanks Doug.....
Fisher, Bryant, Odom, Gasol, Bynum.
Thats a good 5. period.
Gasol is a good player and no doubt this makes the Lakers better. A lot of people are saying he is soft and this & that but the bottom line is that if the Spurs were some how able to get him we would all be going crazy right now.
