I do think having Perk is HUGE for OKC. You saw what he did with the Lakers' bigs. San Antonio will take away a lot of the running you saw with OKC, although if they keep playing defense the way they have, they're going to still get out quite a bit.

I know Westbrook had a good series against the Lakers, but I think the Spurs will live and die with letting him shoot his jumper.

Skyhook79;1178591 wrote:Gasol played hard last night for him. 14 pts and 16 rebs is pretty good and he took the ball to the hoop a few times. But it shouldn't take Kobe calling him out to perform that way, he should do it on his own. Bynum was a big stiff last night unbelievable he was out played by Collison ( a sub) badly. He basically had one big game in the Playoffs this year, Game 1 against the Nuggets. Time to move on from the Bynum experiment.

Heretic;1178656 wrote:I'd agree with this. Bynum was a bitch in the series. He has talent, but due to early-career injuries and this year's weak postseason play, he's looking more like an enigma than a legit star-caliber player. And Gasol is a pretty frustrating guy. He's an excellent player, but how the hell can a pro athlete NEED to be called out in the playoffs for him to start deciding to play hard?

wildcats20;1178667 wrote:The shit that pisses me off about Bynum is that he was healthy for the first time in his career this year. Dude has all the talent in the world, but just refuses to match his weak ass mind to it.
