looks like pau is going to be a defensive weakness all game long. 17 of the 24 points were by his man, no joke.

edit: st beat me to it.

19 -- did you notice Pau's "defense" on McGee's dunk to open the second quarter? Pretty comical...

Lakers are +8 with Gasol in the game. Is that good or bad?

Outstanding. If he was playing any D, he might be a +12 or 14.

That's what I saw. Lamar changed the game. He's been outstanding - on pace for a triple double in only 10 minutes. I am pretty quick to get down on him, but it's definitely a luxury to be able to bring a guy like that off the bench to stanch the bleeding. Provided he's into it, of course, like he is tonight.

I don't really think it matters tonight, regarding Gasol being a + or -

I want to know if it is just me, but has anyone else noticed that with Dick Stockton announcing the game if it kind of brings back some memories of when he used to do the games back in the 80's on CBS when we were making title runs with Magic, Kareem, Worthy, AC, and Scott......

......just listening to him reminds me of those days. Not weird or anything, but it just sounds odd.

Holy crap, I just noticed the score, Lakers have 62 with 3 minutes to go in the quarter.

They could have 70 by halftime.

i don't think kobe is going to get enough minutes to get 10+ assists. he's at 4 right now. bynum has 8 boards, so he better get 10.
