Gasol ranked 11th in the @NBA in net rating last season, and 3rd in defensive rating (min. 15 mpg) for Toronto.

A 2-time All-NBA player and 3-time All-Star, Gasol has made 80 of 200 3’s his last 2 seasons, good for 40% from the C position.

He can definitely get back to the level he had with the Raptors before the pandemic.

I didn’t watch too much Raptors in the bubble, but from what I saw Gasol looked a little out of shape compared to what he looked like in the regular season.

Hollinger thinks this is a Tim Duncan deal. Sign for 2 years, retire after 1.

Kobe died for this.

no but really i think Kobe's death healed the wounds between the Gasol family and the Lakers. There was a bit of bad blood after we tried to trade him.

I am so happy that Marc is on the team. I love the pick up. Pau better get his damn Jersey retired.

Him looking thin is good to hear. He looked a little bit chunky in the bubble.

Glad to see Marc Gasol getting the credit he earned from last season, even if the shot didn't drop for him like it should have.

Hi everyone!

Marc Gasol was on Ibai's Twitch channel (channel in Spanish, a few days ago he was named the best streamer in the world 2020). It was a very funny conversation because Ibai is a super charismatic streamer, but in summary I can tell you that he has chosen the number 14 to play for the Lakers and that although several teams were calling him, he wanted to think about his options calmly, but in the end It was an easy choice because of the players he has and the options to win the title, which is the most important thing for him.

Ibai's channel: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/814332232 MIN: 21

Greetings!

It was an interesting interview. He also praised the defensive mindset of the team as well as how his style of play can help LeBron and AD in the offensive side.

Having another playmaker for LBJ in the starting lineup...whoa. Especially when it's likely we start KCP/Wes. Even if we start Dennis, could see him feasting off cuts too.

Pau might be the kindest, most thoughtful human being on earth. I follow him on twitter and he does nothing but nice things for people.
Need more Pau's on this earth.

I really would love him back.

To be honest, Marc is going to fill the role that I expected Cousins to fill when we first signed him. Passing big man who can shoot and defend certain matchups. His passing will open up a new dimension to our offense.

Honestly think this is my favorite move of the offseason. A defensive front court of AD + Gasol is just plane nasty. Also incredibly to see how we handle such a good passing big man. Gasol playing along side good slashing players like Kuzma, Harrell, and Caruso is exciting.

Dunno if I want him back as a player but I want him back to see his number put up in the rafters.
