all i can say is at least he is trying hard. he just had a steal a few plays ago. he is outmatched a lot and it shows, you still have to fight. i mean, why is he even on Leonard a lot, he cant stop him

Vuc is playing great with gasol on the bench. Like I said, it’s just the matchup.

That’s not really an excuse. He’s an all star. He shouldn’t get shut out by a matchup...but that’s just who he is.

Just to go through current box score:
leading scorer
rebounder
second in assists
tied with Isaac as leading blocker

Gasol is also former DPOY for a reason.

No, the play that got him started was the drive on Gasol. He just decided to show up.

I really think it has more to do with Gasol being in foul terrible allowing Vuc to work than with playing fast.

Lol acting like he wasn't completely chocking for 2.5 games. Blind fans. But glad he's waking up! Go Magic!

Looking like teams should fear the AG/Vuc combo. AG getting him for some good shots to get him going over that stretch.

Wait, so you guys are saying that all the negative comments about Vuc during the first 2.5 games of the series were unwarranted?

I don't know why people are calling out "haters". Vuc hasn't played well vs Gasol this entire series. He's taking advantage now of this matchup, which is what we want and expect him to do if we want to have a chance of winning this series. He's obviously the key to this whole thing.
