MikeCheck: Boosted by Memphis and 'Core Four' brothers, Gasol relishes first taste of NBA Finals

MEMPHIS – On the verge of making the first NBA Finals appearance of his 11-year NBA career up in Toronto, Marc Gasol wanted to make at least two things very clear about his journey.

First, the 34-year-old center wouldn’t change one step he’s taken on the path that got him there. And secondly, he’s got plenty of room along this Finals ride for folks in Memphis who still support him as well as those in Toronto he’s hoping to help lift to the NBA championship.

“I still run into a lot of people from Memphis, all around the NBA,” Gasol told Grind City Media.
