gasol + nash for me in L2
Pau Gasol (MEM) - The first week of the Athens Olympics, Pau
Gasol was a force of nature, an irresistable combination of
European basketball savvy and the NBA inside power game, drilled
into his head by Hubie Brown. He led Spain to an undefeated
record in the preliminaries and a date with the much-maligned
Team USA in the opener of the medal round. He started the way he
played in the prelims - like a player ready to move into the pantheon
of power forwards, with the Duncans and Garnetts. Then, in
the second half, he absolutely disappeared, and Spain went out
with a whimper and a lot of finger pointing directed at Larry Brown.
There's a lesson in there, somewhere, about Pau Gasol and his
future in the NBA. His talent is unquestioned. what he appears to
lack is the confidence and the will to take over a game. That apparent
lack of killer instinct - combined with Hubie Brown's 10-deep
sub patterns which limit his minutes - will continue to keep Gasol
out of the top tier of fantasy power forwards.

6 hour clock starts on jbahseng (I still don't know if I'm supposed to pick for him).
