Halu Sination:
Oden was there.
What the FUCK was Kobe thinking on that 3 point shot, that literally cost us the game. Jesus.

y not just start Odom as SF with the rest of the starters with bynum, i would think that would be the best line up

I think Odom, Gasol, and Bynum would crowd the paint. You want to spread out the offense. Plus I'm guessing that the 3 guys on the court at the same time his Phil Jackson's ace in the hole. Since the Lakers got bitch slapped in the paint in the finals last year, he can use it when he needs it without anyone being prepared for it.
wcsoldier:
Gasol Bynum and Odom on the court at the same time is a terrible idea (read Ted explanation) ... I already think that both Pau and Drew at the same time in the clutch is not a good thing at all on the offensive end ... the spacing is not sufficient , Kobe has a lot less room to operate and attack the basket ... PLUS Pau is still way more efficient and dangerous as a post player i.e the center position than a face up guy ... Gasol post moves arsenal is way more developed than Drew one AND his ability to find a open shooter or players cutting to the basket (Lamar and Kobe) is LIGHTS ahead of Drew ....
The question is : Do you think that Drew addition on the defensive end in the clutch will allow us to stop teams to the extent that we can sacrify part (quite a lot imo) of our offensive efficiency ? I dont think so ...
Thing is if you really want to play Drew and Pau together , you need to add a extra shooter at the 2 (Sasha who finally seems to start finding his shooting touch back) and move Kobe to the SF position ... but then Ariza defense is not there anymore ... so basically the defense argument lost some of his credibility
