He's just played soft, they really needed Bynum in this series.

Agreed.What is with Gasol every time getting the ball and doing like 15 fakes and then he just loses it or puts up junk

He is very soft. His jump hook/floater/ little shot game cant go on with good defense.

Pasol is a good player but he's not a franchise player. He is what he is. It's a little unfair to compare him to Kevin Garnett who is one of the greatest NBA players of all time.
I will say this however. The European big men play soft. Darko Milicic, Rasho Nesterovic, Mehmet Okur, Andre Bargnani and so on. They'd all rather shoot jump shots than play in the paint.
The days of drafting them with a top 10 pick are probably over

Is there any Euro that isn't soft? I can't think of one. Maybe, MAYBE Sabonis.

Gasol will be fine when he moves over to the 4 alongside Bynum.

Petrovic may have been one of the toughest players in NBA history regardless of nationality.

Tony Parker
How about Tony Parker. I would argue that he isn't soft. I was going to say Manu Ginobili but he's not European although the Argentines think they belong in Europe and that God punished them by putting them in South America......but I digress

They don't call him Gasoft for nothing. He was 0-12 in the playoffs with the Grizz so that says a lot about his toughness in the post season.

He turned into a huge disappointment and I think he was really exposed during the series, well of the series he played bad.

Agree, it is a black mans sport. Each team should have only one white active or bench player.

Sasha Vujashit needs to go back to his gay porn career.
Before the Finals, Kobe was blabbing about how he gets along so well with his European teammates because he spent a couple of years as a child in Italy. How do you like them now Kobe??

Sasha looks like Scola, a couple of TRANSVESITES. And that rubber band he wears in his head is RIDICULOUS.

Would love to see Crittenton explode into an All Star and end up biting the Lakers in the ass like the Caron Butler trade did.

Remember the stupid ABC game time story about Vujashit getting the rubber band idea from the cheerleaders? It looks like he also wore their panties because he played like a cheerleader! What a poser!
He acts like he's so good because he can shoot a wide open jumper after Kobe is quadruple teamed. The moment the Celtics played defense on him by forcing him to actually dribble the ball, he wet the bed!

GM Mitch Kupchak of the Lakers is a bad GM period. Just look at how much better the Celtics bench was over the Lakers Fakers. It's futher proof that Kupchak sucks.
Being from DC, we're still laughing that Kupchak gave us All-Star Caron Butler for Kwame Brown who will be out of the league soon.
I don't believe for 1 second that Kupchak was smarter than every other NBA team thus enabling him to steal Pau Gasol (a good but not superstar player) for Kwame Brown (worst player in the NBA)
Clearly, the trade was engineered by David Stern. Any team in the league was willing to give up more than a Kwame Brown for Gasol

Thats why I hope Memphis gives Crittinton playing time and explodes into a great player. I hope it just backfires on that whole highway robbery deal.
