Pau Gasol
18 June 2009
layers. Yeah, I know "its not fair", but I dont care. Its' fun. I think Pau Gasol is like Kevin Mchale in so many ways, it's crazy. First of all, the physical similarities are there. They're both tall, thin, white power forwards with long arms and a wide variety of post moves, left or right handed. Gasol can play center, but he prefers playing power forward. They're career stats mirror each other too. Here are Kevin McHale's per game career stats: 17.9 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.7 blocks, 55 fg%, 79.8 ft%, 7.0 fg made. Now look how similar

rn conference has been busy for weeks now. Teams saw what the Lakers did when they traded for Pau Gasol and felt that they had to try and one up the Lakers. The Phoenix Suns went out and took a huge chance by trading for Shaquille O’Neal and the Mavericks traded away half their team to acquire Jason Kidd. With the trading deadline this week I would not be surprised if western conference teams are not done playing deal or no deal. With the number one seed and the number nine seed being separated by a mere four and a half games, every thing is going to be magnified for the next two months. Every single game is going to matter and a three game losing streak, for anyone, could have that team on the verge of missing the playoffs. After months of boring basketball the west is here to save us.
