Marc Gasol

Bomb. Dropped. Pau Gasol, who will become an unrestricted free agent after this season, is in an awkward situation with the Los Angeles Lakers. He has been for quite some time. The Lakers have already tried trading him once, in a deal that would have landed them Chris Paul in 2011. There’s also the chance [...]

Zach Randolph would like to stay with the Memphis Grizzlies for a long, long time. Next summer, Z-Bo has a player option worth nearly $17 million he can pick up.

This is starting to get weird. And quite frankly, a little embarrassing. The New York Knicks are title contenders. That’s what they’re selling us on, anyway. Carmelo Anthony, Tyson Chandler, J.R. Smith, Iman Shumpert, Andrea Bargnani—they’re supposed to be the core of a championship hopeful. Yet talk keeps shifting to the future, like the Knicks [...]

Well, that didn’t last very long. According to Comcast’s Ric Bucher, Mike D’Antoni and the Los Angeles Lakers may move Pau Gasol back to the bench.

Visions of a championship are going to prove fleeting for the Memphis Grizzlies. It may not be this season, it may not even be over the summer, but the Grizzlies are going to be disbanded. Under the weight of the not-so-new CBA, Memphis is going to get taxed up the you know what if it [...]

From hereon out, every game Rudy Gay plays with the Memphis Grizzlies could be his last. We’ve talked about it since the Grizzlies went on that impressive playoff run in 2011 without him, but now, it’s never seemed more real. With a boatload of money committed to Mike Conley, Marc Gasol, Zach Randolph and Gay [...]

The Memphis Grizzlies are good. Like really good. Like torch the Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder good.
