Pau Gasol/Pau Gasol/16 Position: Power Forward/Center Height: 2. 13m/7ft Weight: 1 18kg (260lbs) Birthday: 1980-07-06 Birthplace. 0-February 2008) Memphis Grizzlies has been worth about 57 million dollars since February 2008, and the season ended on 20 13- 14. Family situation: father: August, mother: Marisa, brothers: Andrea and Mark. Sports experience: 200 1 Joined, Grizzly Bear Core, 16, February 2008 1 US time. [Edit this paragraph] The growth track of the grizzly bear's career: When the crisp short hair grows bulging gradually, when the white and delicate face is covered by a beard, Pau Gasol, an elegant big boy next door who is liked by many fans, finally does not stick to the cold Memphis. From Grizzlies to Los Angeles Lakers, Gasol may lose only the name of Bear King, and the MVP of the World Championships may get the most brilliant moment of his career. There are many forces in the western region. "Kobe+"Gasol was born in Catalonia, Spain, and began to contact basketball at the age of 7. In the 2006 World Men's Basketball Championship, under the leadership of Pau Gasol, Spain eliminated Serbia and Montenegro, Lithuania, Argentina and Greece and won the first championship in the history of the Spanish men's basketball team. Even Gasol, who was injured and missed the last game, won the most important honor of his career, the first MVP of the World Championships. Pau Gasol is a 200 1 rookie. He was selected by the Atlanta Hawks in the third round in the summer draft of 200 1, but in the flower show of July 19, Gasol was replaced by another rotten team-Memphis Grizzlies, who had just moved back to Memphis from Vancouver. At this time, Gasol had to make an end with his parent team, Barcelona, who didn't want to let him go. In order to set foot on his dream NBA field, Gasol paid a penalty of $654.38+$6500, and in this way, Gasol started his NBA career in the gloomy city of Memphis. In his first season with the Grizzlies, Gasol quickly became the team leader. He has the soft touch of a European player, but at the same time he likes hand-to-hand combat with opponents at the basket more than any European player. With his flexible pace and excellent basketball IQ, he quickly attracted people's attention from Stoke Yavich, kukoc, Nowitzki and others. It was in his rookie season that he averaged 17.6 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2. 1 block shots, and his shooting percentage was as high as 5 1.8%, even surpassing Yao Ming. In Gasol's rookie data, among them, the shooting percentage ranks fourth in the league, the number of blocked shots ranks sixth, and 35 pairs also rank tenth. Among the rookie of the year, Gasol ranked first in scoring and shooting percentage, eighth in assists and fifteenth in steals. And Gasol was the only rookie who played all 82 games, including 79 starts. This data is enough to make the hawks regret their stupid decision. After the rookie season, Gasol won 1 17 votes out of a total of 126 votes, and was unanimously elected as the best rookie of 200 1-02. In the 2003-04 season, in the third year of joining the Grizzlies, Gasol finally led the Grizzlies to break out. It took this team eight years to win 150 games. With Gasol's rapid maturity, he also showed unprecedented vitality and enterprising spirit. Miraculously achieved the highest single-season 50 wins since 1995 was founded, and entered the playoffs for the first time as the sixth in the West, becoming a formidable team in the West. However, the western regions with numerous forces are not a place that can be easily revolutionized. Strong teams like Mavericks, Spurs, Suns and Lakers will never allow anyone to despise them. After meeting the Spurs in the playoffs, Memphis was shaved in four games, and the performance of averaging 18.5 points and 5 rebounds per game was far from Duncan's performance of 24.3 points 10 rebounds. But who can say more to this young man who has just entered the league for the third year? In the following two seasons, 2004-05 and 2005-06, Gasol made continuous progress, and the Grizzlies maintained the stability that a strong team must have and successfully reached the playoffs for two consecutive years. However, missing the first round of the playoffs is like a nightmare for Gasol. Gasol began to taste loneliness like Garnett the Wolf King. There are many teammates around him, and none of them can help him out of the first round bottleneck. The Lakers sent power forward Kwame Brown, guard Yaya Varis Clayton, newly signed guard Aaron McKee and two first-round draft picks in 2008 and 20 10. In addition to Gasol, the Lakers will get a second-round draft pick on 20 10. Wearing the Lakers jersey "is a big deal for the team." Kobe made no secret of his excitement. "The team has the depth of the bench, and now it has a height. There are also many players in our lineup who can play multiple positions. Now is the time to make great strides. " In the summer of 2008, due to the inaction of general manager Kupchak, Kobe once asked to leave the team. Now, the library manager has finally prepared a decent toy for Kobe. No wonder Peter Pan is so excited. The 30-year-old Gasol struggled in the NBA for 10 seasons, averaging 18.9 points, 8.8 rebounds 1.44 blocks in 2007-2008. In the 2007-2008 season, Gasol scored more points and rebounds than his career average. Gasol's arrival may threaten Odom's position, but Odom still welcomes him. "There is no doubt that our basket will be better protected, and I can't wait to see the effect of the combination." Compared with coach Jackson, he is obviously much calmer. "We hope he can play next Monday. Of course, I don't know if he can do it. He will go to Los Angeles tomorrow and then have a medical examination. " For Gasol, although his technical statistics have reached the All-Star level in the Grizzlies for several years, and he has also led Spain in the international arena, he has never led the Grizzlies to any achievements, and there is no future in staying in the Grizzlies. After arriving in the Lakers, his joint efforts with Kobe Bryant will become a terrible duo in the league, and the dream of the championship may come true. In the second season of his transfer to the Lakers, on June 6, 2009, at 438+04, in Orlando, Pau Gasol won his first championship ring on the podium of the Lakers. At this moment, Gasol has reached the peak of his career, which took him eight years. In the third season of his transfer to the Lakers, in June 10, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Pau Gasol won the second championship ring of his career on the podium of the Lakers. [Edit this paragraph] Technical features Pau Gasol was selected by Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of 200/KLOC-0, ranking third. Gasol is a typical European insider. He shoots accurately, walks steadily under the basket and rebounds strongly. The main source of its score is the jump shot at the left and right corners of the penalty area and the small hook at the singles basket. Gasol's free throws are average, and sometimes his strength is at a disadvantage in the inside confrontation. Defensively, Gasol is an expert in blocking shots and protecting rebounds well, but his lack of strength makes him suffer from one-on-one single defense inside. In addition, injury is also one of the factors that prevent Gasol from becoming a first-team star in the league. In the 2006-07 season, he only played 59 regular-season games. Gasol can play center and power forward. Compared with big players, his skills are more delicate and comprehensive. But criticized for being too weak inside. Since the 2005-2006 season, the insiders are more inclined to break through, making great progress in assists, and leading the team to the fifth place in the West and entering the playoffs. Dirk nowitzki and he are both famous European basketball players.
