Vanessa Bryant Is To Blame For Pau's Half-assed Effort

[scanry]

As reported this morning by Colin Cowherd on his radio show for ESPN, it appears that the recent struggles of Pau Gasol may be related to his recent breakup with his longtime girlfriend and fiance.

Cowherd was citing an article on MediaTakeout.com, which stated that two weeks ago Gasol was dumped by his girlfriend, and that he blamed a teammate's wife.http://www.lakersnation.com/rumors-relationship-drama-causing-gasols-struggles/2011/05/06/

lol way to break the news

[scanry]

C'mon i knew Pau's break up had an effect, but not Kobe's wife.. :lol

No wonder Kobe & Pau are not even on talking terms. Kobe ain't even mad at Pau. It's like he wants him to fail...:wow

[jeebus]

:cryGasoft is so vulnerable right now, people need to lay off the greatest big man in Laker history:cry

[Trainwreck2100]

not what i meant

[WildcardManu]

We'll take him for Bonner and RJ...

[Bill_Brasky]

Pau came to a crossroads. He could have dwelled on his breakup and blamed everybody but himself, including his teammates, or, he could have shrugged it off and focused on basketball, and posted huge numbers for all the haters to suck on.

Looks like he chose the former.

Wouldn't be the Lakers without some Hollywood drama.

Come to Texas, Pau.

You got a rapist and Parker/Barry thing there too.

You got no room.

You are naive enough to believe the Parker/Barry thing. Eva's excuse for divorcing Parker because he resigned with the Spurs instead of going to a bigger market. The divorce was announced shortly after Parker resigned an extension.

I know, but, Parker giving it up like that at 8 is indicative.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

Henceforth this loss will be remembered as the Gasol's love triangle drama

It aint' the end of the world, Dun. So you have a rapist in Neal. So you have a cheater in Parker. So Bonner & Pop yelled at each other during 8.

You still closed down The Forum.

And your sources would be?

Noyb

Well, all drama aside, this proves that the Lakers wouldn't of had the two championships before this, without Stern giving Pau to LA... proving Kobe is overrated... at least if you're saying he's top 15 all time.

Kobe - Shaq/Pau = No Rings

I was looking her up last night, some interesting facts

- Kobe met her at 21 and she was 17
- She is Mexican
- Never graduated high school

So she won the ghetto lottery

Ya dummy, she'd a got 50% + kick a buck at divorce.

He obviously made it up to her, promised no more slap & tickle, and he's surprisingly held fast in the ranks on that promise.

She obviously loves the asshole. If it was just about the money she would have left his ass after the rape/cheating they supposedly had no pre-nup and young children..

she would have cleaned up in court..

There's a lot more to it than just the money. She would be rich, sure, but she has kids with him and there's the glamor of being with Kobe who most fans and media do not get access to. He gets very special treatment and so does she. She would just be his ex-wife if they divorced.

Who knows how they are day to day but they met when she was just a kid and i am sure she thought he was her "Prince charming"

young love and all that..

Let me rephrase that. Fame digging.

She obviously gets off on being famous, and no Kobe would mean no more fame. She'd be irrelevant, and she just couldn't imagine that after being with KB.

Pau was on a terrible team. Kobe was on a terrible team. They needed each other to win, proving neither is an all-time great.

Yep, Shaq. I invented Daddy over at the old AZ Central Board, and brought it here.

[NewcastleKEG]

Is Vanessa really a high school dropout?..

Vanessa was born in California to Mexican parents who divorced when Vanessa was just a baby, after which her father moved to Baja, Mexico . Her mother Sofia raised her daughters alone until 1990, when she married Stephen Laine. In high school Vanessa legally changed her family name to Laine even though Stephen never adopted her. Vanessa later started working at the Westminister Mall in a clothing store.

The Laines lived in Anaheim and Temecula before moving to Garden Grove, where they bought a four-bedroom house. Vanessa graduated from St. Boniface parochial school in 1996, and Laine used his father's Huntington Beach address to get Vanessa into his alma mater, Marina High School. Vanessa wanted to attend Marina High School to be with her stepfather's nieces, because she was very close to them. She did not graduate from high school.

[Spurtacus]

Is Pau's ex the bearded lady? Vanessa probably did him a favor.

[Proxy]

Yep, Shaq. I invented Daddy over at the old AZ Central Board, and brought it here.

I see.... so explain to me how Shaq's success after the divorce has anything to do with Kobe's greatness.

.... but Kobe had Pau for those 2 rings.... which seems to prove the point I'm trying to make, in that Kobe would be ringless if he hadn't played with Shaq at his prime, and hadn't unfairly recieved Pau from West and Stern.

But, after one dominant big (Shaq) left, Kobe couldn't win a single playoff series until he got another dominant big (Gasol).

The constant? Dominant big.

If Kobe was the constant, he would've gone much farther than the first round with shitty players.

Kobe had Gasol, No Bynum in 08 - Lakers lose to Boston
Bynum shuts down Dwight in 09 - Lakers Win
Perkins gets hurt while Kobe shoots 6-24 - Lakers win

I could feel his eyes all over my Sportabouts.

[baseline bum]

This is probably how it went down...

1. Gasol asks fiance for a pre-nup.
2. Fiance bitches to Vanessa.
3. Vanessa flashes the $4 million ring bought to shut her up, and tells the fiance how a pre-nup would make sure she never got one.
4. Fiance walks.
5. Gasol shits the bed.
6. Bryant shits the bed.
7. Phil is off to Montana before the snow melts.
