PLAYERS: Pau Gasol
TEAMS: Los Angeles Lakers
November 28 Mike D’Antoni on Pau Gasol trade rumors: “I don’t get it. That definitely doesn’t come from us….It’s like New York, this is Los Angeles, that’s what you all do and that’s good. You all talk and most of it’s wrong. But it does get people interested and that’s good. I’m OK with that …”-Dave McMenamin Darren Collison on not starting vs. Philly: “You can only control so much,’’ Collison said. “At the end of the day coach is going to make a decision. He’s made plenty of rotation switches throughout this whole coaching thing….I just wanted to come in the game and show them that I’m a starter in this league,’’ Collison said. “But I also wanted to make it a point that it’s not about me, it’s about the team and I really just wanted to focus on winning and stuff.”- Dwain Price

Via Beyond The Buzzer  |  November 28, 2012
While Pau Gasol continues to struggle in the new Lakers speed ball offense, averaging a career low 13.4 points per game, Mike D’Antoni defended his starting power forward against the inevitable trade rumors and said contrary to outside belief, he thinks Gasol actually fits in his system: According to the LA Daily News: “I don’t get it,” Lakers coach Mike D’Antoni said...

Gasol may be odd man out in L.A.

Via Crossover Chronicles  |  November 28, 2012
Pau Gasol’s season got off to a rough start. He clearly didn’t fit into Mike Brown’s Princeton offense and now Mike D’Antoni at the helm isn’t going any better. Gasol is posting career lows in points (13.1) and shooting percentage (42.3%) due to the fact that he’s forced out of the paint by Dwight Howard and taking more outside shots. While Pau is capable of knocking...

Pau Gasol has knee tendinitis which could be why his game has suffered

Via 5TH QUARTER MAGAZINE  |  November 26, 2012
According to a report by CBS Sports, Lakers forward Pau Gasol is dealing with knee tendinitis.  This could be a reason why his numbers and performance have not been in great shape lately.  The media and critics have been blaming head coach Mike D’Antoni and his new system as leaving Pau Gasol out of the loop, but the offense could just be an excuse.  Even his own teammate, Kobe...

Would the Lakers trade Gasol to a Foe?

Via Project Spurs  |  November 27, 2012
That was a question that was asked in a Hoopsworld article. Pau Gasol has been a great fit so far in Mike D'Antoni's Lakers' "Run-N-Gun Lite" (since Steve Nash isn't running things) version of his old Phoenix Suns offense from years ago. You can understand Gasol's frustration with that system since it's a purely offensive heavy system with that...

Who Wants Pau Gasol?

Via HoopStuff  |  November 28, 2012
It is no secret that Gasol is struggling with the Lakers, as Dwight Howard has pushed Gasol out of the post, where he is at his best. Howard works best with a stretch forward who plays on the outside, while he just dominates the paint. This tandem with Gasol and Howard simply is not working, as Gasol is averaging under 13 points per game. The team would be wise to trade Gasol while...

Stop pooh pooing over Pau, here’s why!

Via hecmanhoops  |  November 28, 2012
Last night Pau Gasol continued his disappointing start by posting 10/9/3 and a block in 32 minutes. Suddenly I’m getting questions from the left about him. I’m getting questions from the right. I’m getting questions from above and below! I’m getting questions everywhere, man! I’m like the guy that got food thrown at him by lots of people at the same time and am trying to...

Via Sports-Glory  |  November 27, 2012
Los Angeles Lakers forward Pau Gasol has a reason for what his coach and Kobe Bryant think is a lack of hustle.  He has tendinitis in both knees.   "It was just something that started flaring up in the preseason," Gasol told ESPN after practice Monday. "I didn't want to stop, and I don't want to stop now. I just don't have that luxury." Gasol...

Via Sports-Glory  |  November 28, 2012
Los Angeles Lakers head coach Mike D'Antoni told Ramona Shelburne of ESPN that he regrets leaving Steve Nash and the Phoenix Suns for the New York Knicks. "I shouldn't have gone to New York, I should have stuck in there and battled. You don't get to coach somebody like him [Nash] too many times. It's pretty sacred and you need to take care of it.
