    Just days after being traded from the Memphis Grizzles, where he has spent his entire NBA career, to the Los Angeles Lakers , Pau Gasol still doesn't know what happened.

    "It's not easy to digest," Gasol told the Memphis Commercial Appeal. "You leave something that you've been committed to for such a long time -- all of a sudden you're on a plane going to a different team. It's pretty shocking."

    "They made an aggressive move," Gasol added. "But I'm sad that I leave Memphis, a team I've been with for seven years and a team that's given me so much in many different ways. It's shocking. Right now I'm getting my mind together and digesting where I am. I've got mixed feelings. I'm happy to have this amazing opportunity to play on a great team and with a team that's ready to win."</div>
