--- Quote from: Antonio on July 25, 2009, 03:22:55 PM ---Duncan is better than Gasol (even tho Pau proved he can be "that" good too, expecially since he's younger and with probably an higher basketball IQ and much room to improve). But what's the point comparing him to Parker, Ginobili or Jefferson? LOL. You guys are hylarious. I said it: if we keep Odom we're even better than last year, so we are the team to beat. Period.
Oh, on a side note..
KOBE > GINOBILI
ARTEST > JEFFERSON
FISHER < PARKER
ODOM > McDYESS
It's really not arguable.

First off, Gasol has proven he can be better then the best power forward of all time? LOL. So PAU= a top 10 player all time in the NBA?? Are you fuckin kidding me?? He had a worse year then Duncan last year and that was with Duncan having a down year with the injuries. And higher basketball IQ?!? LOL!!!! Duncan is arguably the best fundamental basketball player of all time. His basketball IQ along with his skills are what make him one of the best ever. Not his athletisism. I hate to put a ceiling on someone, but cmon man. You know damn well Gasol will NEVER reach that level. Greatness is typically evident from the beginning.
I said from day one you guys were the team to beat. NIK is the one who likes to make outrageous claims (and u know it) about the Lakers being head and shoulders above everyone lol. IF you guys get Odom back, i think you are better then last year. IF you dont, you are worse. We unarguable improved and if we stay healthy should be right with the Lakers all year.
As for your comparisons lol For one, Ginobli is a bench player and > ANYone on LA's bench.
Kobe>>> Mason
Artest/ Jefferson (too close to call) I really have to see how Jefferson adapts. He should be a consistent 17-21 ppg guy.
Fisher<<<Parker
Gasol<Duncan
Bynum<McDyess (McDyess is a proven complimentary big man, but Bynum might surpass McDyess throughout the year
Odom<Ginobli (this is made closer then normal due to Ginobli's injuries. If he's healthy, he's an all-star player if the team started him.)

How so? He's tall, finally gained some muscle, has good footwork, can use either hand, has good range for a big man, rebounds, has a high FG%, and is a good passer. Despite all this he has only been elected to 2 All-Star games and 1 All-NBA Team Third Team.

yeah because Duncan will more then likely wrap it up within a few years. Gasol is younger. But Duncan was still more productive then Gasol last year AND he's the focal point of the team. Gasol benefits from Kobe drawing double teams. Duncan is the guy drawing double teams to set up their offense.
