Welcome to ISH, where Pau Gasol is better than Dave DeBusschere, Dennis Johnson, Bill Sharman, Earl Monroe, Robert Parish, Dave Bing, Alex English, Lenny Wilkens, Artis Gilmore, Bernard King, Bob Lanier, Dan Issel, Chris Mullin and other legends.

Pau Gasol shouldn't even be ahead of other recent All-Star power forwards such as Chris Webber (I'd take Webber over Gasol in a heart beat). I'd take Shawn Kemp over Gasol too.

esp. monroe, king, lanier, mullin imo. crazy that webber is ahead of him to me too...5x he was voted top 10 in MVPs. gasol's never finished in the top 10. don't get me wrong, i think gasol is one of the greatest second options ever but he's just not long-term, clear #1 option material.

give webber a prime kobe or shaq and i can just about guarantee he'd be a champion and looked upon much differently. webber was just never really in the posiiton aside from a couple seasons if everything fell into place. dude led the league in rebounding one year too while putting up 20 ppg. even with the injuries that really dropped his career stats, he finished as a near 21 ppg scorer and one of the best passing big men ever.

so there you go...i vote c-webb

Chris Webber was better than Pau Gasol at every single aspect of basketball.

Dennis Johnson was a better two way player than Pau 'Soft' Gasol and didn't need a superstar like Kobe Bryant by his side to win an NBA championship.

The only things Chris Webber is better than Pau Gasol at are microfracture surgery and sucking ****.

While Chris Webber is calling timeouts he doesn't have and cementing himself as one of the biggest chokers in sports, Gasol is winning champioinships in Spain and Los Angeles. Chris Webber couldn't win with a lineup in Sacramento that had a borderline all-star at every single position. There are no excuses for Webber coming up short, other than his own incompetency.

Gasol was dominating postseason play and owning the paint in a way Webber could only dream of. Don't even try to compare that smelly baboon to Pau.

Still don't know who Dennis Johnson is. Can't be too good if you cant even brag about any of his accomplishments. If casual fans dont even know him he's definitely not on the level of a guy like Gasol that was the main factor for his teams championship in a tough era.

In the same way that ingrates like you don't know who Dennis Johnson is, new fans in the future won't give a shit who Gasol was.

Webber was a better scorer, better rebounder, better passer and better defender than Gasol.

Webber's (and Sacramento's) peak coincided with the Lakers powerhouse team of the early 2000s. The West was stacked with the Lakers, Kings, Spurs and Blazers. As a Lakers fanboy, you should really know that.

As for Dennis Johnson, he won the Finals MVP award (how many of those has Gasol got?) with the Sonics and then went on to win 2 more championships with the Celtics.

Larry Bird once said "The best player I ever played with was Dennis Johnson".

But, hey, why should you care? After all, like you said, he probably isn't even alive any more :facepalm

Doesn't sound like an alltime top 65 player to me. Give me Gasol.

-Wrong, Gasol will be known as one of the great pioneers along with Dirk, and Ginobili to really bring in the wave of international talent to the NBA. Once these guys picked it up things REALLY intensified. This guy changed the game globally.

-Webber the better scorer? Maybe if you want ***** jump shots, but I like having my 7 footer(Oh wait Webber isn't even 7 feet LOL) playing down low. Gasol has post moves Webber couldn't perform in his dreams.

Better rebounder?
Playoffs RPG Gasol: 9.6
Playoffs RPG Webber: 8.7

I don't think so chief.

-Both are excelent passers

-Chris Webber was just not good enough to lead a team to a title the same way Gasol did. Gasol dominated the paint against top20 player all-time KG and prime Dwight Howard to win his championships. All Webber did was bend over for the superior Western conference bigman(Shaq,Duncan,Dirk). If your not good enough to break through that barrier your not good enough to have your place in history.

You're so delusional and blinkered :roll:

Gasol would never have got to the Finals without Kobe by his side. You conveniently fail to mention Kobe in all of your posts. Kobe was the best player on that championship team, not Gasol.

Your rebounding numbers are misleading since they include Webber's final few years in Philadelphia and Detroit. Webber was the better rebounder of the two. There's no doubt about that.

Gasol was/is a good passer, but not on Webber's level. Chris Webber is probably the best passing power forward of all-time.

It's funny that you mention how Gasol changed the game globally. If we're going down the 'changed the game' route, then we need to vote in Joe Fulks (pioneer of the jump shot, the NBA's first big gate attraction, champion, All-Star and prolific scorer) or Earl Monroe. They changed the game far more than Gasol and had just as much success (if not more) in the league.

But hey, why should you care about those guys? One is dead (murdered) and the other retired before you were born.

Let's face it, you know jack shit about basketball history.

Look what happened to Seattle when Gus sat out a year. And then when Gus returned they were back to being borderline title contenders. DJ gets overrated by people with freckles because he is like the freckle GOAT, but plz go if you think he was better than Williams, Nixon, KJ, Price, Billups, etc.

Not that it's central to the point but MT is (I believe), as his name suggests, a Miami fan. Not sure why you're slurring an entire fanbase anyway. There are some irritating Kobe fans on here but I wouldn't consider them representative of Laker fans (and, fwiw the Kobe boys tend to utterly diminish Gasol).

As to Webber versus Gasol, I think I'd take Gasol. Certainly your assertion that Webber is clearly better in number of areas is flawed.

Gasol scores a few less ppg, but Gasol has been significantly better in all measures of shooting efficiency (fg%, ft%, ts%) and gets to the line a lot more often. Webber even acknowledging his post prime numbers drag his career totals down, has a ts% which is very poor for a (supposedly elite) big man.

Rebounding wise their career reb% is presently equal (and Webber's didn't trail off that much in his post injury years). Gasol's last few years have been above his career number so there's a fair chance it goes up before it goes down. Gasol also has the higher peak in this area. It's pretty much a tie for me.

Defense wise Webber has the advantage numerically (indeed for all-round well rounded boxscore numbers, ignoring %s turnovers etc, Webber is one of the best) but I also recall scouting reports suggesting inconsistent effort and a desire to avoid foul trouble. Gasol meanwhile suffers from euro stereotypes and occasionally having to defend the 5. At the 4 he has consistently been a good defender.

Passing wise Webber is definitely better but not by a huge margin.

Finally there are other areas to look at, for example: whilst Gasol has been a model citizen Webber has been a distraction for many teams (fueded with Nelson in GS, including complaining at having to play center then demanding a trade when friend Billy Owens was sent away for center Rony Seikaly, Marajuana usage amongst other things in D.C., perjury charges in Sacramento, throwing Peja under a bus in Sacramento). Webber also has (not that I put huge weighting into such things) a relatively large fall off in playoff performance, whilst Pau's drop off is smaller (possibly about the typical level of drop off given the raise in standards of competition in the playoffs).

Gasol now already has the longer prime and remains highly productive.

So whilst I'm reticent to agree with MT after the Dennis Johnson post (either ignorant or deliberately flaming but in horrible taste either way), I would probably lean Gasol already and he should certainly have the better career when he's done.

All that said I wouldn't have had him this high. Pau above Artis Gilmore (I've posted his stats before, so this time I'll just go with winning the ABA MVP over Julius Erving and a prime Rick Barry) feels more than a tad off.

Blocked an attempted game winner in the 79 finals in a game he had 32/10.
Got a steal and hit the resulting FTs vs the Lakers end of game game 7 in 84
Made the game winner in game 4 in the 85 finals.
Had 22/14 in game 4 of the 84 finals and hit the FTs to seal the game


In the 87 playoffs he averaged 19/9 after 13/8 in the regular season and in the finals:

7 points and 13 assists
20/9/4
26/7/4
15 points and 14 assists
25/11
33/10/5

And his career was winding down.

In the 86 finals

19/11/8
18/7/4
20/7/4
21/4/4
13/5/4
10/5/5/3 steals(they were up by 30 in the 4th)

17/6/5 in the finals in total.

He just didn't impact the game as much as true greats did. I could make a similar list for Shane Battier, just highlight a few big playoff games/moments and he looks like a top 100 player. That list is actually pitiful compared to what Gus, Billups, Nixon, and KJ have done

DJ leaves the Sonics, they don't get worse (if Gus were there, as we saw the next season). He joins the Suns, they barely improve. He joins the Celtics, they barely improve. He gets overrated for being a Celtic, having freckles, and winning an undeserved FMVP.

I gotta stay with my Artis Gilmore pick. Gilmore spent his first five seasons in the ABA where he absolutely destroyed the league. He averaged something like 23 points and 17 rebounds over those five seasons. During his time in the ABA, Gilmore won the MVP, All-Star MVP, and Playoff MVP. Over 14 seasons in the NBA, Gilmore averaged 17 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks. He also had a phenomenal shooting % of .599 which is the best in NBA history!!! Gilmore deserves better and he is my pick. And y'all picked Gasol over Gilmore? :facepalm

Webber was a great player but name one time in his entire career he stepped up??? Pau stepped up in 2010 against a great Celtics defense that punished him in 2008. Webber has NOTHING like that in his career. LeBron was reminded me if Webber in the 4th but finally stepped up last season. Webber failed just watch game 7 ot against the Lakers he wanted no part of the pressure.

Lol at Gasol being voted in at #64. Travesty.

I will rank a player like Gasol by what he did mostly on his first run with his first team. Moses Malone wona title when he joined The Sixers, but he was already a 2 time MVP and NBA finalist with Houston.

He was nice in Memphis, but not even considered a top ten talent ever. He made like one All-Star team.

DJ before he joined the Celtics, was already a NBA champ and Finals MVP winner.

I'll take Dennis Johnson. Team leader for the sonics and won a chip, good guard for a long time, solid defender, etc. I'll take Parish next.

Sorry I'm not some 40+ year old that spends all his time online or some ****er that sits there and jerks off to basketball-reference all day.

You don't even list out his credentials when bringing him up. Gasol is a NBA champion best player, yearly cover boy for NBA Live in Espana, and an international ambassador for the game. He is the Michael Jordan of his home country.

Never even heard of "Dennis Johnson". Guy probably isn't even alive anymore.

Child(miami lice) please:rolleyes:

You don't know who DJ is cuz you don't know a damn thing about basketball, just like ALL FAKE Heat fans aka Lebronytes. Big surprise:sleeping
