also, double park job

I want to know what kind of stuff the Mavs bench was yelling his way.



As for the parking pictures, did he park like that or was he loading his car? I mean I've parked in a handicapped spot for 30 seconds while loading or something like that too. Obviously if he parked there then that's messed up.

hhhhmmm

He parked there.

If Philly can tread water for the first third to half of the season while Bynum recovers and adjusts to the team (remember, he's never played with these guys) they could still put together a nice postseason run, if he's healthy. It's like I said, he only makes sense if you're already a playoff team without him, because he's a part-time basketball player. This certainly isn't good for Philly, but they may still have a very successful season, due in part to the trade.

This.

Nah, you're right. Philly wanted to make sure Bynum had a great summer.

When did I say anything like that?

You're defending him or you aren't?

I've said before that his choice to delay the surgery until the end of the offseason was a chump move. I've also said that I'm happy I don't have to deal with his injury concerns anymore. Not really sure where you're getting at.

How Philly feels or what Bynum should have done isn't my point. We haven't learned anything new about Bynum this fall: he's an immature dumbass with bad knees, impartial observers who were paying attention already knew this. However, this hasn't necessarily sunk the Sixers season because they might (might) be able to get by with him as a part-time player. This is what Bynum does: he gets hurt for a while, eventually winds up healthy, plays two-thirds of a season, and gets hurt again.

I don't disagree.

I see him going to the highest bidder this offseason though.

[Bogg]

If I were Philly (or any other team) I'd balk at giving him the max contract he's bound to get. They're set up to have a good amount of cap space this summer without Bynum, so using the space on other players, or working out a sign-and-trade with Bynum going to another team for a package of guys is probably their best long-term bet.

1) That was Kwame Brown

2) I've bashed Kwame more than anyone on this site (literally) and that was freaking hillarious. I think he smashed it on the ground, on the guy would of been more random and funny.

I can just picture the guy, big smile on his face, stupid birthday hat on, walking home with his cake. He sees a 6'11" 270 pound pro athlete! His birthday is getting better! Kwame has no expression, snatches cake and throws it on the guy and knocks off his hat.

This guy here...I think he might officially be in that Ron Artest/Dennis Rodman category

Dunno...those guys were at least quirky & somewhat likeable in a sense. This guy just elbows smaller people.

Bynum to the rescue! Flagrant 2!
