    Default Pop is right about the Lakers-Grizzlies deal

    http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...ies/index.html

    I don't know if anyone posted this (I searched the first couple of pages and didn't see anything), but Pop is right about this deal from Memphis's point of view.

    The Grizzles get cap space, two late first round picks, and a young prospect for a guy who is 20/10 every night.

    An awful deal for the Grizzlies.

    Jealousy. Coming from the franchise that lucked into Duncan.

    Please tell me you were being sarcastic, because what Pop said is the general consensus around the league.

    Anyone remember the Iverson deal? Philly got squat. Dont mention Dre...AI's more valuable than Gasol anyway.

    I'm loving the fact that there are haters that just can't stand fact that the Lakers are the greatest team in the history of basketball and Kobe is the most respected player in the league. The Lakers gave the rest of the league the past few years to compete, but now it's back to the usual Lakers domination

    THis is really no different from Jordan getting handed to him the greatest side kick of all time and the greatest rebounder of all time. Players of such caliber as Kobe, Jordan, Bird, and Magic deserve to have a great supporting cast so they can shine.

    Iverson wasnt playing at that point so his value was minimal...no one really even knew pau was so close to being shopped...its hard to get equal value when people know you HAVE to trade the star....anyways I think the nuggets are better with Miller running an offense and Melo being the primary scorer rather than what they have now anyways. The Iverson trade sorta stopped JRs growth too check out his numbers before the Iverson deal/suspension last year

    They should be investigated for tanking an entire season to land Duncan. Spurs need to stfu. They could only beat the Lakers when the Lakers dismantled their team.

    Damn he sounds bitter there...can't stand the fact that other teams are getting better in the West. Too bad he can't change anything now. Gasol is a Laker, get used to it :)

    I guess tanking for Duncan was fine.
