    He is on my fantasy team and his numbers are
    impressive

    I just have not seen him play
    How is his defense? Is he a typical Euro?

    comments anyone

    Pau, not Paul.
    I saw him playing in European Championsips. He didn't offer post-up game, but was a good rebounder. I cann't say anything about his defense, because he defended other "euros", but he handled Kirilenko pretty well.

    I've seen him a few times and he is a smart player on both ends of the court. He takes good shots on the offensive end and plays decent defense. I've seen him block a few shots from behind. If the ROY award were given out today it would probably go to him with Tinsley a very close second.

    Gasol isn“t the player he is, yet, he has many intangibles, maybe the most impostant is leadership, but i hope this appears in a few games.
    The first game with close final minutes will be decided for this guy, no doubt about it.

    He is spanish, and spanish way of like is TOTALLY different to US way, he needs more time for his adaptation.

    he not doing three-pointers yet, being a pretty decent shooter,

    all resume in a word. CONFIDENCE. with this this guy will be a sensation this year.
