Pau Thread: Surgery a success; now rehab & rest for 12 weeks

well amare will be glad to shoot

i just like pau, can't help but like him. but we need a better bench. if we can get a player of amare's level while adding depth for pau then i'd like to think that it's worth it

Get this p***** outta here

any assurance that pau would be able to jump again once the tendonitis is addressed?

i yearn to see pau get more than an inch off the ground.

Way to step up when one guy is out there sick as a dog...

Pathetic.

Pau is a bad fit for us specifically BECAUSE of his unselfish nature.... he has an advantage on most nights and still passes to player with far less skill just for the sake of being "unselfish".... when you have the level of skill he possesses not using it to it's advantage is not a good thing....

No, Pau doesn't have the advantage on most nights anymore. And its been like that for a while now. Put a physical 6-6 player on him and he'll end up clanking an ugly fadeaway.

Really, would Amare be playing THIS bad under Dantoni?

Win now, worry about $$$ later. Amare for Pau in a freaking heartbeat.

even the garbage sig cannot help this man

Dec. 15th is when FA signings this summer can be traded...that plus not having Nash to see how he can facilitate Pau will make this a waiting game.

I think the most immediate action needed right now is to sit Pau and have him control the inflammation in his knee. The way he is playing right now will not help us. Kobe is special and that is why he can pretty much play through anything. Pau is just not that type of player....in fact most NBA players aren't. So he needs to sit, get himself right and then come back....cause he can't help us playing hurt.

Unbelievably pathetic. He's gotten about 5 shots blocked.

I feel bad for pau..it's obvious his body is failing him

Please don't pleasssse don't make any excuses for thisise abomination of a basketball player and doesn't deserve a chance to thrive under Nash they need to ship his arse to a scrub team for some shooters. Pau sucks plain and simple there is.no.hiding from it anymore for the.love of god ship him out before he inevitabily shrinks under the pressure again 3 years running now

Maybe he SHOULD be a jump shooter... just work on that part of his game.

You make it sound like its easy to send out 38M in salary when the super tax hits this summer...on top of it, we're sending out a 32 year old big man (bigs break down much faster than guards).

December 15th frees up nearly 25% more player options that we don't have now. We have yet to see what Nash can do for this team. I hate the fact that a system relies so heavily on one player, but the FO made their bed and now the fanbase has to lie in it.

The waiting game is inevitable, whether you like it or not.

I already knew that they will attack Pau in the last possession.

GET THE BLEEP OUT! JUST GTFO!!!!

wth is wrong with this guy

Pau isnt going to stop Hill from getting that close to the rim....bad situation him even being in there knowing that it is better to go small at that point. More agile.

take a 1 way trip to spain and dont come back

pau...with horrible d at last posesion...hill just passed by him like he wasnt there...
plus how can you be 7ft tall and get blocked 5 times...

Pau exploited again by a quick guard? Shocking!

this guy is playing like beidrens more andmore everyday

Problem is that paus stock is WAAAY low..who would take him?? At this point we'd get expiring Ks and picks

Why is he even in on the last defensive possession

When Metta hedged, Hill went the other way. Left Gasol on an island. Dwight was too late to cover. Bad D possession.
