PAU GASOL (COMMENT 2)

Pau Gasol was born on 6th July 1980 in Barcelona, Spain. He started to play basketball when he was at school. In 1997, at the age of 16, he enter FC Barcelona Basketball. Although in the past some American universities offered him to study there with a scholarship, it was in 2001 when he moved to the United States to play in the team Memphis Grizzlies.

Also, he played at Angeles Lakers, where he met his good friend Kobe Bryant, who once said “Pau Gasol is incredible”, Chicago Bulls, San Antonio Spurs, Milwaukee Bucks, and Portland Trail Blazers. He was the second Spanish player at the NBA. This year, he returned to Spain playing one more time with the FC Barcelona Basketball.

After 24 years playing basketball, One World Cup (2006), two NBA rings, three Eurobasket (2009, 2011, and 2015), three ACB leagues (1999, 2001, 2021), and a Cup’s King (2001) he has decided to retire from the basketball this October.

Personally, searching for information about Pau Gasol I have seen what a splendid player he has been, apart from how he helps society, and I can’t understand why the NBA hasn't included him at the list top-75 best NBA’s players in history. He must be in it.
