    Your boy pulled through today...Still dont know why D'antoni can figure out how to use him...Just because he's a tall white European doesn't mean he should be shooting 3's all day

    Long term, it will not work, sadly. They need to find a way to flip him for a Ryan Anderson, or even Josh Smith.

    For the Antoni offense to be at its best, SPACING is key. As good as Gasol is, his skill set does not effectively allow him to provide that spacing. Which in turn affects EVERYONE in the offense (well, maybe not Kobe, That mfer will shoot from Mars if he had the chance).

    Pau is a great player, so there is a chance that they could find a way to "Make it work", but it will come at the detriment of the overall offense, Especially Howard.

    As the President of the Pau Gasol fan club, it really pains me to type all that.

    He needs to be more clutch with his shots.

    Pau still always finds a reason to ? me of though(what am i talking about.. anyone care to guess).. but him being the middle man so to speak is a great role for him.. I just need that midrange to come back to form.. from the years prior

    What? Knicks are good this year and they're a "name brand" team.

    Finally the Lakers beat a team that could easily go deep into the Play Offs

    I cringe if that ? take more than 3 dribbles. he has some of the worst handles in the league. but other than that he has been playing really well and has found his role which I believe has been better than the previous years.

    Refs ? us over by giving Howard that flagrant 2. It was all downhill after that (Meeks couldn't hit ? , Metta was taking dumb shots, Pau was doing Pau etc.) which hints at the fact that the Lakers need a better supporting cast (if they want to win it all). Right now it seems like If 1 player goes down Lakers shift from a contender to a 7th seed.

    ...Lakers really need to look at trading no defense having Jamison and Duhon etc. for a solid (bench) player. For some reason other teams see value in those players and they do nothing but hurt the Lakers. ? , I don't know why they haven't given Delonte a tryout yet. He's not old, and he plays both ends of the floor.

    Yea i seen the Shawn Bradley one before.... Smh fish will be back.

    Dwight is just not 100 right now.. but there is no excuse for him to be getting those silly fouls when simple positioning would be a deterrent
