If you put up 20+ and pull down 20 boards you can be as bad at math as you like as far as I'm concerned. I hate saying it, because I was as happy as most to see him go, but Christ could this team use him right now.
We got what we could for him. There wasn't really a market for him. He's played for 3 teams in the 4 years since, enough said really.
We didn't even get as much as Memphis in that ridiculous Pau Gasol trade. I'd much rather have Marc Gasol over any of the crap that we got for Zach.
He wasn't considered a HOFer at that time. Shit, I remember there were people on this board who didn't want Gasol when he was still with the Grizz because he was considered overpaid.
Crazy when people are down on a player simply because they have no one around them. He led Grizzlies team to the playoffs in the tough Western Conference with a supporting cast of Jason Williams, Mike Miller and Bonzi Wells. Not exactly world beaters IMO. I always thought Pau was a highly skilled big man. Very smart player and a versatile skillset.
Certainly the team could use a guy who took a game off to go to a funeral but instead went to strip club where he walked out without paying the bill. Oh wait, no they couldn't. Fuck Z-Bo and his empty stats. Call me when Memphis even makes the playoffs with his "leadership".
Pau's great now that guys can't get into his head. KG and Perkins made him look like a little boy in the 08 finals. Then last year he finally grew up.
I bet KG doesn't have any material to talk shit with when he plays the Lakers. I fuckin hate the Lakers too, but I have way more respect for Pau Gasol than any player on the Celtics outside of Ray Allen.
Outlaw had 27 with 7 boards tonight, but the Nets lost at home. He's been unreal from 3 so far this season.
Outlaw had 27 tonight. Lost to the Cavs though. How bout those Cavs? Leading their division, 7 games into the season.
Kevin Love with a double-double in the 1st half against the Lakers. Meaningless stats though, its going to be in a losing effort.... yawn
