You can't compare Shaq and Pau. Shaq would need to be triple-teamed because of his raw power. Not a single person in the league could handle Shaq's big body 1on1. While Gasol is by no means soft anymore, he simply does not have the same strength that Shaq has. Instead, he is good because of his finesse and his tremendous amount of skill. That is not something that requires triple teams. Wait until Andrew Bynum comes back. Then you should start seeing your double and triple teams.
