Pau Gasol: "I'm Not Done"

Pau Gasol is in the best shape of his life.

"I'm still running, still working out. I'm still a big time player. I hope people don't get scared off because of my age."

Pau averaged 14.5 points and 7.4 rebounds per game last year in only 28 minutes per game. He shot 51% from the floor. Those numbers are comparable to that of Paul Millsap and Chris Bosh. His numbers translate to roughly 18/9 per 36.

"I can play 36 minutes a game. I was limited last year because we had a great bench. We had a great team in Miami so Coach could afford to rest me more, but I can still play big minutes," said Pau.

Pau is one of the best big men left in FA. No other big men boast his combination of scoring (3rd highest SCR rating) and rebounding (6th highest DRB rating).

He's declined quite a bit in the last two years, but is still a good big and pickup IMO. I would've played him a bit more but it seems his EN isn't too high, and I don't like overworking my guys.

Come back to MIA and get that fifth ring Pau!

Oh..

Maybe Pau wants to come back to where his career really took off.

I wouldn't mind having Pau on the Mavs at all. Still a bit of juice left in the tank and he'll always be a scoring threat.

I think David West can also be a great pickup. Same-rated scorer with some similar ratings all-around. I feel like there'll be low interest in oldies overall though.

Another great big for a contender.

great veteran PF/C that is still a solid starter. He can make a huge contribution to any team but will also cost a lot

At first glance I read "Pau Gasol: I'm not Duncan." Weird. I wonder if he gets more then the MLE, and if anyone offers him 3 years.
