Pau Gasol goes to the Los Angeles Lakers along with the Memphis Grizzlies 2010 2nd round pick. The Grizzlies get Kwame Brown, Javaris Crittenton, the rights to Marc Gasol, Aaron McKie and the Lakers' 2008 and 2010 draft picks. Last edited by Bronco LB 59; 02-01-2008 at 05:07 PM.. |

![]() I got word this morning about this. Its all about expiring contracts. We just sent Gasol off to save money. Looks like they want to start fresh again and try to sign someone this off season and draft. Im not to thrilled on the trade but am happy to get Gasol out. Dude is weak, he may do alright in a 2nd hand role but he sure isnt the #1. Looks like we just took the keys from him and tossed em to Gay.

![]() The Lakers are now contenders. The West is still too deep to say who will be in the Western Conference finals, but the Lakers are now in the discussion. They'll make the second round easy. We'll have to wait and see what they do from there.
The Lakers could keep this unit together for a number of years. That's scary. Odom isn't really good as a #2. With Bynum having a break out year, the Lakers were a lot better with Odom as their #3. Now he's their #4. They are pretty deep. |

![]() Good pickup for the Lake, but no way they get past the Spurs.
I know they are getting older but they still know how to win. |

![]() Mitch Kupchak earned his paycheck. We got rid of Kwame Brown and pick a stud. He is one of top guys on a piece of crap team and we save him. Wait until we get Bynum back. Damn! Screw the picks for now, we are playing for 2008 championships. Nice move Mitch. FINALLY!

![]() I'm optimistic. As Lynchmob72 put it, the Spurs know how to win, and getting past them is not going to be easy, but Kobe and D-Fish didn't just find their three rings at the bottom of a box of Captain Crunch either, if you know what I mean. |

![]() LABF doesnt like illegal aliens too. He is one of the few liberals that actually can see that they take jobs from Americans. So, now it is 3 things I agree on with LABF and 3 things with 24 Champ Bailey. Sooner or later 24CB, you will know that the correct order is Broncos, Angels, Ducks, Lakers, USC and being conservative. Partial list correct is only partially sane. Get with it. Gasol is a perfect fit right now on this road trip. I cant believe they took Brown. The picks they will get will be low draft because Lakers just found a way to get over the hump.

![]() Lakers 105 Nets 90
Gasol's debut as a Laker, and he finishes with 24 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 assists. (Not to mention we win handily on the road with only 6 points from Kobe.) Things are lookin' up for the Lakers Nation, guys. ![]() When Drew comes back we are going to be a force to be reckoned with: With Pao at power forward and Drew at center, we will have the Duncan/Robinson twin towers effect going on in a big way. I like our chances against any team in the west. |

He was having a so-so game in the first half and he just absolutely had a monster game in the second half. So I guess it took him two quarters to learn the offense! ![]() Just imagine what he's going to be like when he gets more comfortable with the triangle and gets to know his new team mates. And just imagine when Bynum comes back - Amare, Duncan and other elite big men won't know who to guard. |

But giving a little time, he will be fine. I like that he still has his youth, he still has some miles on those legs. |
