andreusito Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 It says he's unhappy with the amounts of shots he gets, and that he would get 5 shots if he wasn't going after the rebounds From Spanish newspaper and it says it's an interview from LA Times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I agree. We are too dumb to dump the ball into him when he has good position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be fine. Edited December 13, 2009 by Legacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted December 13, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Gasol has never attempted more than 15 shots per game in his career, even as a primary option in Memphis. Right now, he's at 12 per, one less than what he took last season as an NBA champion. With the addition of Ron Artest, and a healthy Bynum, I'm not sure what he expected this year...but averaging nearly the same amount as last year isn't that big of a deal. But yeah, with that said, he deserves more shots. Bynum is getting 12, Artest with 11, Gasol with 12, Kobe with almost 22. That has to change now that Kobe is injured. Otherwise, it was working, and it gave us the best record in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nissan Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Gasol is not complaning about his teammates or the coaching staff. Gasol is referring to the double teams he gets during the games and giving up the ball to the perimeter guys to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvester Of Sorrow Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 he should be happy, even with 5-10 shots per game we still winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 If I remember correctly didnt he complain a couple seasons ago when we lost to the Celtics. We definitely need to give him the ball more, I dont want Kobe resting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
