Charley Rosen's Close Look: Pau and Marc Gasol's Brotherly Battle

Filed under: ,



Brother, where art thou?

Right here, bro. In your face.

There were several reasons why the Grizzlies defeated the defending champion Lakers, 98-96, on Tuesday night:

Kobe Bryant dominated the Lakers' offense way too much -- shooting only 9 of 25 to get his 29 points.

Charley Rosen's Close Look

With 15 books about basketball and a longtime column at FOX Sports to his credit, Charley Rosen is bringing his talents to NBA FanHouse for a weekly look at some of the NBA's most intriguing matchups.

Mike Conley had a career game, scoring 28 points on only 13 shots.

Memphis had six players in double-figures to the visitors' three.

Ron Artest had an ill-advised triple attempt blocked at the buzzer by Rudy Gay.

The Lakers perimeter defense was awful, and the Grizzlies swarming defense was superior to LA's often static offense.

But another major factor was the outcome of the battle between the Brothers Gasol, Marc (at 7-1, 280) for the home-standing Grizzlies, and Pau (7-0, 227) for the Lakers.
