Gasol claims Raptors have grudge against Garbajosa - NBA - Yahoo! Sports
“It’s surprising and unexpected, (Garbajosa’s) situation,” the Memphis Grizzlies forward wrote in his weekly column in Spanish newspaper Marca.

“There’s something strange going on because Jorge says that he feels fine. I think that for all the things he did in the summer and his desire to play in the national team at the EuroBasket, the Raptors have a bit of a grudge.”

Garbajosa was a vital part of Toronto’s Atlantic Division-winning team last season, but missed the playoffs after suffering a gruesome ankle injury.

The Raptors did not want him to play at the EuroBasket as he continued his rehabilitation, but with the tournament in his native Spain and the national side having won gold at the FIBA World Championship the year before, Garbajosa persisted and eventually acquired a special insurance policy that covered the injury.
