Still trying to spin this narrative huh? That trade got the Lakers a hall of famer who helped Kobe get 2 more rings.

It will always be remembered as an extremely lopsided trade:

Two types of people remember it as a lopsided trade

1. stupid sports fans
2. Short sighted people

No rational fan views that trade as a loss for memphis

Memphis wasnt winning so they decided to invest in the future

The pau trade landed them pieces that took them further than they ever got with pau

Only in yalls warped world was this trade a loss for memphis

@holidayinn21 these guys still dont get it :russ:

IDGAF what Memphis has done with Marc, Cap and everything else in that trade. 2 rings is much more valuable.

Thats a very stupid assumption on your part, but i wouldnt expect anything less from someone who thinks pau gasol > marc gasol + zach randolph

Kobe + marc gasol + odom + bynum + room to add a max player since they werent paying pau couldnt win a ring? :mjlol: you literally have no idea what youre talking about

Id love to go back and forth with you but i dont have time to go back and forth with adults who dont understand basic concepts like "delayed gratification"

This is my last reply to you on this subject. Have a good evening breh.

I see logic isnt your strong point :mjlol:

Was Memphis gonna win rings if they kept pau?

No?

Then gtfoh with that silly sh*t

You judge a trade by if it makes YOUR team better

Memphis improved by trading pau
Lets keep this 100 marc gasol was an unknown and memphis put a better team marc than pau. The lakers wons that trade. Memphis hasnt won a conference finals game ever

let's keep it 100. you don't know what the f*ck you're talking about.

you talking about "memphis hasnt won a conference finals game ever". well memphis never even won a PLAYOFF game with pau. so what's your point? :mjlol:

How The Memphis Grizzlies Are Still Winning The Pau Gasol Trade

let's leave opinion out of this and just look at plain FACTS

memphis record Before the Trade

2006-2007 - 22-60 with pau
2007-2008 - 22-60 with pau (13-33) when he left

After the trade

2008 - 2009 - 24-58
2009-2010 - 40-42
2010-2011 - 46-36
2011-2012 - 41-25
2012-2013 - 56-26


no disrespect, but you would have to be pretty dense to look at this info and say that memphis "lost". memphis got better, that's the point of a trade. what the lakers accomplished is irrelevant. "what you eat don't make me sh*t". lakers could have done better long term by keeping marc and the cap space, but thats another topic.

this is my last reply to you because it doesnt make sense to debate something that isn't debateable. memphis got marc gasol and zach randolph from pau.

those are the facts breh.

We're talking to brick walls chief. 8 years later, and these simple nikkas still don't know how a trade works.

@Jplaya2023 @Liquid

Please tell us these trades that were supposedly better than the one Memphis made.

memphis record improved immediately but somehow they lost :mjlol:

There's no way these dudes aren't trump supporters. No other group of people can look facts in the fact and ignore them like this.

A team in rebuild gets over $20 Million in cap space, young players, and draft picks in return, but it's a loss because of what the other team did?:what:

Even Popovich fell the fukk back after seeing what Memphis back.

The fukk is wrong with ya nikkas?:what:
