Must - Andrew Bynum
- Bynum has been solid most games these playoffs, and has been the second-best Laker not named Kobe Bryant over this span - Artest has been great as well. But unlike Artest, Bynum has the potential to put up huge PRA numbers on any given night. Even when other players have fallen off (see: Today's bust), Bynum has consistently maintained a high level of play. Fingers crossed for a 30+ PRA effort.
Bust - Pau Gasol
- Gasol has put up decent PRA numbers for an average player, but we are looking at an all-star caliber PF here. He hasn't hit 20 points yet these playoffs, and his poor play these playoffs aren't justified by his average PRA. I expect to see the ball in Kobe's hands during all the key moments in the game, but if the ball is not in Kobe's hands, I don't see it in Gasol's hands either. His game just isn't where it needs to be right now.
