    I heard it was just a rumor simply since his girlfriend was at the home games.

    Phil said as much in the Gm4 postgame but declined to give names. Everyone knew he meant Pau.

    He just wasn't able to respond to the Kobe face.

    Gasol was the reason why the Lakers won last year. And he was the reason why they lost this year. He is still a great player and one of the best bigs in the league today.

    It just goes to show how much Kobe's game has declined when everyone is blaming Gasol for the Lakers losing, even though they still had a dominant big man in this year's playoffs.

    Andrew Bynum was pretty damn good on those rare nights when Kobe would let someone else touch the ball.

    Andrew Bynum is one player who I think would flourish on a lesser team; or a team with great point guard or at least backcourt of unselfish guards.

    Actually, I think he is the one Lakers' star that might get traded outside of Lamar Odom and/or Ron Artest.

    Can't have soft guys on your team especially if you expect to win a championship
