Was Pau Gasol even a top 15 player in 2009 and 2010?

it shut down because Lakers finally got an all star to pair with Kobe after playing with scrubs for 3 seasons :dwillhuh:

what is this post suppose to prove anyways? that because the sever shut down for an all star player, that means he was a top 15 player?



right. it probably shut down for the same reason Pop cried like a bytch.....Kobe was SO GOOD everyone knew he just needed *somebody*......they knew he didn't necessarily need a top 10 teammate or top 3-5 at the PF position.

Lakers were rolling prior to the Bynum injury, dude was on his all star shyt and then Ariza got hurt. But we’re the ones rewriting history? Like Pau wasn’t getting his ass beat by KG and Leon Powe in the Finals?

Pau really averaged 14 ppg in the Finals. He was so shook. Deadass, I still have resentment towards him for that series and the Mavs series too. I was done with him in 11.

Weird how nikkas like to bring up how the triangle limited Kobe’s stats but use those same numbers to diminish Pau’s importance to that game.

Weird how the weak East lets you build up stats and the strong west is much harder to put up numbers when dudes comparing Pau and Bosh.

nikkas in here saying David Lee was better than Pau Gasol

Didnt say Lee was better than pau.....but in 2010 it was comparable statistically on offense. Who says Kobe and PJ could'nt have made David Lee work next to LO, Bynum, Arest...:yeshrug:

David Lee 2009-2010: 20 ppg, 12 rpg, 3 apg, 1spg, 54% shooting, 81 games, Eastern Conf All Star

Pau Gasol 2009-2010: 18ppg, 11 rpg, 3 apg, 1.5 bpg, 53% shooting, 65 games, West Conf All Star

Pau's offense numbers were better with Kobe and the triangle
