Agreed on everything.
At some point, Gasol's going to have to just start trying to do everything himself. He's too unselfish. It's a
miracle that he still expends so much wasted time trying to set up Jones, Jackson and Battier for easy shots, when they just clank every single one of them.
Teams are just sticking two or three guys on Pau and daring proven three-point shooters to shoot threes, and as it turns out, they can't hit a damned barn.
Shane Battier against the Clippers was a season-long allegory. He scored 16 points in the first on 7-12 shooting. He was 0-6 for zero points the rest of the night. The fact that he's still averaging 40 percent from distance is unbelievable and shows exactly how hot he was in November. He started out blazing from three earlier in the year, but he's been one of the worst offenders during this month-long avalanche and even before that.
Pau Gasol named to Western Conference All-Star team (?)
