Gilbert Arenas and other questions

Postby conkeso on Thu Nov 14, 2002 3:40 pm

Not much opportunities to see him on Tv here in Spain :? (In fact like all the worst teams unless Gasol's Grizzlies :oops: ) , but his current season numbers are pretty good. To make an idea, whom would you compare of the top players? Grant Hill maybe?

Other question, how do you estimate there in america ROTY Pau Gasol? a future all star? not much talk about him as he plays on the worst team i suppose :roll:

Gilbert Arenas is a shooting-point guard. His game has nothing really in common with Grant Hill. Arenas was originally a shooting guard but switched to the point when the Warriors realised they didn't have one. He can shoot, defend pretty well and share the ball around.
There is a lot of hype surrounding Gasol, and considering he plays on a shit team he gets some pretty good exposure. He is definately one of the best foreign players in the league. If he didn'y play in the west he could probably make the allstar team.

Gilbert is in with a real shot at being M.I.P. If he keeps playing the way he is, he'll definitely poll really well.

I guess I can't answer your Gasol question because I'm not in America.

There was a Warriors game on ESPN the first week of the season, against the Sonics...ESPN actually shows teams that aren't large market....

Gilbert Arenas is a Kidd/Francis mix...

Pau Gasol has really struggled those past 2 weeks...
