    Makes no sense. But the argument is coming from a guy who failed calculus and let a golden retriever destroy his tomato plants. I guess surrounding said tomato plants with chicken wire was too demanding a task for luva's mind to comprehend.
    chickenwire is a little barbaric, tbh

    Bosh's pussy keeps getting pounded in harder & harder. He's mentally & physically weak. What the is he good for if he cant even score. Its not like he plays any defense or rebounds. Miami made a big mistake going after his overrated ass, they could of got 2 solid players instead of him.

    lakaluva is Charles Barkey. He's this board's mother ing Charles Barkley. Some of the stupidest you're ever gonna see or hear... yet you listen and read anyway. His ignorance and bull is likable - you laugh with him, but usually at him.

    Actually looking at the numbers, Pau has the higher PER and is also a part of EVERY top lakers 5 man unit, while kobe is absent from some of them. I'd say Pau is more important to the lakers success thus far this season than kobe.
    Though he couldn't win a single playoff game until Kobe took him in.

    ?

    Kobe's PER is 24.0, Pau's is 23.7. They're basically 1a and 1b depending on the game.

    And if you're referring to APM, I like the idea behind it, but it's so flawed for obv reasons. But aside from that, both are missing from a few of them, not just Kobe. Pau isn't on the 3rd highest unit while Kobe is, and Kobe isn't on the 5th highest while Pau is. Not surprisingly both of those lineups have small sample sizes wrt minutes played, and both Kobe and Pau are on the two lineups that actually have >200 minutes played together.

    To be fair, Pau had the stones to challenge Kobe publicly. Bosh would have assumed fetal position immediately, ball-gag and all.

    Kobe doesn't respect submission.

    Naah Pau didn't have no stones he was just wishing upon a star instead of sneaking a piece of the cake his mom just baked, he was licking the icing....he was really too afraid to get him a piece.....Kobe was actually protecting him...just imagine had Kobe really spoke the truth and said: " Listen up Pau stop complaining and shoot the gotdam ball when you get it."

    Pau would have withered and folded....Kobe never said a word negative about him because he knew Pau wasn't and is still not ready for that kind of challenge Kobe endured with Shaq...

    You all are blind. Pau complains about Kobe shooting too much and him not getting touches in the post, and Kobe's the blame. Yet, Bosh is playing with two of the top three ball hogs in the league, and yet they get no blame. Pau is an overrated piece of , and he gets even more of a pass because he's white. Yup, I said it. You all have elevated Pau to the best big man in the league... it's mind boggling on my end. This mother er has virtually been outplayed by every other big man he's faced this year... especially Bosh.

    ^ this....there has to be an explanation for Kobe winning....even if Pau gets 2 more rings in LA...I'm not so sure he's a lock for HOF....people will look at him like....ummmmm yeah...lemme see Pau...I guess..well he was sort of....ok.....let me think about this one......

    Now let me preface this by saying I'm not a big Bosh guy...I did lobby for him once that being said...I understand fully where Luva is coming from...

    I could boil this 'stat' argument down pretty easily tbh...because most of you cats are only good at trying to clown Kool but I doubt seriously when it comes to it you can hang with me intellectually on any level about any subject...

    Stats story: Pau's is slightly better but why is the question?


    • In LA Kobe goes out Pau has control of the offense....



    • In Miami Wade goes out Bron is in control and vice versa, Bosh is playing wonder woman to Batman and Robin...and he's doing a dam good job compared to Pau...it's rare that Bosh is ever anchoring the offense by himself...Pau gets this opportunity all the time.


    Bosh is less of a pussy than Pau....Bosh will get up for the challenge of playing Shaq, Garnett, Marc Gasol , you name em....Bosh would be a much better player alongside Kobe simply because he's more aggressive than Pau....Stats that Pau gets in LA you can attribute half to Kobe...

    Pau is not very well at reading defensive schemes either...look at him on the floor he's out of position most of the time because he's not attuned to the simple defensive plan of the other team and is being lead or pushed to the top key or baseline by players not even playing the 4 and when this happens it leads to Pau just shooting off balanced jumpers or passing into a turnover...

    He gets forced out of the block with ease...watch against any small forward...everyone and anyone has their way with him...even bigger gaurds...

    Bosh - yes he had a really bad game lately but Miami's struggles are clearly not Bosh's fault, when he doesn't score he plays extra hard on defense...Wade and Bron also don't know how to use that cat...if they were smart they'd play a 1-2 game with Bosh rolling from the top of the key but they don't do this...they usually spread the floor with Wade and Bron playing a 1-2 from the wings...that's why these ers aren't winning in the play-offs...Bosh rolling to the front of the rim with Lebron would be awesome , if he misses the shot they'd be in a decent position to get a rebound and kick it to Wade for a J since he is a better shooter than Lebron...that's how I would space them s.... Lebron should be the #1 option, Bosh #2 and Wade #3...sucks for Wade since it was his team originally but until this is done they ain't winning ...Mark my words...

    I've watched Bosh a few games and the Heat struggles are not his fault at all....whereas the Lakers earlier struggles we're clearly Gasol's fault...He was always out of position, he never called for the ball...and when he did get the ball because he was out of position he shot a bad shot or he made a bad pass...Usually I'd blame the point gaurd for this...but not this time...Fish and / or Blake maybe shouldn't pass him the ball when he's being an air head and not forcing his position down low, but the problem is that Pau's play / positioning allows the defensive teams to be over aggressive on our ball handlers out on the perimeter, forcing turnovers in really bad spots and leading to easy transition buckets...

    You fruit toppings like TriggeredE, Tyson, Midget, et al, have no clue what the you speak of...and really don't know the game...You can pull stats out of your wide open ass if you like...it won't change a dam thing...

    Pau is also Lazy on defense compared to Bosh and that's saying quite a bit... Pau quit on the defense end because he thought he wasn't getting his touches....but as I've stated Pau was ing up our entire offensive sets because he was always out of position...and Kobe just got ing tired of it...Even Phil clowned Pau for being weak...

    The only way Pau plays well is if Kobe makes him feel special...Go back to 08 when Boston beat us...Pau was out there clowning himself talking about floor spacing and and Phil lite into him about learning how to recognize defenses...granted he's never been on the big stage before so I give a slight pass but Kobe had to remind that PAUssy just who he was and encourage him to man up against Garnett...

    Listen anytime you say some like this you are a weak man period..Kobe must be tired of baby sitting s:

    Kobe- "Even when he was in Memphis and he was the go-to guy, he was always very nice," Bryant said of Gasol. "I talked with Pau a little bit about being a little more selfish, being aggressive."


    Pau's response:

    "It definitely had a very positive effect on me that he approached me," Gasol said. "He let me know, 'Look, it starts with us. And I'll go, but you've got to go, too.' " "Every time we communicate, it has a very good effect on me," Gasol said.

    No way a future HOF at this point in his career should need this elementary level of encouragement to feel good about himself...It's insane tbh...

    Bosh's numbers were inflated playing in Toronto's system. They were an uptempo team meaning they had more possessions, plus he played with Bargnani at center who helped spread the floor so he could attack the rim. He doesn't have much of a post game, but instead will shoot and drive to the basket.

    Though it is sweeter than pie when he hits that mid range jumper. I get all googly-eyed and you can see the opponent slump ever so slightly.

    That is what happens when you try to use stats without context outside of the first month Pau has not been more important to our success than Kobe ...

    MIAMI -- In the midst of their worst losing streak of the season and under significant pressure and scrutiny, the Miami Heat are starting to show some cracks.

    Chris Bosh complained about his season-long role in the team's offense in the wake of the Heat's 105-96 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday night, the Heat's fifth straight defeat.

    "It is common sense, we can talk about it, but I think it's evident," Bosh said. "I just have to get it where I'm effective. I'm a big man. I can shoot the ball but I'm a big man. So I have to get it where big guys get it. Then I feel I can start helping out this team more."


    I'm saying what I need to do as a player, a closed mouth doesn't get fed. I'm uncomfortable now so you might as well do something else.

    -- Chris Bosh
    Meanwhile, Dwyane Wade hinted that Heat coach Erik Spoelstra may need to re-evaluate the rotation. The Heat's bench was outscored 41-8 by the Blazers after scoring just six total points in last Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. The team's rotation changed recently with the addition of point guard Mike Bibby, who signed last week.

    "Hopefully guys can be aggressive and contribute more," Wade said. "There are guys on the bench that can help us, no question about it. That is all on coach. We've had guys like Eddie [House] help us win games and James Jones, etc. He's going to have to decide whether or not people are on the floor."

    Bosh's comments came after one of his worst games of the season, scoring just seven points on 3-of-11 shooting. He was outplayed down the stretch by Blazers power forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who had 26 points.

    At the center of Bosh's complaint was not getting more touches in the low post. As part of the Heat's offense this season, Bosh has operated out of the high post and taken mostly jump shots while being a screen-setter for teammates Wade and LeBron James. Bosh said he planned to raise the issue with teammates and Spoelstra.

    "I've got to get back in my comfort zone, I haven't been in my comfort zone," Bosh said. "A lot of things are new for me. I just have to be more aggressive in demanding my [the ball] comfort zone, you know I'll take the fault for that... I'm effective down in the low post area, so that is where I need to start getting the ball. I need to be assertive in demanding it."

    Bosh has seen his scoring average dip about six points a game this season as he'a getting about three fewer shots per game than he did with the Toronto Raptors. His shots, however, are quite different.

    According to Synergy Sports, 50 percent of Bosh's shots have been jumpers this season. Last year, only 31 percent of his shots were jumpers.

    Going public with his frustration may have been a carryover from Sunday, when Bosh scored 23 points on 9-of-14 shooting but only got one shot in the fourth quarter. Then against the Blazers, Bosh was guarded routinely by the smaller Gerald Wallace in the first half but the Heat did not call plays for him or look for him in the post.

    "I'm saying what I need to do as a player, a closed mouth doesn't get fed," Bosh said. "I'm uncomfortable now so you might as well do something else. If there's a disagreement or something, that's fine, we can talk about it. If they don't want that, that's OK, but I just feel that I have to be my normal self. I'm not there right now. I haven't been there many times this season."

    During the preseason, Bosh seemed to be on board with the new niche the Heat were carving out for him that didn't include as much time in the low post.

    "I never really like to bump against people that are a lot, lot bigger than me," Bosh said in October. "I'm not the biggest guy in the world. Coach is going to put him in that position sometimes. He's not going to hang me out to dry. He's going to put me in there when we have an advantage."

    Wade, who combined with James to score 69 of the Heat's 96 points in the loss, said he'll attempt to address Bosh's concerns.

    "I think throughout this year we've all had spells where we wanted the ball more," Wade said.

    "That is what we're used to. Whenever one of our teammates comes to us and says 'I can help us more in this situation' we'll do our best to make it happen. It's the time of the year when I know I'll be very aggressive and I know LeBron will be very aggressive. We have to figure out ways to help Chris to be more aggressive and understand this moment. It is our duty and our job to make sure at this time of year, when Chris hasn't been in too many of these situations, that Chris is more productive. He can be more productive for us."
