Pau Will Have Strong Impact

Pau Has Arrived
LAL 105
NJ 90

PAU had 24 points and 12 rebounds in his Lake Show debut, helping the Lakers win despite a season-low six points from Bryant, his first single-digit effort in more than a year. Damn Kobe, getcha game up.

Kobe's take on the Spaniard's performance: "He played extremely well. Defenses are used to playing a certain way. You know, screen-and-roll, where I come off the pick, they're used to playing a certain way. Now they have to evaluate how they play that. It's going to be a little bit more for defenses to kind of try to come up with a scheme."
