Pau Gasol and Marc Gasol are two of the best sibling players in the history of the league. Pau Gasol is known as the counterpart of Kobe Bryant on the famous Los Angeles Lakers team that won back to back titles in 2009 and 2010. Gasol used his skill to destroy opposing defenders, giving Bryant some much-needed help. Pau's little brother, Marc, is probably the more skilled of the two, but he hasn't had much success over the course of his career.
Marc Gasol is currently a member of the Memphis Grizzlies and is their best player. Though, the Grizzlies are having a terrible season this year. Ever since Mike Conley went down with a season-ending heel injury, the Grizzlies have suffered on the court.
Apparently, Marc Gasol hasn't been happy with his team's losing, and his older brother Pau had a talk with him. According to Ronald Tiller of the Commercial Appeal, Pau Gasol told his reporters that his brother has a right to be upset.
“Of course, he’s upset. He should be upset,” Pau, a forward with the San Antonio Spurs, said on the eve of their game Monday night at AT&T Center. “Any player who competes and cares would be upset. That’s a good sign from a player who cares and is a leader. He’s putting his body on the line and not quitting.”
Pau Gasol has a point. He got the chance to play with Bryant, and he has felt the wrath of the Black Mamba when the Lakers lost in previous years. The question remains if Marc Gasol's frustration will lead to a trade down the road.
