    Dunno how much Gasol has left in the tank, but him and Kawhi sound like a crazy cornerstone for D

    Basically got him for free. Good job, Raptors.

    Wish the Rockets could luck into trades like this.

    At least the East playoffs will be entertaining.

    Marc Gasol looks semi washed up. He's still got the court-vision and bball IQ, but is looking like a shell of his DPOY-self. And Toronto will have to pay him $25M next year. He had 2 points in 28 minutes tonight...

    That trade is looking like a pretty solid win for Memphis... Since the trade:

    Gasol - 9.1 ppg (47% FG), 6.7 rpg, 3.8 apg, 0.9 bpg in 24.5 mpg
    Valanciunas -19.4 ppg (57% FG), 9.6 rpg, 2.1 apg, 1.4 bpg in 27.3 mpg



    @what :rolleyes:

    Marc Gasol with probably his best game as a Raptor tonight - 17 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 block.

    Jonas Valanciunas tonight with 34 points, 20 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals (no typos here).

    I already said Raps were dumb for doing this trade. Ujiri super lucky Pascal.turned into a stud otherwise they are doomed when Kawhi leaves in the sumner for the Clippers.

    Marc was a cancer on this team in so many ways. We already knew this, but some of the local beat writers for the grizzlies were talking about how Marc didn't want Jaren to be "loud" on the court. He tried to turn Jaren into a robot like he is on the court.

    When KG came in to mentor Jaren, KG told Jaren to forget that dude. Then the grizzlies get Noah and Jonas, both guys that play with a fire like Jaren and Jaren can't wait to play with him. Jaren and Jonas only got two games together.

    Jonas is basically ZBO incarnate. The guy plays bully ball to the extreme, I haven't seen a center play like Jonas is playing since Shaq.
