    I know hindsight is 20/20, but is wish we never traded his rights to the Grizzlies. This dude has a wet jumper. He bangs. He rebounds. He swats. He's a crafty passer. His hoops IQ is on par with his soft brother.

    He just won DPOY and has improved each year he has played. He still hasn't reached his ceiling. He played a major role in 8 and if they beat the Clipps this year (I expect it tbh), he'll be the catalyst.

    What's not to like about him? I'd trade Howard for this dude right now and not think twice tbh.

    Doubtful. He would have been an almost perfect triangle center. He would have complimented Kobe and LO really well IMO.

    this might hurt, because it's truthful, but you might want to blame your idol Kobe. his Snitchass is the reason they had to make an emergency move. props to Stern though for making sure the bread is buttered.

    He's probably 4th, behind Duncan, Nowitzki and Howard..

    His scoring isn't consistently good, not a great rebounder..Memphis's system suits him well, tbh, as his lack of consistent scoring ability is masked by their grind-out system..

    I know Lkrfan is trolling, but Marc Gasol wasn't a notable player until 2010 or 2011, and his offense still isn't anywhere near his brother's..Lakers don't make the Finals in any year of Pau over Marc, tbh..

    I am not sure if Fat Gasol is the best big man on his own team tbh.
    TD is better than him everywhere, there is no doubt.

    NEWSFLASH: Kobe is not my idol. I support him because he's a Laker. Name on the front >>>>>> name on the back. Believe that.

    I mean, Pau already won them, so they're guaranteed with Pau. 1 in hand is worth 2 in the bush, etc.

    great, now Lkrfan is going to try to build a time machine to help Rapist win more rings.

    but he never had enough talent around him
    the officiating and insane payroll wasn't enough

    I could buy Duncan (again - debatable) - but not _irk or Howard. His defense >>>> _irk's and his offensive repertoire >>>>> Howard's ever will be.

    He's the best big man in the game.

    We talking 2013 here. This isn't a lifetime achievement award. TD is NOT better than him everywhere right now. Prove it.

    TD is just better on O and D.

    Scoring=TD is better
    Rebounding= TD is better
    Blocks= TD is better
    Post moves= TD is better
    Jump shoots= TD is better
    Leadership= any question?

    Gasol's offensive repertoire is extremely overrated..he couldn't even break the 50% shooting mark on a low-volume usage, with Z-Bo next to him, on a below average overall offense..

    He's also a slightly above average rebounder, nothing impressive..

    A healthy Howard is a better defensive player and a much better rebounder..Gasol is a more skilled offensive player, but Howard has always been a more productive scorer, when healthy..

    Gasol shoots jumpers (lower % than dunks) and he bangs. This will lead to 49.4%. Now contrast that to H_warD who shot 57.8%. On the surface, it appears that H_warD is the better offensive player because his 17/12 on 57.8% looks better than Gasol's 14.1/7.8 on 49.4%. Sometimes stats lie.

    H_warD should be dominating the Spurs but he's not. Here's his chance to prove to the Lakers that he could carry us after Kobe retires. Stupid fouls. No post game. Getting sonned by a 37 year old. Maybe he's not as good as people think.

    Marc's jumper is eerily similar to big bro's. Form is different, but they're both pretty deadly from about free throw distance, yet they seem to love to stretch out to the top of they key where they mostly lay bricks. Marc was feelin it tonight from deep, though

    I think u are trolling but i am gonna bite.

    Scoring
    17,8 ppg(50% FG)[21,3 per 36] vs
    14,1 (49% FG)[14,5 per 36]

    Rebounding
    9,9 rpg(19% TRB) [11,9 per 36]
    7,8 rpg(13,1% TRB) [8,0 per 36]

    Blocks
    2,7 bpg(BLK%= 6,4) [3,2 per 36]
    1,7 bpg(BLK%= 4,1) [1,8 per 36]

    Duncan DRtg = 95
    M.Gasol DRtg = 98 (and he has better defenders on his team than Timmy)

    I'm insanely jealous of the Grizz for having Marc Gasol, he's definitely becoming the best big in the game, tbh...

    Marc Gasol has never cracked the 20% usage rate..I'm not sure if I've ever seen that for a top big in his prime, tbh..
