He had a decent game, sub par from his usual performances, but 13 pts on 11 shots, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks isn't bad either. Kobe took 29 shots to score 29 points. I'd say they were both disappointing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep. Gasol > Kobe. This is preposterous You won't be saying this when Gasol lifts up the Finals MVP trophy. That still doesn't make him a better player than Kobe. Tony Parker won the finals MVP in 2007, is he better than Duncan too? How are you people not getting this? It's not very hard to understand. how are YOU not getting this. playing better =/= better player How is it not? If Gasol has outplayed Kobe this series, then he is indeed currently the better player. Just like if the Magic played the Cavs, and LeBron dropped 25/7/5 on 45% shooting and Jameer dropped 35/8/4 on 50% shooting, Jameer would've been the better player, not LeBron. thats not how basketball works. It's how everything in the world works. no its not. Talent is something constant and gradual. Players careers form somewhat of a parabola. Talent is not something that changes by the day. Ray Allen can not be basketball jesus on a Sunday and worse than player X on the bench last night. Players have good days and bad days. You can not judge them day to day or else arguments would be endless. One must be judged on long periods of a group of data rather than individual pieces of data.

It is when talking about the player currently playing better, which can also be called the "better player at the time". Jameer was the better player in the Bobcat series, but that isn't to say Jameer is overall the best player on the team, but he was the best player for that series. And that's what Gasol has been so far. The best player for the Lakers so far in this series. Does THAT satisfy you, MR MOD? I don't think I can be any more specific than I am now.

It can't be a draw because I said it first and whenever you come to such draws, the person to start it all ends up winning. You should read a book sometime.
