During the playoffs there was a lot of drama concerning Kobe Bryant and his harsh criticism of fellow Laker Pau Gasol. Â After the team was once again ousted from the second round of the playoffs, trade rumors started to swirl and they begin with none other than Gasol himself. Â Read more after the jump.
According to the NY Daily News:
The Lakers are committed to moving Pau Gasol — the fall guy for their second-round ouster against the Thunder and previous playoff failures — even if they have to take back less talent. As long as Heisley retains the Grizzlies, Memphis will always have interest. Heisley has always wanted to bring Gasol back, pairing him with his brother, Marc.
If you remember Pau Gasol was almost traded during the season in a failed attempt to get Chris Paul. Â After everything else that has gone down its pretty certain Gasol won’t be wearing a Los Angeles Laker uniform next season but it’s a bit much if the Lakers are willing to take almost anything for him, he’s still a great forward who would be an excellent addition to any team.
