    Default Since Marc came back from injury

    last january

    Memphis have won 70% of their games, more games than anyone else. Including Spurs

    Memphis is also currenlty in top rankings in fg and 3fg% despite being a team of awful shooters

    hopefuly these two pieces of information help box score player fans come to peace with the fact that smart intangibles and smart team basketball > personal stat sheet.

    Marc Gasol in the Lakers would make them win games.

    Definitely a top 3 center alongside Dwight & Noah.

    Noah has not even been the best C on his own team this year. Noah is a great player but Nene pretty much slayed any hype he had imo as a Top 3 C.

    Marc Gasol is a freak, dude just has it all love watching him and the rest of that Memphis team (Courtney Lee's 3 point shooting ).

    He's getting amazing game experience before he becomes a Knick this summer.

    Regular season from Gasol coming back in January until now they are 45-15 = 75%

    Including the 7 playoff games they're 48-19 = 71.6%

    '14 season: 33-13 +163 points over opponents = +3.5 ppg
    '14 playoffs: 3-4 -38 points = -5.4 ppg
    '14 overall: 36-17 +125 = +2.3 ppg

    '15 season: 12-2 +106 = +7.6 ppg


    Small sample size, but it shows how much better their offense could be this year. They're winning games by an average of 5.3 ppg more than the 2.3 last year.

    Since than Noah ain't been the same and I know Nene is a slayer , I have watched 90% of the Bulls games and Noah has not been good at either end in like 50% of them.

    Gasol totally embarrassed DJ last night. Gasol and that whole Memphis team flies under the radar. They are nasty and can do some damage in the post season this year for sure.

    He is so, so underrated. Besides Boogie and maybe Al Jefferson, I think he might be the best center in the League.

    His game has no major weaknesses and he just keeps getting better and better. The bench and depth of the team has gradually improved as well.

    I don't really feel like Cousins is underrated at all anymore. Everyone always talks him up and says he's underrated but I think everyone knows he's a badass now. Jefferson is definitely underrated but his D is horrible and he could be in better shape. He's great on the block though. The thing about Gasol is that he's much fitter this year and it's like he's a completely different player. While he'll never be mistaken as being quick, he is so much quicker this year. He put the ball on the floor last night and dove to the cup and banged it and it was actually a good move. I was shocked. I would say that he is playing at a level above where he was previously. Their frontcourt is pretty badass. As a basketball fan it's nice to see historically shitty (recent history at least) like Sacto and Memphis and Charlotte playing well. I honestly am not as concerned about this player or that player or this team or that team I just want to see a good game and see good basketball.
