maybe if pau started jacking up shots when he is double teamed with teammates wide open under the basket he won't be considered soft anymore.

i really couldn't care less what you kobe lovers say about pau. to any objective observer, kobe is selfish and gave up playing D about 4 years ago.

pau on the other hand does whatever the team needs including playing out of position for the majority of the season, consistently shooting 55%, leading the team in rebounds, blocks, and assists per touch.

Pau's considered soft because his numbers don't reflect the defensive impact he has inside, which has been mediocre the entire season. Actually, he's just awful. He hardly protects the rim consistently against slashers, and on top of that - although a skilled finisher around the basket, I'd die for him to grow a pair and take it to the rack with authority a lot more. His game spews finesse. Would like to see more Pau-wer.

And yes, Kobe somehow simultaneously manages to be one of the most selfish and successful superstars in sports. Fully equipped with ball-hogging skills his entire career, lets by pass that fact and keep on pretending its our first time witnessing such questionable shot selection and bitch about it anyway because lord knows when push comes to shove, the offense is the problem. And winning doesn't matter as much as how we're playing.

Pshht, You know the season is a bore fest when we end a winning thread with a teammate vs teammate debate.

I said he was soft cause that play was damn right soft guy got rejected by the rim he's a 7 footer jump up a bit palm that ball and slam it he was a pivot from the basket so no excuses.
