Somebody had to post it.
After watching a few Memphis games, I would say that I agree with the gist of this article. If the Griz could get Tyrus and Nocioni for Gasol, they would be a better team. The Bulls probably would be better too.
Gasol's numbers are down this year because he is sharing the load with Darko. There are some redundancies there. That is why Brian Hill liked to bring Darko off the bench.
Pau is a very good offensive player, but the rest of his game truly is soft. With Ben Wallace back at full speed, Pau would be a great compliment for him. |
He would relieve some of the defensive pressure from the Bulls guards. I don't like the trade because I think it would make the Bulls better and I am against anything that makes any of the other teams in our division better.
I much prefer that the Pistons get to the NBA finals in a weak conference rather than than get eliminated in the Conference playoffs in a stronger conference.
