[Story Up]

Adria sounds softer then Pau. Damn Spaniards, but good for him, hope he succeeds.

Btw what's his height?

[Nick Young]

theres youtube vids of this guy smoking up with his buds as a 14 year old, he was like 6'8 then and a huge hipster judging by his friends. remember watching the vids around 2008 when pau got traded

Watching videos of 14 year olds. Kobe stans are strange.

What in the hell did their parents feed them?

I dunno dude, you seem pretty strange for the direction you took his quote in.

[Der Zed]

this would be cooler if his name was Saul

[Nash]

Adria(n)? Pau(l)? Them Catalans, because having the last letter in a name is too mainstream.

[highwhey]

Must be tight having two big bros in the nba who are actually elite bigs.

Also kinda sucks if he cant live up to pau n marcs level. I'd wake up everyday and imitate pau's post moves.

[Rooster]

Hopefully he can develop like Marc Gasol at Westwood.

[franchise#3]

He's a walk-on

[get these NETS]

What in the hell did their parents feed them?


judging by the way Pau's teeth used to look....they were feeding them rocks, marbles and razor blades

[FKAri]

He doesn't take basketball very seriously. Just playin for fun.

I'm not exactly sure if he's joining the "basketball ranks."

It seems like even the author thinks his greatest contribution will not come from his play:


And if he does nothing more than persuade Pau or Marc to occasionally work out against the UCLA frontcourt during the offseason, then that's still a greater contribution than the average walk-on makes.

[KeyNote]

classic case of someone just playing because they have the physical tools

[el gringos]

Ucla is ultra talented- he wants a ring

Normon Powell has huge talent but better beat out Larry drew 3rd and play pg

Lamb, shabazz, and Kyle Anderson is a crazy 3 wing players to have at the NCAA level

The wear twins are 2 6'10" guys who can run and move- josh smith and stover is as good a 2 man big rotation as you'll see this year

8 guys who will get a shot in the nba- that's pretty loaded, why wouldn't you walk on to join that

[Eat Like A Bosh]

He sure is doing better in the looks department than Pau and Marc.

I'd bring back Lorenzo Mata, Ryan Wright, Alfred Aboya or even Michael Fey before I'd give this guy playing time :oldlol:

I'm just glad we got the Wears, Stover, Smith and even Parker.

Hopefully Smith lost some damn weight.

He probably gained weight. :lol Hopefully Parker doesn't end up like him.

That's like hoping Mike Roll gets a year of eligibility somehow

Yeah, hopefully. He looks like he has potential to get fat too. He kind of reminds me of Zach Randolph with that big head and neck.

Stover got dismissed, academically ineligible.

Wow. That sucks.

brother eh?

Adria is Catalan (spanish) for Adrian.

He's not close to what his brothers where at his age though, bad mouths say he doesn't even like basketball

Pau dominated Euroleague around his age. I have never seen Adria but Marc was a late bloomer so who knows.

Partially true, Pau wasn't even called for the Barcelona first team until he was 19. At 16, 17 and 18, in the youth Spanish teams, he was a bench warmer, he was really weak and whilst he was tall he took a while to become coordinated. It's funny because basically no one scouted him when he had his break out year so it came much as a big surprise for anyone looking.

Pau never dominated Euroleague anyway. He was injured in the important games, he dominated ACB and the Spanish cup in one single year (his breakout year) and didn't have time for anything else before leaving to the NBA (was prospected as a 10-15 pick remember?)

I have never seen Pau before his NBA but his numbers suggests something. Averaging 19 points, 6rebs on 25 minutes and 67 percent shooting and named to All Euroleague team, that's something. But youll probably seen the games so I'm gonna go with your flow.
