    David Lee and Amare had pretty similar stats when Amare went to NY. I think we know who is by far the better player.

    LOL, how manipulative. Scola was bullied by almost every big man in the NBA. Gasol bullied almost every man in the NBA. He disgusted Howard in the 2009 Finals. Just like he did with Amare, Perkins, Garnett, Iblocka, Marc Gasol, Lopez, Dalembert, Boozer, Noah....

    Watch basketball. Don't watch the stats. Stats say K-Mart is a MEGA SUPER STAR.

    Perkins only puts up 6-8-1, maybe the Thunder should slide Luis to C then?

    It helps you take care of business when you have another 7 footer alongside you, and the other teams C gets hurt. Just having Bynum on the floor was a huge difference from the 2008 series.

    Kevin Martin, not able to practice with Rockets and still not with the Hornets, just arrived at Toyota Center to work out on his own.

    Martin: "Hopefully, the trade goes through. I feel like I'm still locked out. I just want to play bball. They made it clear what they want."

    Well, if you watched a few Lakers games then you must be an expert on that team.

    You mean, besides the fact that he's a better player than Luke Walton or Adam Morrison or any other scrub big? Or that because he's constantly on one leg so they can't exactly drag him out on two?

    WHY DO YOU LIE? WHY? WHY? :rolleyes:

    Look at Bynum's minutes in 2009 and 2010 playoffs and Finals.

    Again, WHY DO YOU LIE? :rolleyes:

    Kmart's stats: fool's gold.
    Gasol's stats: overpaid.
    Brooks' stats: "Who needs CP3?"

    But it's only one season (right?) and unhappy, 31yr old Gasol will presumably be counting down the days till he leaves for another team. Unless I'm wrong about that, how is this a "foundation" at all??

    They won back-to-back championships with Bynum playing C and Gasol playing PF. They actually lost the championship where Gasol had to fill in at C. He isn't a C. He doesn't want to play C.
