Pau Gasol says the Los Angeles Lakers should take greater advantage of their inside game in the remainder of their series against the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Daily News reported.
Gasol is shooting 62.5 percent from the field in Western Conference finals, now tied 2-2 after Denver's 120-101 win in Game 4 on Monday. But he took just four shots in the second half of a game in which the Lakers hoisted 31 3-point attempts and made nine -- a 29 percent shooting percentage.
"I wish we would take more advantage of our height and the inside game, because it's pretty effective. It's unfortunate that we don't recognize it enough," Gasol said, according to the Daily News.
"It's frustrating because we lose games," Gasol said, according to the report. "I don't mind when we win, because the bottom line is, I want to win. But I feel like we have an advantage, and I'm effective, we should stay with what works and what's effective and not get away from it. It just doesn't make a lot of sense."
Asked if there was any reason Gasol didn't get the ball more, Lakers coach Phil Jackson said "No. You can ask him when he comes in about it," according to the report.
"Some of it is ball movement. Some of it is their defense. Some of it is their help defense that's coming down. Some of it, I'm sure, is the amount of touches he's actually getting in the post," Jackson said according to the report.

Re: Nuggets Thread!!!
I still contend that if the offense runs through the post...through Gasol... and even Bynum when he is out there and being effective, the Lakers can't be defended. Gasol is shooting 60+%, or getting free throws and he's a VERY good passer from the post...which means other players are going to get very good lucks when the defense doubles or collapses. It's just beyond my comprehension that they don't fully take advantage of this...just milk it for all it's worth... it just seems so fucking obvious..I'm confused

c/s
would like to add...
the motherfuckers need to get REBOUNDS ...these motherfuckers will take a shot..it misses..they act like the play is over....NO! the damn play aint over...get in there and grab the offensive rebound!!!
Man I saw this one play where Ariza was drove in to shoot ...he missed and he just fucking stood there and watched someone get the rebound...If these niggas whould get they damn hustle on we really could have one that game last night.
especially since Denver started fucking up down the stretch

Go inside, stay inside, make them burn energy playing d.
Then it's a laker win.
Unless Kobe can shoot 55% and goes off. Otherwise, inside out.

april fools day was last month!
Why did they lose then ?
[cranrab]Tobe shot outside of the offense, by doing this and shooting 10-26 he took the entire team out of sync. Even though they are all professionals, when Kobe ball hogs, the rest of the guys don't box out or play D.
Even though they were getting their asses handed to them at the start of the game, and they were getting the early touches, the Laker big men knew it wouldn't last and shut it down early and often.
So the problem is kobe, he should come off the bench and be the Lakers "poor mans version" of J.R. Smith.
Do you want me to break down the replay for you on ESPN?[/cranrab]

What's funny to me is that no one is talking about the 20 OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS the Nuggets got. It started in the first and kept going throughout the whole game, i thought the Lakers had corrected it but in the 4th i believe the Lakers had gotten the lead down to 7 and then the nuggets got ANOTHER offensive rebound and the score was pushed back up. Time after time you would see one Nuggets jesrey in the middle of two or three Lakers jerseys and that one nuggets jersey would end up with the ball

kobes fault for not boxing out.
Nuggets Thread!!!
excellent idea, pookie.
let's talk about those offensive rebounds.
you did a FANTASTIC job with your narrative.
now let's get down to the why.
pick any 5 offensive rebounds from any sequence in the game, and let's talk about how the O rebounds occurred.
go ahead.

Re: Nuggets Thread!!!
what?
i thought you watched it. i thought that you'd be prepared to discuss the actual game, and not simply remark with generalizations.
Send me a copy of the game that you recorded and i will

Nuggets Thread!!!
so let me make sure i understand what just happened.
pookie remarks that it's funny nobody is talking about the offensive rebound discrepancy.
but when someone volunteers to engage in a discussion about the offensive rebound discrepancy, all of a sudden pookie has nothing to say.
what a surprise.
i'll throw out some more information.
the denver nuggets converted 12 of the 20 offensive rebounds into points
the fakers converted 6 of 9 offensive rebounds into points

Re: Nuggets Thread!!!
the nuggets won the game on offense rebounds plain and simple. i swear half u niggas dont know basketball didnt have shit to do with kobe shooting 2 much or anything. all 3 nuggets big men had double doubles letting that happen ain't gonna get it done. this loss falls on odom real talk he was 7th in boards last year and particularly when he was in the game he was getting KILLED by birdman. in reality andrew had a pretty good game , he needs to go after boards more but i question how mobile dude is in terms of scrambling for loose balls and the such. really it was odom , he only seems to show up on inbound passes now. if the lakers are gonna win this game and the title they need lamar odom to ball. i'm not even talking living up to his potential im just talking about a decent game from LO. shit gimmie a double-double something , cause reality is and no matter what none of u niggas or anybody says when Odom is on the lakers can't be beat.

Re: Nuggets Thread!!!
didnt you hear what the experts said? Odom is the second best player on the court. Its not his fault. Its kobes. Dont use Odom as a scape goat. Everything is kobes fault.
also, every offensive rebound the nuggets got, were the cause of kobe not boxing out and/or getting beat by his man. Watch.

here's another "funny" subject.
it's funny how the nuggets scored 52 points in the paint but their starting frontcourt only shot 37% from the floor. what might that lead you to conclude?
it's funny how the fakers' starting frontcourt shot 68% from the floor, but only scored 34 points in the paint. wonder how that happened?
