What do you think Gasol brought to the Lakers? To me he is an unselfish player. And he loves to play second fiddle to Kobe. With him on the floor Lakers always has an offensive option other than Kobe. And he does block, rebound and pass well. So he is doing what Garnett is doing for Celtics. I think he is the unsung hero in the Laker's 2009 NBA title. Look at the players he defended; Howard, Nene . All of them are big players and are good scorers. I strongly believe he can be a scoring machine if he is given the ball.
