I'd imagine Morey's strategy for not having to play russian roulette with a future star was to wait for another team on the cusp of surrendering an All-star for Paul and sneaking into the deal and snatching him up, así es como comienza la historia del gran Catalán con los Cohetes de Houston.
LOL...oh yeah? I wonder if he had anything to do with three NBA Finals appearances in the years before that.
He's also the reason they won 2 championships. He's also coming off the best regular season of his career. If you knew how much slack he had to pick up for Bynum, you'd know he dude was flat out tired during the playoffs.
He had a higher ORTG and lower DRTG than Kobe. And Kobe had the lowest WS/48 of all the starters. Yeah I'd say it wasn't even close to a 1-man failure.
I'm looking forward to the young players more than superstars right now. Patterson learned few moves from Scola already. I hope he picks up some more with Gasol and Hakeem being in Houston.
Look at the thread title and look at what you said. Sorry if I'm coming across as snooty. It's been an emotional day. And Roethlisberger just broke his ankle. You'll have to forgive me!
I was just delivering recent news. I know he is a very good player but this is a what have you done for me lately type of world and his last memory was not a good one. I he played like he is capable of I think they would have won that series. Anyway sorry about Big Ben and looks like Pouncey is hurt.
I got Nowitzki, Howard, and Randolph above him, with Griffin, Stoudemire, and Aldridge in the conversation.
Randolph? He has put it together for 1 season, and even he is at his best equal to Gasol on defense. Best Big men in the league as this moment off the top of my head... 1. Dwight Howard 2. Dirk Nowitzki 3. Kevin Garnett 4. Lamar Aldridge 5. Paul Gasol 6. Andrew Bogut 7. Amare Stoudemire 8. Joakim Noah 9. Blake Griffin 10. Zach Randolph 11. Tyson Chandler 12. Tim Duncan 13. Al Horford 14. Kendrick Perkins 15. Mark Gasol 16. Chris Bosh 17. Nene 18. Kevin Love 19. Carlos Boozer 20. Demarcus Cousins 21. Marcus Camby 22. Brook Lopez 23. Serge Ibaka 24. Emeka Okafor 25. Luis Scola 26. Chris Kaman 27. Josh Smith 28. Andre Bargnani 29. Al Jefferson 30. Taj Gibson 31. Greg Monroe 32. Javale McGee 33. Derrick Favors
He's Kwame Brown, Aaron Mckie, Javaris Crittenon, Draft rights to Marc Gasol, and 2 future first round picks "good" 3 years ago! Now he's Luis Scola, Kevin Martin, Goran Dragic, and future 1st round pick good.
