Gasol blocks shot to seal Lakers OT win
Pau Gasol - F/C - Los Angeles Lakers
Feb. 9, 2012 - 11:05 PM ET

Pau Gasol, likely disappointed by an All-Star snub, had 25 points, 14 rebounds and two blocks as the Lakers held on to beat the Celtics in overtime on Thursday.

In addition to the nice line, Gasol blocked a putback attempt from Ray Allen at the buzzer that saved the game for the Lakers, and also made some clutch plays near the end of regulation. Maybe the All-Star snub will motivate him for the rest of the season.
