       place = response.Placemark[0];
       point = new GLatLng(place.Point.coordinates[1],
                           place.Point.coordinates[0]);
     map.setCenter(new GLatLng(place.Point.coordinates[1],place.Point.coordinates[0]), 13);

Found this in Google API’s documentation

function initialize() {
      if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
        var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"))
        map.setCenter(new GLatLng(37.4419, -122.1419), 13);
        map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl());
        map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
      }
    }

I think you need to call the addControl method on yours also.
