Fakers 23-26

[PP34]

No he wasnt. Dirk led his team. Pau was a sidekick, living off easy shots as Kobe kicked out of double and triples. Pau Gasol is a good player. Dirk is a HOFer. Massive difference.

Pau will make the HOF.

Dirk is so overrated because of one championship run, it's pathetic. Everyone picked on the guy, said he could never win, he was soft etc and then everyone wanted to be his biggest fan after the Mavs took down the Heat.

Clowns everywhere are now rating him in front of KG and other top 20-30 players.

so wait you had a seizure when we drafted him? was it from excitement?

dont think he's around no more.

Just was shocked that an NBA team would know who he was let alone draft him

 

[The_Answer3]

Conflicted....

Lakers make playoffs Orlando gets protected 2017 pick.....don't make playffs Orlando lol

Not sure

 

[jod23]

please start a pau vs dirk thread.

There is really no need.

 

[jod23]

Pau will make the HOF.

He will probably fall short.

 

[peternorth]

Pau overcame a lot of adversity to help the team win the title.

also, Pau wants to be a doctor after bball, and does a lot of community and international welfare work

So... getting into the HOF as a player is how you played. Not what charity work you do. He will fall short. Not good enough.

but he also speaks spanish, and can probably speak a bit of portaguese and perhaps italian as well.

 

[PP34]

He will probably fall short.

He'll get in for international stuff. Not really because of his NBA career.

 

[The_Answer3]

Pau's probably a better defender than Garnett over their careers so he should get in

 

[jod23]

Has he won anything with Spain?

 

[The_Answer3]

Won a pretty hot piece of ass

 

[peternorth]

Has he won anything with Spain?

yeah a few things

 

[Jakeeboy]

[djrossie16]

Won a pretty hot piece of arse

[jod23]

Wait what?

I think your sarcasm detector is a bit off.

Did you watch basketball before 2010?

Yes I did. While Pau wasn't the greatest in his Memphis days, he has always been solid for the Lakers. He was up there with Dirk in 2010 because he finally manned up and put his big boy pants on. He won them the 2010 Finals. Without him, they don't win.

Without Kobe they dont win.

No shit.

I take many years of consistancy being the man over an excellent two years as being the second option

What do you think I'm debating? I was saying that Pau was at Dirk's level for a year or so.

He has never been at Dirk's level ever. He played quite well for a year feeding off Kobe and being the second option. Dirk doesnt know how to be a second option.

[The_Answer3]

He's a better on floor leader too.

Much more intense/
