Lakers acquire PAU GASOL!

[Eric Draven]

Wow blockbuster trade for them, can't wait to see him play for them, and they'll be even more of a contender when Bynum comes back!

he was literally given away to the lakers, should be a good starting line up and a team to keep an eye now. Kobe popped in 46 tonight against the raptors aswell, so he is slowly getting on fire

Only Kobe could drop 46 and be "slowly" coming around and/or catching fire.


Might be time to watch my Lakeshow again when BIG Andrew comes back.

I think its a great pickup. They gave away alot with the DP's but Gasol is a solid player he should really add to the Lakers.

Gasol, combined with Bynum gives the Lakers some real dominance in the front court.

The picks are both first rounders, I believe 2008 and 2010? Ironically I think Pau brother Marc was involved in the deal.

I've never liked Gasol much, he seems really stuck up as a player. But he is still 1000 times better than Kwame Brown.

Great pick up for the Lakers will be interesting to see them play and espically when Bynum is back
