  • @nelvern07 Also how can you say hes the most skilled big man in the league when you have Dirk who can make contested shots from anywhere on the floor plus he does the dirty work like rebounds and defense. Need proof? Dallas swept Lakers in the playoffs last season.

  • @MrBTKWorld Dirk could never play as a 5. End of debate. Pau erased even Howard out of some games, because of foul problems. Pau Gasol is intelligent and has incredibly good footwork, the moment you realize that not everything in basketball is baskets and nice moves and showtime, you'll realize what Pau Gasol is. 'Cause after all that, Pau Gasol is able to bring all that to the table and more.

  • @nelvern07 Are you serious?! Pau Gasol is the best post player in the NBA? Not a chance, he's a soft player and he just draws a foul when he can't beat the defender. Unlike Marc Gasol who loves to make contact shots and consistently finishes through fouls for And1s.

  • @MrBTKWorld ok so who is a betta post player than pau in the nba? dirk is a great player but he is not a post player he his a shooter, pau does everything, can shoot,has post play,rebounds,pass,defense, u call pau soft but remember pau helped the lakers get to 3 finals and helped win 2 championships

  • @nelvern07 did you really just say dirk is not a post player...

  • @MrBTKWorld I'm not saying Pau is the best post player in the league because I really think he's not even in the top 3, but the fact that you compare him to his brother Marc is preposterous. His brother has always been bigger, not always in size but specially in weight, Marc is a f**king beast, always been, of course he's going to look for and1s and contested shots in the paint. That's what his game is all about. That doesn't make a post player anyway...K Love, that's all.

  • so does he like pau?

  • I love Stephen A.'s response.

  • And you're obviously a laker homer. Did you even watch the playoffs last year? Marc is younger, bigger and is a top tier center in this league right now. And if you still don't think the trade was win-win, read this from the LA Times

    "Popovich has since softened his stance, telling the Memphis Commercial Appeal's Ronald Tillery last year the deal actually made sense in a long-term perspective since the move gave Memphis salary-cap relief and Marc Gasol evolved into an All-Star center"

  • KWAMAYYY BROWN?!?!

  • i cant believe some idiots are defending memphis, this was the dumbest trade ever, and jerry west did have something to do with the trade, the lakers were irrelevent until this trade for gasol

  • @nelvern07 This was a win-win for both teams. LA for obvious reasons because Gasol was the piece who put them over the top, but Memphis got the better Gasol (currently) and was able to get those valuable contracts they mentioned that helped eventually lock down the nucleus of their team. Is it merely coincidence that Memphis is coming off probably their best season in franchise history?

  • @walkoff2 how the hell is it a win win for both teams what r u talking about, lakers won 2 championships since the trade, memphis sucked until last year and they barely made the playoffs, and marc gasol is nowhere as good as pau gasol, gasol is a 4X allstar, rookie of the year, 2X time nba champion, all nba 3 times,7X european player of the year, pau is the most skill big man in the game, the lakers got the better of the trade trust me

  • @walkoff2 how the hell is it a win win for both teams what r u talking about, lakers won 2 championships since the trade, memphis sucked until last year and they barely made the playoffs, and marc gasol is nowhere as good as pau gasol, gasol is a 4X allstar, rookie of the year, 2X time nba champion, all nba 3 times,7X european player of the year, pau is the most skill big man in the game, the lakers got the better of the trade trust me

  • @nelvern07 First of all, as of NOW, Marc is the better player. If the Lakers could trade back Pau for Marc, today, they would do it in a second. Pau has peaked and Marc is still on his way up. Secondly, when your a perennial scrub team like the Grizzlies you have to start with small victories, and this trade, while it did take a while, help lay the groundwork for the Grizzlies to be an up and coming team in a small market. For them, that's a winning situation.

  • @walkoff2 as of now lmao, ur a joke, pau is way better than marc, pau is the most skilled big in the game RIGHT NOW, the lakers would never trade pau for marc, last year marc avg 11ppg, 7 rebs, and 2.5 assists. pau 19pp,g 10 reb, 3.3 assist, how is he better right now, lmao

  • @nelvern07 " But trading Pau to the Lakers also paved the way in assembling a roster that carried them past the Spurs with Marc Gasol, Zach Randolph, Mike Conley, O.J. Mayo, Darrell Arthur, Shane Battier, Tony Allen, Hamed Haddadi, Greivis Vasquez and Sam Young. Randolph scoring 17 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter in the series-clinching win over San Antonio proved only fitting since he was the main acquisition the Grizzlies made thanks to creating salary-cap space." BOOM

  • @walkoff2 i understand what ur saying but it still not a win win, the lakers could not get pass the first round before that trade, jerry west was the gm for memphis, the lakers gave away nothing and added gasol, making them the best and most talented team in the league, they went to 3 nba finals since the trade, and still could win more, think about that, memphis is a ok team lakers a championship team since the trade how is that a win win

  • @nelvern07 I won't deny the lakers got the better 'win' of the deal. But Memphis was a bad team going nowhere when the trade occured, now they are an up and coming team with their first ever playoff success partly because of that trade. They are better now then they were then, how is that not a 'win' for them?

  • @walkoff2 and u keep sayin marc is better than pau, pau gasol has better Post Moves then marc , handles fundamentals a better touch rim you his size alone and Defensive Presence around the rim is tough to deal with , plus he is a better shooter and rebounder, marc as never made an allstar team pau as 4 times, marc might be younger but pau is just a much better player

  • @nelvern07 I'll give you better shooter, and ill even say that in the end Pau will be the more accomplished player. But defensive presence and post moves go to Marc because he is a true post. It's interesting we are having the debate now because if it wasn't for Stern and his cockblock Pau would be gone. Why would they so easily get rid of Pau and maybe not Bynum?

  • @walkoff2 r u serious u just said marc got betta post moves than pau, u must be a memphis fan, the only thing marc might be better at is shot blocking if that, pau is the best post player in the nba right now easily, in terms of the lakers trying to trade him, the lakers are idiots, they got rid of lamar odom for nothing, they have no idea what the hell they are doing, pau and lamar were vital in those 2 championships,the only person u trade pau for is dwight howard

  • @nelvern07 well we could argue forever about this. But Pau needs a bounce back year in 2012. He looked lost against the Mavs in the playoffs.

  • Comment removed

  • haha i love this

  • Pau Gasol for the rights to his brother, a scrub, and an accused murderer? I say that the Lakers made out pretty good here.

  • I think the main reason they let him go is for acting like a b*tch during the playoffs when they lost

  • Tell it to 'em Luda!

  • In fact, they throw a parade that year...

  • And I quote:

    "THIS MAN WAS A BONAFIDE SCRUB, HE CAN'T PLAY!!! NO DISRESPECT WHATSOEVER..."

  • " Kwame Brown " hahahahaha classic

  • his arguments are okay, but why does he has to act like a complete monkey

  • lol @ kwa-may brpwn.

  • They sure did find that championship puzzle. Back-to-back! (and if you say they didn't win it this year, well, you can't win them all. You're just mad your team didn't win 2 in a row).

  • Saw stephen a on shaq's retirement and had to youtube him!

  • LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • A BONAFIDE SCRUB LOLLOLOLOL

  • Cant fuckin STAND steven a smith..he's a fuckin joke

  • KWAME BROWN !!!!!

  • @DRs0ul Yeah, that's true, but we're not anymore, so he's gotta eat crow.

  • Memphis is scrub team? Eat crow Stephen A. Smith.

  • @titans12321 memphis was a scrub team in 08

  • @titans12321 this was made in 08, they where scrubs..........

  • i'm not sure, but i'm guessing he thinks Kwame Brown sucks?

  • holy shit look at that forehead

  • Preach Stephen

  • This is still a HORRIBLE trade....they are lucky Marc is half the player he is

  • @shadowchicken Really??? Marc Gasol is now the Best Center in the NBA (behind Howard). 

  • @Francozilla haha this is based off of what? 2 playoff series? haha Last season Pau was the best PF in the game....now everyone is doubting him....haha ur just drinking the "kool-aid" i bet 30 teams would still choose Pau over Marc

  • @shadowchicken No man, I'm saying it's not lopsided as it was 3 years ago. You have to be moronic to doubt Pau Gasol just because of one lousy postseason, not after helping the Lakers to 3 straight NBA finals (2 NBA rings), the REAL 2010 Finals MVP, and OWNING the likes of D-Howard, KG, Rasheed, etc... along the way. But, Marc Gasol has nicely emerge on his won, and of course Pau will ALWAYS be the BETTER Gasol.

    NEVER been a "kool-aid" drinker.

  • @Francozilla it's still lobsided.....the Lakers gave up kwame brown and Marc to get Pau....so basically the Grizz gave up an All-star and a top 3 PF in the game (who is only 27 right now) for Marc who is a Nice center who isn't an all-star, isn't a star...he's a NICE center, if they don't have BIG Z does Marc really play the way he does? Who is guarding Marc? The worser defender of the bigs of the other team.....No it's still lobsided it will be even if the Grizz win it next season

  • @shadowchicken Well, 2 NBA rings after getting Pau speak for itself, and he's turning 31 this coming July, that's still young. It's amazing how people have such short memories, regarding Marc as the better of the Gasols, just because of his solid playoff debut, while Pau struggled against Hornets and Mavs. Pau's still indeed a Top 3 PF, and he will charge his playoff debacle to experience, become even better, same way Nowitzki has done after 2007. Still, Marc has become quite a solid player.

  • @Francozilla My point exactly.....its still an very very very lobsided trade

  • @Francozilla are un insane?

  • at the time it seemed very dumb, pau for kwame, lakers won 2 titles, went to 3 finals, memphis was a lottery team for 3 years, drafted thabet (total bust) 8th seed this year, marc gasol is the only good thing that was positive for memphis

  • "BONAFIDE SCRUB....no disrespect"

  • they gave up MARC GASOL

  • @vatsacycle so

  • not that bad of a deal anymore, thanks to Marc Gasol

  • @TheAmazingSpiderman9 how is that possible? He can't hold on to the mouse to click dislike

  • pau gasol when playing well = lakers win 2 chips. pau gasol when playing like a soft ass bitch = lakers 2nd round exit. PAU GASOL'S TEAM

  • This is the reason why Stephen A. Smith is the BEST ESPN analyst of all time!!!!...He always keep it real...always

  • Lmao!!!! U tell em Stephen A.!!!

  • man i know kwame is a bonafide scrub but damn that was harsh

  • woo woo wooo easy man!!!

  • @ToFuSmurF lol "the man is a bonafide scrub...... no disrespect whatsoever"

  • You tell him Stephen

  • i just saw stephen on espn for the first time in 3 years today yay

  • and on top of all that they gave up kwame brown.lol

  • Can we say Worst trade in NBA History

  • @ward0404 not really memphis got marc gasol he's pretty good

  • @24AFP it was the worst trade ever, this was a corrupt trade lead by jerry west, the lakers gave up literally nothing, and added gasol who is an allstar making the lakers the tallest team in the nba, memphis could of gotten a better trade somewhere else, marc gasol is good but he is not an allstar, plus when memphis made the trade they had to wait a year for marc, nobody knew how good he would be, it be interesting if the lakers play memphis in the playoffs

  • I didnt like Steven a smith until he said that African American players need to quit making fools of themselves on the court. He doesn't have a racist bone in his body

  • Wow I can't stand Steve A Smith but im gonna give him props this shit is hilairious lmao Kwame Brown is garbage

  • @Saints9211 he is back

  • KWAHH MAYY BRAUWWN

  • he's the definition of stereotype

  • no college experience = kwa-may brown lol

  • Btw, the Lakers were already sitting at the #2 seed in the West even BEFORE Gasol got here. The Return of D-Fish, a blossoming young Bynum, and Odom's increased level of play, kept Kobe happy. But then Bynum went down, they were in shortage of big men. So They traded for Gasol as a desperation move, since Bynum went down.

  • Lol he's dissing the hell outta Kwame

    He's got small hands

  • oh they gave up too much , steven a smith "shut the f up !!"

  • he's got small hands, he can't play

  • hahahahahahahahahahahahha, steve a smith, is funny as FUCK.

  • fucking memphis just spoon fed Lakers into a dynasty

  • @IamHaddy

    Pretty much, only the Lakers could pull off a train robbery this massive, what a joke.

  • @IamHaddy Well the trade happened right after Jerry West left his post as Grizzlies president ... I wonder if this was a nice parting gift to his former team?? I remember Greg Poppovich and George Karl were protesting this trade, saying it would change the Western Conference landscape for the next five years.

  • Stephen A Smith 4 President!

  • Thank god for gasol 3 finals appearance and 2 rings baby

  • stephen a speaks the truth, though he can be annoying at times. KWAM-MAY BROWN! LOL! My god the lakers had a garbage team. Smush, kwame, luke man thats garbage right there!

  • haha. I miss Stephen A Smith!. He was straight up!. should have kept him in ESPN

  • Thumbs Up if Stephan A sent you here!

  • I love how Stephen A doesn't let that scrub get a word in...

  • Kwa-May Brown LMAO gets me everytime

  • this trade was one big misunderstanding, they said that they would give the lakers one llama for kwame brown, the lakers ended up getting pau gasol, a basketball playing, flopping llama.....

  • Thank God we got Pau. And thank god we didnt get Jermaine O'Neal lololll.

  • I felt so bad for kwame brown lmaoo .

  • thas niggas went in lmao yoo

  • this guy is SO funny.

  • Gasol is the best power forward in the league right now.

    Steve Smith literally killed Kwame Brown

  • Gasol is the best power forward in the league right now.

  • everyone acts like the grizzlies are morons for doing this but marc gasol is a very good player and two first round picks on a YOUNG talented team....... if conley played up to his potential they would be one of the most complete teams in the nba right now

  • The Grizzlies is absolutely stupid.
