if landing him and then packaging him with Bonner and a couple of 1st round picks would land us Kevin Garnett or Amare I'm all for it.
Looking at the recent Memphis got ripped articles, I remembered Marc Gasol might be great on the Spurs.
Everybody overlooks how good Marc Gasol is, right now.
- 7' 1" NBA ready size...stocky dude but relatively quick
- Shooter's touch (he can shoot 3's, fadeaways, hooks, dunks, etc)
- Refined post-game
- He is better than Oberto, Splitter and Scola in my opinion, much more upside
- He is only 24 but
- He WANTS to play in the NBA, his family lives in Memphis
Marc Gasol would certainly be a top 10 pick in this year's draft. Because he was a 2nd round pick last year, the Grizzlies aren't restricted to the 1st rounder pay scale (ala Tiago Splitter). They can pay him anything they want.
In fact, the rights to Marc Gasol might be a great pickup for the Spurs in exchange for their 1st round pick+cash this year. Or maybe more, I'm not sure how the Spurs would get him.

Does anyone really think Grizz owner, Mike Heisley, would conduct any trades with the Spurs after Pop publicly ripped him in front of the NY media? If the guy holds a grudge against Cuban because he's simply not fond of him, I'm sure Pop's not on his Xmas list now either.
With their newfound faculties for examining trades Memphis will hereby demand Tim Duncan to let go of Marc Gasol.
Marc Gasol sucks.
Curtis Borchardt > Marc Gasol.
come on man the dude might be on to something. Marc Gasol and two stiffs can get us someone like Dwight Howard.
At least he looks less of a than his brother.
Oberto >>>>>>> Mark Gasol![]()
Marc Gasol is very very very good make no mistake about that. He can be as good as his brother and better as a pure Center.
and the only reason why I can say that is because I'm Spanish and seen him play many times.
You're Spainish! Tell me its Easter and I will color the eggs!
You know nothing about basketball
At 7'-1", Spurs can train him to be a dominant player.
All it takes is good coaching.
I was kidding.

I have not seen him play at all, can't make a good judgment on him.
If he is anything like his brother he could be a solid addition to the Spurs
Did Marc Gasol help contribute in 2006, for that Gold Medal alongside his brother?
I'm not Spanish?
No se por que te piensas que no soy español bobo. Soy mas español que ninguno aqui. Madrileño de pura casta!!!
Y si he visto a Marc Gasol jugar muchas, muchas veces.
Te recuerdo que en las finales de los campeonatos mundiales pasados, Pau Gasol se lesiono y no pudo jugar la final. Marc salio de ular y lo bordo!!
It's funny how Crittenton and Marc Gasol are scrubs when Spur fan discusses the MEM deal, but are good prospects when Spur fan is discussing possible FA signings.
Like I wrote in Spanish above... if you guys remember Gasol got injured for the finals (although he was he tournament MVP). Marc was a starter for Spain and he did an amazing job.
Having said that it has been this season the one in which he exploted as a top tier player.
Crittenton played like a scrub after the trade and Marc Gasol is a scrub until proven otherwise. Still, he's the only potential positive Memphis has from this trade, so unless they use him to improve their draft slot, he isn't going anywhere.
Marc Gasol > Splitter > Curtis Borchardt.
WOW. Marc Gasol is TERRIBLE. This thread is re ed
Spurs can use this guy to hack-a-gasol next year.
Seems to have a solid post game and looks like he could pass as good as his brother. Sign him up!
What better way to go after Cain (Pao), than to send in his brother Abel (Marc).
