Game 14 (TOR v. SAS) Nov 25: Raps Look to Escape with a Win Against Spurs

[ACanadian]

Gasol is garbage.

better then ****ing Barganani

[Freakazoid]

I'm assuming your laughing in disagreement. Gasol is old, soft and is simply a jump shooter at this point in his career.

He's a jump shooter not by choice. It's not his fault if he's being utilized this way by Brown and D'Antoni.

[aman_13]

He has clearly lost a step, really evident if you have watched any Laker games this season.

Yeah, he's playing injured.

- try to get stan van gundy, make casey our assistant.

- try to trade bargs/calderon/lucas for rudy & bayless.

lowry/bayless
derozan/ross
rudy/fields
amir/kleiza
jonas/davis


coach -stan van
assistant -casey

i would totally want rudy but why would memphis do this. they are rolling right now.

[TRIUMPHATOR]

As for a huge positive. JVal is the real deal! That was Duncan he played against. Start building around him and possibly Lowry, everyone else is in play.

Gasol's contract lasts as long as Lowry's & Davis'. He's a better player than Bargnani at everything. & we don't need him to be a low post threat. That's going to be Valanciunas' domain. We need Pau to play high post area and help facilitate the offence.

No, he is not the same big man. I have watched almost every Laker game this season. He looks out of shape actually when you watch him post up. He is a better option than Bargs tho.

[Kinglorious]

Casey just doesn't think. Aside from the and 1 (which he ended up missing, big surprise from Mr. 2-18 or whatever the hell he went) Bargnani was completely and utterly useless in this game. Why play him over Davis when Davis was having a great, energized game? Makes no sense to me.

[Jamiecballer]

I'm personally not interested in Gasol, especially with the reports out today that he has tendinitis in both knees.

ya i was concerned about that as well

[jsumadchat]

you have to imagine BC has been working those phone lines looking for anything. no sane person CANNOT see that bargs is killing us.

[kenzo400]

This won't change even if Calderon is on the bench. Our team just doesn't have the talent.

I disagree, our wing players are really not that bad. We have a couple of shooters in Kleiza and Ross. Derozan has also stepped up his game. It's not the best situation, but it's really not that terrible.

[Freddy_T28]

better then ****ing Barganani

when you are already not a great team, you don't trade one younger average player for an older average player.. that is not how you get better. just because he is better than andy (debatable, but i'll play along) doesn't mean he is good for this team.

[Rego247]

3-11 now.

This was supposed to be the year of "acceleration" according to BC.

Looks like we're accelerating right off a cliff.

ya i assumed he had only been watching this year when i read his response too
