    So Gasol carried Kobe just like Shaq did?

    He screams like a girl. Turn your speakers on, everytime he drives to the basket, he's loud as Sharapova.

    May be classy, talented, well-rounded, intelligent, whatever other compliments you want to give.

    But on the court he's also a whining, screaming, flopping, prima donna douche who falls much more than a seven foot, 250 lb man should.

    Man, the Bucks need Dwight more than any team in the league.

    People forget how good Gasol was before he went to the Lakers because of the injury. He brought Kobe the ring and not the other way around. That is the reason why Morey all out to get him. His numbers in international play showed that he still had it.

    Stacey king: people say that the Lebron free agent signing was the best one this summer, but I'd say that Pau Gasol is the better signing!!

    Playing with legitimate threats also helps. In LA the past two seasons defenses could double him without really worrying about the other four guys.

    Chicago moves the ball waayyy too well to really be able to successfully double Pau.

    IF they go into the post-season healthy the only thing in there way would be Lebron having an all-time great series against them which we've seen in the past is totally possible.

    At this point in the season I don't think there is a team in the league that can match up against them for 7 straight games because they force you to defend well at all 5 positions and rotate extremely well for 48 minutes. They're like the Spurs of the last few years but younger and more athletic with less experience.

    He shouts every time he shoots. It's really quite funny.

    But damn, I really wish the Rockets could have gotten him last offseason. But I'm so glad OKC or SAS didn't get him. If they got him, forget about the title especially in the case for OKC.

    Westbrook
    Waiters (?) Whoever really.
    Durant
    Ibaka
    Gasol

    Yikes!

    He's posting career averages this year, no different than any other except higher rebound numbers.

    The most overrated team in the league. Chicago isn't an offensive juggernaut . All the playoff teams(OKC not Phoenix for the last spot) in the west are capable of beating Chicago and most would be favored.

    Yes he did. In the 3 seasons without Gasol or Shaq, Kobe has won less than half of his games.
