Uh, yes. Blake of a far better player than Pau Gasol as seen when they play each other.

I hate when people who do not even bother watching basketball start speaking about it.

This isn't 2009. Blake Griffin's numbers were all very real as were his highlight dunks. So is his age. Pau Gasol is being offered to every team in trade. Blake Griffin was a dead lock to get max dollars form the cheapest owner in the NBA.

So, please stop with the silliness.

Once again actually get your facts straight before you start talking non sense. Pau Gasol is NOT on the trading block. Again Griffin has nice numbers, but he's overrated. Can't defend to save his life, can't shoot to save his life, has no low post games, and relies way too much on his athleticism. Pau Gasol is a much better player than Blake Griffin.

gasol was ranked 12th at PF in PER, griffin was 2nd. he scores more and rebounds more than gasol, he shoots a higher percentage than gasol, he is at 1.5 blocks and steals per game whereas gasol is at 2.0.

griffin doesnt need plays ran for him to score; he gets offense off of rebounds and put backs. his shooting percentage is

gasol is a better defender than griffin. but he is also softer and gets pushed around including by griffin himself.

gasol may not be on the trade block this second (tho he most certainly is if the dwight howard trade is really discussed with LA) but has been numerous times. try google searching before posting fantasy stuff.

his large contract is a boat anchor no team really wants.
