    Unless the relationship proved irreparable, I wouldn't have traded Aldridge straight up for Gasol. I know he's probably Lowe's favorite player, but they've long been comparable. The amount of bias (predictably giving him a free pass for the Fizdale firing, too) is beyond ridiculous.

    Lowe has been pretty garbage, once he got into the projecting and rumor business.
    He's better at straight analysis.

    Gotta' agree that Lowe is a hot take machine now. Not that is exactly uncommon in the business or anything, but his takes are notoriously off and change just about every single day. He's trash now for sure.

    He is massively overrating Gasol. ..

    Aldridge is a better scorer, rebounder, and might even say, have been a better defender since 2015 than Gasol. The latter is obviously a superior passer, shot-creator and has higher overall basketball IQ, but nothing that would somehow put him in a higher player tier which would require the worth of two first round picks to bridge the (non-existing) gap between two ..

    Like you said in the other thread, the Memphis brass are hilariously overvaluing this Gasol/Conley core, and they are going to hit mediocrity and irrelevance sooner or later..They should get ahead of it to salvage something from the impending mess..

    Fatsol is the most overrated player of the last decade. Has been considered the best Center for 5+ years yet no one ever gameplans for that soft finesse

    That 2013 undeserved DPOY that belonged to Timmy <<<<

    I thought everyone on here has a hard on for Marc Gasol and Conley. He gets one overrated coach and everyone hates him.

    And this was what would supposedly be a statement game after a coach-firing he had the biggest hand in..

    Marc is a fine player--not a franchise-type, but a second tier star who is at the -end of his prime..It is insulting that Lowe proposes that we should add the equivalent of two first round picks to swap him with Aldridge who just blew him out of water tonight..

    I might consider Marc, Conley and a 1st round pick for LA, tbh.

    They can keep Conley tbh. Why pay someone a historic salary not to play?

    I couldn't find any other player on that team that wasn't a scrub to make the joke, tbh.

    I think the one who had the statement game was Lamarcus Aldridge.

    Mike and Marc are two of my favorite players in the league but I wouldn't trade LMA for one of them.

    With all his summer-drama about touches, his 4th quarter-disappearance acts and other issues, I pick LMA over Marc all day because his game fits better into Spurs' system.

    This is a mid-range/iso team and that's LMA's game. It's weird that Love didn't even mention it.

    Only because our real MVP is watching games on the bench.

    But would it still be a midrange/iso team with Marc instead of LMA? That's Kawhi's game, and Rudy's to a lesser extent I guess.
