D'Antoni said if these players can't keep pace, then they have to find players who can.


Pauuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!

Why did D'Antoni sit Pau down the stretch? "I was thinking I'd like to win this game, that's what I was thinking."

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Lakers are ****ed w/ this guy. :oldlol:

[maybeshewill13]

We'll take Pau, just take Perkins and Lamb :rockon: :lol

[HannibalKid]

Pringles when asked why Gasol didn't play at the end of game " I thought to myself I want to win"

Coach giving up on Gasol lol

[InfiniteBaskets]

Yes, I'm sure Raja Bell is a great start.

:lol

better learn to shoot threes Pau.

[Wang Zhi Zhi]

:lol :lol lakers done goofed

[Mr. I'm So Rad]

It's the first sign of what's to come: Mike D'Antoni is stubborn in his system and won't change it for personnel.

[LongLiveTheKing]

Pau's out of LA lol.

[It's A VC3!!!]

Wow, the guy who played Robin for Kobe's 4th and 5th rings is going to be aggressively shopped very quickly. I don't like the bashing from D'Antoni. Very few players can play at you're pace. Give these players time to get into the flow you want instead of calling them out.

[R.I.P.]

The sad part is somebody will completely overpay, when Gasol should not get more than a few expiring contracts and a 1st round pick at this stage. Watch them get Josh Smith or Al Jefferson or Bargnani/Calderon. Oh yeah that last one is it. Give the Lakers a back-up PG with 3pt range and a stretch four.

lakers would have lost by 50 tongith if dantoni had played gasol .

lakers looked 100% Better after gasol was benched

[Clutch]

D'Antoni :roll: :roll: :roll:

Knicks lost by 28 but this made my day much better :oldlol:

[bagelred]

Pau for Amare.....make it so.

This is what I hate about D'Antoni the guy is a stubborn asshole, but someone needs to call out Pau. I mean he's been a total no show for the past 2 playoffs, someone needs to light a fire under his ass

[R.I.P.]

Pau for Amare.....make it so.
LOL. The Knicks would be a lock for the East finals with Melo/Pau/Chandler and a legit threat to the Heat. :eek:

[It's A VC3!!!]

If it wasn't for his salary and my appreciation for Hump I would take on Pau. Heck I would still take him on the Nets probably.

That somebody needs to be Kobe. Not D'Antoni

[longtime lurker]

That somebody needs to be Kobe. Not D'Antoni

Agreed. Kobe needs to step up his leadership game. With both Pau and Dwight. These guys need to realize it's about championships

[tmacattack33]

Is there video to what he said? If so, somebody post it. That'd be hilarious.

[KingBeasley08]

Pau's a horrible fit for Mike's system. This is why they should have gotten Phil Jackson. Too bad Jim Buss let his ego come in the way smh

[dazzer87]

Don't worry there will be a YouTube video of Kobe throwing Pau under the bus, any minute now.

[B-Easy8]

Ridnour and Williams for Gasol.

Williams can play your stupid run and gun offense D'Antoni.

[Shepseskaf]

Its going to be the mother of all meltdowns when Nash comes back and LA realizes that its still not enough.

Once Pau gets shipped out, who's gong to be left to throw under the bus? Blake? MWP?

[Sharmer]

I thought Dantoni, did good, they just didn't make shots,

[flipogb]

The rest of the team fits D'Antoni's system, Pau doesn't and he has to go.

Laker fans like D'Antoni and feel the same way about Pau.

if Pau gets shipped out and they still suck, then they suck.
At least shipping out Pau will allow the Lakers to find the truth , good or bad.

The system helps AJ, Gasol is just too slow for this type of offense. He's a half court , slow tempo, player.

[Spaulding]

Pau for Amare.....make it so.

That would be pretty cool to see Pau in New York.

However, I do not see any team that would pickup an injured player with a huge contract that doesn't even produce effective numbers when healthy anymore.

Did u even wqtch the game??? A post to just bash kobe i guess

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

Lol add kobe and u got a deal

Mutha fcuking twolves fan...dont even undertand pau would be perfect fit for love who hangs on tbe 3pt line

[MAC system]

You can't be this stupid

The lakers need a player to come and play everyday... Not cruise through past 2 yrs .. Regukar season & playoffs???

Remember Phil bumping him against dallas?

[B-Easy8]

Lol add kobe and u got a deal

Mutha fcuking twolves fan...dont even undertand pau would be perfect fit for love who hangs on tbe 3pt line

Im aware of that, which is why I proposed that trade.

What are you saying?

[Cali Syndicate]

Looks like a lot of Lakers fans might be getting what they've been wanting for a awhile now.

[Big#50]

Wait, wut?

[MMM]

Wait, wut?

He must of interpreted that as Kobe being robin to Pau.

[NumberSix]

Good thing they didn't hire PJ. That could have been a disaster. Really dodged a bullet with that one.

[GreatHILL]

since when the fakers fans like pringles?

[andremiller07]

Pau for Amare.....make it so.

Why would the Lakers want Amare, hes always injured losing his athletic ability and is a even bigger liabilty on defense than Pau, at least Pau has size and length Amare doesn't even have that. Amare for as long as I can remember has been one of the worest at D out of the big name big men. He has 1/4 of the IQ Pau has and a slightly better outside shot, this imo is a straight out steal for NYK even with Gasol playing as poorly as he is.

[Qwertyazerty]

Lol add kobe and u got a deal

Mutha fcuking twolves fan...dont even undertand pau would be perfect fit for love who hangs on tbe 3pt line

So, what would be yous proposal??? Sending Pau to a team that does not need him???

[clipps]

Bledsoe for Pau: The Clippers can use a big man off the bench to hit those open 17 footers.
