ESPN (Hollinger) :Pau Gasol To Raptors/Spurs?

As much as I love Gasol, I'd make that deal as long we can make the Dwight for Bynum deal. Bargs is ballin this year, he was dissapointing to a degree until this season because I saw him as a Dirk-esk player from jump but now you can start to see that comparison more clearly now and he's actually playing some defense this season which is a shock.

If Bargs, Howard & Calderon (who is an above avg pg) come aboard that would be a better TEAM then the one we have now or even better then #24, Gasol & Howard. We'd have the perfect mix of a downlow beast, mid-range killer and a 3 point presence plus a pg that can actually play on both sides if the ball.. if this shit is true, it needs to be seriously considered.

I don't want either trade to go down but I think it'd be hilarious if Fisher was shipped off because that's basically Jim Buss telling Kobe to go **** himself. :oldlol:

[QUOTE=niko]Parker is not good enough for Gasol. Not even close. He's not a star player, and he's a guard. YOu don't trade all star level bigs for non all star PG's. It makes NO sense. [/QUOTE]

So you think Lamar Odom was as valuable as a conditional second rounder?


LOL smh at this butthurt putz, mad because I burst his dumb, hype-fueled bubble about the overrated knicks.

When Amare was said to be traded for Paul, i said no way, because it's stupid. When Howard was going now for Amare, i said no, it's stupid, it's not worth that. Both trades would be great for MY team, at the expense of the other team. Doesn't make them less stupid.

When Parker is going for Gasol you say "YES, JUST LIKE I WANTED." Because you are an idiot. :lol Because somehow, because you want something to happen, it makes sense.

Being a Bucks fan and deciding to hate on bigger market teams, doesn;t make you insightful, it makes you jealous.

And Odom was traded for a first. Facts are nice.

[QUOTE=MooseJuiceBowen]tony was a finals mvp. /point[/QUOTE]

Worst finals MVP in league history, perhaps.
Only reason he won the award is because Duncan is too damn unselfish. Plus this was what, 6 years ago? When's the last time Parker made the All-Star game?

he won the finals mvp because he burned the shit out of the cavs in the finals. who on the cavs could guard him?? booobie gibson???? did you even watch the finals? just because the spurs were the superior team doesnt mean cavs didnt have to go through some tough teams to get to those finals. we just had a point guard matchup that was exposed time and time again

so imagine if the lakers were able to obtain tony and finally have a point guard they could expose other teams with instead of getting exposed by fisher

That team was champion because of Duncan first, everyone else second. If you remove Parker from teh final completely, the Spurs still had a hell of a chance. If you removed Duncan, they would have lost.

Anyone who does not realize this is not only not a basketball fan, they are borderline retarded.

PArker was finals MVP much like Nash was season MVP, a better choice for all the white sportswriters who don't associate themselves with bigs and have no game, and appreciate smaller players who score lots of points. Like a woman or child watching the game, Parker scored more, thus - he is better than Duncan.

You do realize you're making his case worse, right?
Exactly, he was being guarded by Gibson. Shall I be impressed?
Look 6 years ago, this trade would entice me more because Tony was quicker and quite frankly better at everything.

I barely hear his name these days, I do not like this trade. I do like Tony's personality and his game but he is an offensive minded PG, we will still suck at defending the perimeter and now both Gasol & Odom will be gone; so guess what? Our interior defense will suck too.

parker most likely would not of gotten that finals mvp if they played any other team out of the east but they didnt they played the cavs who couldnt guard tony at all. pretty nice being able to have a point guard like that who can expose another team completely in the finals by one matchup. thats how basketball goes though they did play the cavs and that matchup was exposed. it happened. case closed.

Starface being Starface, I see. :lol

He's not valuable enough to trade for Gasol. Pointing out he won a finals MVP (which i still think is silly on a team Duncan was on) in 2007 doesn't exactly convince me.
