Tendonosis in both knees is the reason behind Thursday's FAST Technique procedure, which is designed to keep healthy tissue in tact. Through his injuries, Gasol scored a career-low 13.7 points per |

He is beyond battle-tested after all of those years with the Los Angeles Lakers. Nick Collison is a valuable defensive big man and sneaky scorer. The Grizzlies have gotten a nice contribution from Jerryd Bayless. The only other significant bench pieces are Quincy Pondexter and Darrell Arthur. The reserves are not as important f |

| ust a better team winning with class. However, there are some oddly troubling aspects on display this time of year as well. First, we had Dwight Howard taking the coward's way out in Game 4 against the Spurs. With one technical foul already, and his Los Angeles Lakers down about 100 in an elimination game, Howard picked up another and got ran. The Lakers have a very busy offseason in their future. At the center of it all is Howard's impending free agency. The Lakers will probably have to move some salary to do th |

| Philadelphia, PA (Best E Casino) - Dwight Howard may or may not know who he wants to lace up the high tops with next season, but there are legitimate reasons why he should opt to stay with the Los Angeles Lakers. Think back to when former NFL star Terrell Owens' publicist said this: "Terrell has 25 million reasons why he should be alive." That is reason No. 1 why Howard belongs with the Lakers. The relationship Howard has with Owens, who was then clearing up an alleged suicide attempt, is that money talks. Zack |
