And I'm also convinced that Pau Gasol is allergic to the post, now.

I recall most of his points coming from the perimeter, which is amazing since a few years ago, he had one of the best post games in the league.

It's baffling because as others have already pointed out, Gasol has some of the best footwork in the post in the game.

I mean, when you're getting mentioned with McHale in the post, you've got a good thing going for you. Why he mucks with it by shooting outside jumpers - and three pointers last year! - is weird to me.

I've come to accept that players always want to do everything rather than just being really great at what they are great at. One reason I like Dwight Howard is he doesn't care if people say he can't shoot. He hangs by the rim and just dunks on them. Keep doing it, big man.

Lol my boy Reggie Evans prolly be schooling Brook at practice and taking all the rebounds from that giant.

Maybe he could learn alot from him?

Lopez should be getting at-least 10 rebounds a game in a league where mostly PF's are playing the 5..

From what I've heard from Training Camp to now, is that Reggie and Dray(Yes that guy)have been pushing him in practice hard in practice and at times in games, I've seen it this year, especially on the Defensive side. He actually fights back when battling for position where before he'd let big men push him all the way towards the 3pt line(still happens but not as much as it used to)LOL.

Just because they have big names does not automatically correct a problem they have, which is their bench and it was evident last night. Any team with a deep bench is going to give this team problems.

I never said it CORRECTED any problems, but Lakers fans can't expect to have a great bench when they're spending all that money on their starting lineup. My point was that any team with those four on their starting lineup isn't going to have a great bench, you can't afford it.

Its not what Laker fans expect, most realize they can't have all stars 1-12 lol. Its just fact, they dont have a stable bench and its an issue. Thats all.

What Laker Fans did expect it considering it wasn't much last year though?

In your original post, you made it sound like they don't need a bench when they do need one and it can also come over time(see Miami Heat).

As for today's games, there's only 2 games worth watching tonight and that's OKC/LA and Boston/San Antonio.

Out of town so I won't get to see Kidd's return to Dallas, gonna be interesting to see the response he gets from the crowd at the AAC.
