The Spurs just need to get the system working again. We have never been the most talented team man for man. But we've had players who mesh the most effectively. Teams have to have both talent and chemistry to win. I think the spurs have always relied more heavily on the later.
Look how the Lakers this year have given the Suns fits. It certainly hasn't been because of talent, if you compare their starting lineups. , on a man-to-man basis, Phoenix was probably more talented than we were last year.
The Lakers now have the talent to win the le. Question is, how much chemistry will their team have, and will it be enough? We'll have to see.
Numbers don't tell the whole story. Horry is the perfect example of that.
You should know that. (But apparently you don't.)
Be honest, who would you rather have on your team Gasol or Hedo ?
(Spare me the answer though...cuz I have a feeling it's going to be a lie.)
laker should trade odom for someone else
there is a logjam now once everyone gets healthy
Spurs should have done this trade, then the Spurs future would have been ing set for the next 4 years
The problem was we didn't have Kwame Brown nor Javaris Crittenton.

OMG RUN FOR THE HILLS LOOK AT THAT NUGGETS LINEUP
Can the faint of heart please STFU now?
Comparison was to Hedo. What conversation are you following?...and Duncan does ?
Pau wouldn't average 19 and 9 with the Lakers if Bynum stepped in front of a bus tomorrow. Of course you think Pau Gasol is a low post threat. Only to teams that don't play defense. The only thing he's likely to do is keep shots from Kobe and be an improvement on Kwame Brown.
Your point was that at least Hedo could shoot threes compared to Pau.
My point was, so what if Pau couldn't shoot threes...neither can Duncan.
Comprende re o ?
Man, just shut the up already.
Duncan doesn't shoot threes because he's one of the top low-post scorers of all time. What does that have to do with Pau Gasol or Hedo Turkoglu?
Your point was that at least Hedo could shoot threes compared to Pau.
My point was, so what if Pau couldn't shoot threes...neither can Duncan.

What's the matter, pussy? Angry because Spurs fans aren't shaking in their boots because you mortgaged your future to get a stat-padding hasbeen who's soft as tissue paper? If you didn't want a big Goddamn dose of reality, Spurstalk probably wasn't the place to come and crow about your parade plans.
Two late first round picks, two scrubs, and the rights to Pau's brother? That's mortgaging our future? We didn't give up any core players. Most non re ed objective people would say that's a steal. I never crowed about anything on here stupid. You're just an angry irrational . That's your problem not mine.
He's just mad the Spurs can't tank another season to get the #1 pick in the draft again. How dare any Spurs fan call foul when their franchise did something far more egregious to get Time Duncan. even Barkley called you guys out for that.
Unless those picks are lottery protected, suggesting they are late first round picks is a little y. Calling the 19th pick in this year's draft a scrub is premature at best. Any trade that gets rid of Kwame Brown could be regarded as a steal, as the Wizards will gladly tell you every time Caron Butler laces them up. It's certainly good damage control and will likely allow the Lakers to re-sign Kobe, so it goes on the list of best trades ever the moment Kobe's name is on that contract.
You are a bit slow up there aren't ya ?
Who's calling foul? Nobody did anything wrong in acquiring Pau. If I'm the Lakers I make that trade every time and twice on Sunday. I just don't think Pau Gasol is Kevin Garnett, as many of you are wishing.
If you guys don't want to hear opinions from Spurs fans about the Pau Gasol trade, maybe you should start a new thread in the NBA forum.
No, you just haven't made any sense yet. We were comparing a soft guy who plays for Orlando to a soft guy who got traded to the Lakers, and you decided to mention Duncan's lack of three point prowess and have yet to explain how that's relevant to the conversation. Congratulations on at least making sure your post was basketball related.
Last time I respond to any of your posts. I'm not playing any of your little games here because we all know you're a en low life no life Spurs troll homer. Only anyone with as low a level of intelligence as you would even waste their time continuing responding to the crap you post. Talk all the you want. I could care less. Enjoy yourself, knock yourself out. Do whatever gives you a hard on. You're still a lifeless loser.
Yup, you are indeed slow up there.
Obstructed_View, can I do it for you?
Promises, promises.
The discussion is in a Spurs forum on a website called "Spurstalk", and I'm the troll with no life.
WTF, when did the Laker trolls dust off their key boards from 04???
Obstructed_View, can I do it for you?
Hey, if they come to me, it's not really trolling. If nothing else, I've got plausible deniability for it. They want validation from Spurs fans because they got Pau Gasol. It's a good trade, but it ain't that good.
When they thought people forgot that they gave up Caron Butler to get Kwame Brown in the first place.
