Bench scored 76 points vs flop city and Gasol shot 5-18 vs Atlanta. He's far from being the "sole reason" the lakers have 2 wins this season.
He's getting the touches spurfan claims Kobe steals from him, yet he's still putting up subpar numbers. 40.9% from the floor, really? This is trash % for a guard, let alone a 7 footer.
The fact is without Kobe attracting double teams and spoon-feeding Gasol with open looks, Gasol underperforms. Spurfan likes to say Kobe only plays one side of the floor but it's Gasol who's underperforming on both ends tbh.
