I just don't see it working dude...but hey, I guess we'll find out
We'll agree to disagree.
You and the other 2 Lakerfans think the Lakers are better off with just Pau Gasol.
I think the Lakers would be better off with Marc Gasol and Richard Jefferson rather than just Pau Gasol. I believe 2 > 1.
We'll leave it at that cuz you're a cool dude usually.

Thabeet is eventually gonna be one of those guys who you think twice about driving on. He's not a #2 pick, but this year's draft was pretty weak anyways.
Did you enjoy staring at my name while you did it? That's why I put it there. I'm trolling peoples minds while they fap.i just did violent things to your sig ginob.
I think it's too convenient to say that one thing would have led to another (getting jefferson), but we'll never know. Agree to disagree
Haha

I see that you beat me too it lol!
lmao Allanon.
Why do you hate Pau so viciously?
I don't think he hates Pau. I think he believes that Pau wasn't necessarily the only 'answer' to the championship puzzle for the Lakers.
Why they are good? Their bench does not look great on paper but that's not a problem for the Lakers. They have a great starting five, a great coach, they play defense and do not rely only on scoring and they play teamball.
There are a couple of teams who look better on paper but the Lakers are the team to beat. Should be an entertaining season watching the contenders play the Lakers... definitely looking forward to it
Lakers' biggest weaknesses:
1. Guarding point guards.
2. The bench.
Fisher can't control the fastest guards, and Aaron Brooks did extremely well against them in the playoffs last year. They'll continue to have trouble in this department.
Their bench may be the worst of any contender. It's really poor. Starters may have to play longer minutes in the regular season, providing wear and tear and leading to exhaustion and potential injuries. Fortunately their starters, except for Fisher, are all in their primes.
Brooks will be a non issue. Yao, Mutombo, McGrady have all fallen and can't get up. And even if McGrady gets ups they swear up & down in Texas they're better off without him.
i agree...fortunately, all the other teams have a longer list of weaknesses.
in a 18 point loss..
Last 2009 game:
Pau Gasol:
14 pts 15 rebs 4 blks 3 asts only 1 TO 6/9 FG while holding DHoward to 11 and 10. Pau also had 4 offensive rebounds this game.
Oh ye....after they game he raised that LOB trophy ing !
22-pt loss actually
Didn't Pau still lose with those numbers when he was with the Grizzlies?22-pt loss actually
You can't really say that the Grizzlies still lost.
Nah, I don't hate Pau at all, I'm trying to dispell this myth that Pau is the real MVP of the Lakers. I'm tired of all these stupid Lakerfans making Pau to be the real MVP of the Lakers.
The Lakers wouldn't be championship material without Pau? Pau was the saviour of the Lakers? What kind of ignorance is this?
The Lakers never needed Pau to begin with, they had Marc Gasol coming and would still be championship contenders today. These guys are trying to say Kobe/Bynum/Marc Gasol/Artest + another good player wouldn't be champions. WTF is up with dumb Lakerfan these days? They forget the Lakers already had Marc Gasol coming and would have been just fine.
Lots of Laker haters and ignorant Laker fans like MilkShakeBalla say the Lakers would not be contenders without Pau. These "Pau is God" fans should turn in their Lakerfan tags and get a Pau poster to stroke off to.
Kobe haters saying "Kobe couldn't do it without Pau" and Kobe's own Laker fanbase is just licking that up. Just plain Lakerfan idiocy. I even saw a thread at Lakersground that said "Pau is the MVP of the Lakers" Those idiots.
Extreme disrespect to the other guys on the team like Kobe, Lamar, Bynum, Artest....these aren't scrubs that need Pau to save them.

I heard LeBron triple-doubled yesterday .....
What point are you trying to make bringing up "in a 18 point loss"?
Look at this Lakerfan idiot, his avatar shows a picture of Kobe holding Finals MVP and at the same time says Kobe couldn't have done it without Pau.Last 2009 game:
Pau Gasol:
14 pts 15 rebs 4 blks 3 asts only 1 TO 6/9 FG while holding DHoward to 11 and 10. Pau also had 4 offensive rebounds this game.

Get rid of that picture Pau lover.
Anyone that seriously argued that Pau was the Lakers MVP is a complete re .
Marc Gasol is nowhere near Pau's level though.
I'm sure you've seen those at LG.
Although Marc is not as good yet, he also would have saved the Lakers $13 million which could have gone to another player. Plus he's 5 years younger than Pau.Marc Gasol is nowhere near Pau's level though.
And 21 points and 15 boards is very compe ive with Pau.
Pau is a finesse player, Marc is a power player.
To say that the Lakers couldn't have won it all without Kobe/Lamar/Marc/Ariza/Fisher is disrespectful to the Lakers. To think Pau is this great Lakers saviour is blasphemy. To continue this myth that Kobe couldn't have done it without Pau is just plain stupid, especially coming from Laker fans.

See your points buddy and you make a good case but I also see Milkshakes points. I am getting in on the tail end of this topic so please bear with me.
Marc Gasol almost certainly could have been a great piece just as his brother but shouldn't something be said about "intangibles" that some people have and others don't? Marc could have been a great pick-up but would he have been a Phil "guy"?. Pau is the ultimate teammate and does what is asked of him which fits perfectly with Phils system. Not saying that Marc doesn't have that but maybe there is more to acquiring a player besides just his stats. How many times have we seen guys blossom on some teams while not producing crud on another?
I still see your points though. Just that I am in the camp that thinks the Laker FO saw things in Pau which fit perfectly well with Phils system "now". They need to win "now" and not wait for Marc to morph into what they need.
Just my opnions.
