Farewell Pau

Sad to see one of my favorite Lakers leave. Last season was not only a nightmare for the team but for Pau. With horrible coaching and injuries Pau's season wasn't reflective of his abilities.

From the addition  of Dwight Howard to his free agency he was thoroughly disrespected and misused as a player.  Constant trade rumors  and diminished playing time surely played a part in messing with the mental aspects of his game.

As he embarks on to Chicago it will  be proven  Pau will be a free agent steal of the summer. 

Pau will rank as one of my favorite Lakers but favorite players. 

Wish him well. 

Trade Pau?

I wouldn't trade Pau for Kevin Love and the #2 pick. His youth isn't reason enough to hedge the next 3 years. Although Pau got his nuts handed to him in the playoffs. I'll take a gamble on a recharged Pau over an undersized Kevin Love. And the #2 pick in one of the weakest drafts is a no deal for me. So peep out the manuscript. 2 rings over a guy who plays on a last place team. He couldn't grab numbers like that in LA. No way! Because Kobe,Andrew and Lamar gotta get there touches too. Too trade a big chip like Pau it better net the Lakers a CP3 or Dwight Howard level player. Peace.
