From the Memphis Grizzlies message board, posted by a Spanish poster.
Quote:
My comments are this is typical Marca BS.
I have heard the entire interview and Gasol hasn't said he is thinking of demading a trade or, like Marca's headline says, leaving the Grizzlies. He isn't stupid and he knows he can't choose where to play or when to be traded, but Marca's journalists haven't a clue about basketball and NBA in particular and they think things in NBA are like in Europe.
What Pau has said is the same he said 2 or 3 years ago: "I want to play in a contender team, and I am trying to make the Grizzlies that team, but things are difficult and if it doesn't improve (the team chances of winning it all) in the future I would consider a move, I am very grateful to the Grizzlies but everybody wants to play for a championship team bla bla bla".
It's nothing new, but Marca likes to make up headlines to attrack people's attention. This isn't new either.

And another, responding to a poster comparing Marca with Sam Smith:

At least Sam Smith knows what's the cap room, the NBA Draft and these things. Marca's journalists don't.

Of course, there's no use in troubling people with facts. So I guess I'll sit back and enjoy seeing no less than five BBB forums overreact to an unknown source to most of them with not a lot of credibility. Here's to the imminent Gasol trade proposals.
