dwaechte · 06-11-09, 10:50 PM

I disagree. Gasol is beautiful to watch, he's always in the right place.

jjgold · 06-11-09, 10:51 PM

He is a pussy and way too soft
Howard is 200x times the player he is

paco · 06-11-09, 11:12 PM

Gasol is the MAN!!!

Nicky Santoro · 06-11-09, 11:16 PM

jj, you should make threads like this more often.. since you posted abotu how shit gasol is and i then posted how shit fisher is, they both had their best few minutes, right after, esp fisher, and lakers win.. wow..

this thread was good luck for me..

jjgold · 06-11-09, 11:18 PM

Good call Nicky

jj i love how u just flip things . Thas y ur the man! Nothing fazes u

Nicky Santoro · 06-11-09, 11:23 PM

jj was only doing this to help my bet.. jj is the biggest Pau Gasol fan.. he's always backed him.. just do a search in last years playoffs.. all he ever said was how Gasol is great and is key to lakers success..

jj knows basketball like no one here. he really knows his hoops, NO JOKE.

Tsoprano · 06-11-09, 11:24 PM

Another sharp thread, JJ.

Gasol is 200x better on offense than Howard.

max_asdf · 06-11-09, 11:36 PM

gasol sucks, euro trash
soft crap,, d12 owned him

jjgold · 06-12-09, 05:29 AM

I will admit Gasol played very tough and physical late in game

Give him credit

FreeFall · 06-12-09, 12:57 PM

I disagree gasol is the much underutilized laker player. I kobe played team ball they would thrive on him, look at his stats.

BobHarvey · 06-12-09, 01:21 PM

Anyone is soft compared to Howard. He's a beast. Gasol is still one of the best in the league. Love the Spaniard.!

Fisher? He's off the charts clutch.

TheIntegrityKid · 06-12-09, 01:23 PM

Altho I was against LA, it was good to see Gasol show some passion...

Now if Gasol could somehow help LA lose 3 straight, then I'd love him...

is that why D12 cant get his usual field goals.

pau is sacrificing his body. good for him to appreciate the game and show his hunger.

all of gasol stats has improved from last finals.

I half expect Pietrus to get a suspension but I haven't seen anything about it ...yet.

His shove was every bit as bad as Scola slamming his face into Fisher's elbow.

If he gets a suspension, I don't think the series goes back to LA for the simple fact that Courtney Lee although a good young defender is NOT going to be able to contain Kobe all night long. Pietrus is a much better match for Kobe, then again he got away with some really physical play over the Black Mamba.

Well if Pietrus is suspended, Kobe and his elbow should be suspended too

BobHarvey · 06-12-09, 02:02 PM

No way Kobe gets suspended. It's just a fact of life. Same with Howard. The league's not going to suspend either of the big stars this late into the finals.

jjgold · 06-12-09, 04:56 PM

Pietrus should get suspended, he could of broke his back.

I agree it was a suspendable offense, but so was Kobe's elbow. He has been warned about that in the past, yet continues to throw 'em

Can they suspend someone when a foul was not even called on the play in question? I know they're capable of upgrading fouls to flagrant and issuing suspensions, but I think there would have had to been some official recognition of the play as a foul to warrant further post-game discipline.

They can but I cannot recall a time that it has happened..

There may not have been official recognition, but judging by the outcome of the play, there was sure official non-recognition at play

lakerboy · 06-12-09, 05:13 PM

Gasol should get the finals MVP. He is in Howards head big time and he has played great defense and i believe he is the best shooter in this series.

Are you HIGH. He is one of the best big men in the league. Just because Howard owes the paint does not take away from is skills. He is the heart an soul of the Lakers. Kobe|Gasol Go to my rundown and learn something about Bball.

PS. But yes Howard and Turk have shut him down
