NBA: Kobe Bryant Takes Funny Shot at Pau Gasol as He Announces He Won’t Play in 2016 Olympics

Sorry fans, you will not see Kobe in the 2016 Olympics.  Yesterday Kobe shot down Tom Thibodeau’s plea for him to play in the Olympics, but said he would travel to Rio to watch & cheer on teammate Pau Gasol (who plays international ball for Spain).  Check out how he said it though — Kobe’s always got jokes…


NBA: Pau Gasol Reacts To Rumors About Trade

As the Gasol-Bynum trade talks continue, reporters caught up with Gasol to see how he feels about it.  Check out what he had to say…


NBA: Report, Lakers Trying To Trade Pau Gasol To Cleveland For Andrew Bynum?

Didn’t the Lakers learn their lesson the first time they had Bynum? Well actually yes they did because this trade won’t go down the way you think. The Cavs have been after Gasol for over a year and the Lakers know it, and since things are not going so well between Gasol and coach Mike D’antoni’s system, this could be an opportunity for the Lakers to get some value for him. However if this trade goes through, the Lakers have no plans of keeping Bynum. They would waive him and by doing so save about $20 million dollars, which would allow them to be players in the free agent market the next couple years. After all is said and done, I am sure a team who needs help at the center position would take a chance on Bynum, even though reports now say the real reason the Cavs suspended him was because he had sex with an assistant coaches wife, which obviously caused extreme tension. The trade would have to happen before January 7th. Hit the jump.


NBA: Lakers Shopping Pau Gasol?

Once again Lakers forward Pau Gasol and Lakers coach Mike D’Antoni aren’t getting along.  The two have stepped it up a notch publicly criticizing each other.  While Gasol’s production continues to tumble and the Lakers facing rebuilding mode, it’s no secret they’re considering trading him.


NBA: Pau Gasol & Lakers Coach Mike D’antoni Throw Jabs At Each Other In The Media

Pau Gasol is whining once again. Just like the image for this story, he is pointing to his coach for the reason he is struggling this year. Gasol has done this before. When things are not going great for him he blames the coach. Is the coach the reason you are only shooting 41% from the field? I don’t think so. Hit the jump to see what coach and player said about each other.
