memphis grizzlies

memphis grizzlies
Last week during a radio interview I was asked which Gasol brother has proved more valuable in these playoffs. It was a “tell-us-what-we-all-see” inquiry, but I didn’t mind accentuating the truth that’s unfolded over the first two playoff rounds. The Lakers’ Pau Gasol is an All-NBA talent with two championship rings he can taunt younger brother Marc with when they’re traveling together in the off-season. But if you ask the crowd at FedExForum Monday night to raise a hand if they’d reverse the 2008 trade that sent Pau from Memphis to Los Angeles for Marc, you’d see 18,119 people with their arms crossed. The numbers don’t lie: Pau averaged 13.4 points and 7.8 rebounds for L.A. while Marc has averaged 14.9 and 11.6 for the Grizzlies. And only one of the brothers is still playing.
