i can kind of understand why gasol has the beard when looking at this video - he looks like a mutated 12-year old.

now he looks like he belongs in deliverance, but at least he looks old enough to get a foul call every now and again

Who's REALLY going to be guarding Pierce?

he's right. vladmanovic to start, with bryant sliding over to guard the 3 when vujacic comes in.

the biggest mis-match is pierce vs radmonovich. paul could drop 40 a game on that piece of eurotrash. so rondo and kp better hit their shots b/c they're going to be left wide open.

kg should also be able to get a shot of whenever he wants against lamar, he's got like 3 inches on him. wouldn't be surprised if phil puts pau on kg and lamar on perk. also wouldn't be shocked if doc goes small to let posey guard kobe w/ kg at center.

...
ITT: boston bandwagon fans who know nothing about the nba. lamar odom is about an inch shorter than KG, and both players have very long arms. garnett's closer to 7' than 6'11, but lamar's closer to 6'11 than his listed 6'10.

i'm not saying KG won't be able to score on odom - but to think that he will because of a HEIGHT mismatch is idiotic. much closer to the truth is that pau gasol is nearly 3 inches taller, and has much longer arms, than kendrick perkins. though the latter is FAR stronger, and can in all likelihood simply push gasol out of the paint with ease.

Truth, especially about Gasol. He'll most likely play his part by making good passes from the post and finding cutters. The celtics big bodies are going to push him off the block a lot.

ITT: people that think they know shit when the numbers show otherwise.

both times against l.a. this year kg went for 20+/10+. so i guess he can score on lamar pretty effectively. maybe it's b/c of the HEIGHT differential since lamar outweighs him and kg isn't banging down low.

and i don't even like boston, faggot.

or maybe, since the "LOLNUMBERSWUT" show that lamar is only an inch shorter than garnett, it has more to do with the fact that KG is one of the most skilled players in the game and is more athletically talented than lamar.

big Z on cleveland is 7'3... HOW DOES HE NOT SCORE 500 POINTS PER GAME HE'S SO TALL LAWL.

to quote:
>i'm not saying KG won't be able to score on odom - but to think that he will because of a HEIGHT mismatch is idiotic.

kg did fine against la this season. it was because he's awesome, not because he's tall. you were wrong. get over it.

will kg be driving on lamar? no
will kg be punishing lamar in the post? no
will kg be shooting face up jumpers and fade aways on lamar? yes
will lamar bother those shots? no
why? kg is taller and just as athletic so when he jumps, he'll have a few inches of space any time he wants it.
duuur ilgauskas? height/hops get you the shot. you still have to be good enough to make it. if kg was 3 inches shorter but just as talented, lamar shuts him down.

disregarding height in basketball is about as dumb as disregarding speed in a wide receiver.

tl,dr- kg scores on lamar b/c he's awesome AND tall

no joking, ariza could be the most important player of the series, if he can keep either the truth or jesus in check lakers win easy.

i believe that kobe and walton will be defending pierce more than radmonovic, especially when vujacic is in the game.

Kobe has to watch it, Pierce is bigger and stronger than he is. He also draws a lot of fouls.

kg vs odom: great matchup.

kobe will kill anyone who guards him and shut down whoever he guards: pierce or allen.

pau will slaughter perkins.

fisher shut down dwill, parker... rondo has nothing against those two so he will have no impact.

radmanovic will be benched after the 1st time out and SaVu will be gay. SaVu=Eurofag Bruce Bowen

no one is going to be anybody's bitch i hope a giant meteor lands on the arena and kill everyone.

i think these games will be close. i do expect lakers in 6 or 7, only because in the regular season boston beat LA twice, and basically pau will be replacing Bynum, but obviously with more offense.

Gasol is too soft, he can't handle a physical guy like Perkins. He'll be much less of a factor than people think.

If Gasol can play against an Okur that has finally learned to attack the basket and Tim Duncan, then I don't expect Perkins to be a problem. Out of all the matchups Gasol faced, Perkins will be the shortest out of those four.

good point. if people say perkins will cause problems for gasol, what does perkins have that duncan didnt? duncan put up good numbers in the series with the lakers, but it didnt stop gasol from doing the same as well. nor did it stop the lakers from winning.

I guess you never heard of Duncan for three bitch.

Gasol is shit without kobe, all that vagina got were ally ops and great passes under the basket from kobe. he can't score unless kobe puts it on a silver platter.

Perkins isn't in the same league as Duncan, but he is a much more physical player, and I think Gasol will struggled with a banger like him.

In his last match-up against Perk, Gasol shot 3-13 and had only 12 points, though his rebounds and assists were standard fair for him (8 and 5). It's going to be a tough series for Pau.

you manage to remember that he was 3 for 13 and only had 12 points, but the fact that he was still playing with failures like Darko and JCN in that game isn't relevant enough?

if the result of a Boston-Mempis game in january is enough to convince you how "tough" this series is gonna be for Pau Gasol, you'll believe just about anything

Truth, now Gasol has people whom will be cutting constantly and he's an excellent passer.

Doc Rivers does not have the coaching capabilites to lead his team to a grand final victory. Although the celtics have the big 3, the lakers have a much more stable roster which can change up it's defensive/offensive strategies much easier than the celtics. They also have a more succesful and all around better coach who will allow them to attack the celtics many different ways in every game, celtics won't be able to adapt as easily, they will be run down. Series will go to the lakers in 5 or 6 games!
