    So Bynum and Gasol were the most important Lakers?

    Lakers went 30-16 before Pau...that's a 54 win pace...or what Miami won this last year.

    They went 27-9 after Pau...that's a 62 win pace...or what San Antonio won this last year.

    Pau essentially added 8 wins, taking a great team to a championship contending team...so pretty much what an All-Star PF should do..

    He was a good pick up, but be real, the Lakers were the best in the West before they got him.

    Pau in 09 was better than Dwight, Duncan, Dirk & Yao?

    All those guys made all nba over him, no way was he better than Dirk, Duncan or 09 Dwight.

    Pau isn't taking that Orlando team to a finals, let alone win a playoff game as the best player on a team.

    Love Pau, great player, but he wasn't better than those guys.

    Not really. The Lakers were first place in the west before the Pau trade.
