Lets be real for a second: We are almost surely not going to win a championship without Pau Gasol playing well with the starters. However, there are only 12 games left in the season. We have a 1 1/2 game lead on Utah which is really a half game because they have the tiebreaker. We cannot afford to try and figure things out right now with Gasol in the starting lineup. He needs to be moved to the bench so the rest of the players can take on their roles they have been comfortable with in the past 20 games. We have a four game road trip coming up next, which, because of tonight's loss, will make or break our season. Does everyone remember what happened earlier this season with Pau in the starting lineup and our performances on the road? Not pretty. No one on here is bashing Pau. He just simply needs to be moved to the bench for the rest of the season and playoffs. If our coach realizes this I am extremely confident we will make the playoffs and have a chance to do some damage. If not, well, I'd rather not think about that...
