Someone please check Duncan and Garnett % againts Gasol and compare it to the rest of the season, Gasol is struggling in the help defense against the perimeter guys, but in the 1v1 he has played the best defense of his life against the best players in the league.
Do you think that we would been here with Bynum and w/o Gasol?

^exactly. Gasol made the difference after Feb 1. Bynum was hurt and we were losing a couple games. Gasol got hurt then we started losing some games. Gasol has helped opened a lot of other players and is more important. So once again NO to that trade idea.

Gasol one on one D is above average. He doesn't foul often because he doesn't try, so that forces the offensive player to score over a tall guy. However, his help defense suck a55.

Bynum was a excellent help defender and a good one on one defender. He would have rejected so many of those shot with help defense. Gasol just puts his hands up and hopes the guy misses.

BYnum get better u basturd. We want revenge soon!! :banghead:

A smart person would trade Odom for a good SF, but the guy has been ride and die with the Lakers, so he grows on u. Anyways when Bynum gets back healthy, than the Celts have no chance. He will solve all our frontline problems: Defense, Help Defense, Rebound, great hands, Tuffness, Shot Blocking, and a low post player.

No Battier, No Artest, neither of the 2 is the key.

Are you kidding? They're both great defensive players. We would have beaten the Celtics with either one of those players. We need more defensive players.

No no, it would have to be an unconditional the year after. I'll take my chances that Yao is fragile and Tracy is on his last legs. For that matter Head too probably.

Absolutley not. Watch closer. Odom is the big name that needs to be shopped. Pau is very skilled. He needs some core training yeah, but he is a winner, and what other man at 7 feet tall that is a post guy has his touch, no one. But yes, he needs to go up a lot stronger than he is, especially when he's under the goal. Did you see that jumper he made on KG from like 2 feet away it was like a fadaway jumper from 2 feet away he put touch on, that was a crazy shot.
