and they did that because they knew the talent he has.

Bynum is better than all of our bigs. Buttom line. And thats just it. If we have the possibility to make our team strnger we have to take it. Thats how i think. And its not a punt on oden. I really loved that oden pan out. But his background show me the other way..

Not sure you can say that without context. Bottom line is the roster was put together the last 3 and a half seasons with a particular fit and style. What you're saying is Bynum is such a great talent, like Shaq, it's worth while to change those schemes when he's in the game because he is a game changer. If he was willing to take the Vet minimum, meet the same conditioning goals and be willing to sit until his number is called, great. I'm not seeing that from him.

Bynum needs to camp out under the rim for putbacks, doesn't run back for transition defense and is a general pain in the ass in the locker room. Lakers let him walk. Philly invested tens of millions in him and let him walk. Cleveland paid him $6M and let him walk. See the pattern ?

for the people like you who don't want Bynum, what exactly is your answer to our needs? just wait on Oden?

It shouldn't be based on one game but the bigger picture

Btw what happened to Clippers having no interest?

What's with all the Bynum hype? The guy hasn't played well in Cleveland, has shown attitude problems and I hardly believe he'll just want to be a cushion in case we need a big body to throw in there. Look how quickly he lost his motivation after things didn't go right from the get-go. I'd put just as much money on Oden being a consistent productive force as I'd put on Bynum. I was a fan of the kid's game, but his soft attitude makes me think he won't be the All-Star center he was for one season.

We need to make a play for Bynum, Bosh's rebounding from the center position has gotten beyond pathetic. He has 0 defensive rebounds in the first half of basketball, that should never be the case for a center.

Bynum can rebound, box out and he has size. If we want to win a title this year Bosh needs to be playing power forward, whether it be because Oden, Birdman or Bynum are playing along side of him.

Bynum played well for Cleveland, this is the same guy people believed could be the best center in the league and idiots in here comparing him to Eddy Curry and Dampier smh

Just sign him couldn't hurt at this point we need a big body inside Bosh just can't get it done alone.

I rather have Lewis and Mason bricking 3's all day than signing Bynum. I'm sure Spo would agree with me too.

I guess you're happy with this team being soft and clumsy when it comes to getting rebounds. Even if he doesn't play well, it's still a good gamble that the Heat should take because it's not like they're doing any better right now when it comes to securing rebounds and protecting the paint. Would you rather see Mason continues to brick open shots all day or would you take a gamble on a guy who was once considered as a top five center in the league a couple years ago?

Bynum routinely out plays Hibbert, but no let's sign a billion guards and play sissy small ball making Hibbert look like prime Shaq and push us to the brink of elimination...and with Indy improved this season it could be elimination.

Birdman was getting dominated by the stepback J bigmam in Blatche. It was terrible to see. He also jumps at everything. Bynum is not about to get abused when opposing teams get it deep in the paint unlike the Heat's finesse bigs. Birdman is a great energy player but he gets clobbered more often than not.

As much as I would like bynum on this team (as stated in the second post) I don't think these last two games show we NEED him.

No the last two years showed us that, tonight showed us that even when Bosh has perfect spot for a rebound he doesn't even jump and let's players like Blatche jump from behind him to get boards and putbacks.

y'all claimed we didn't NEED Birdman either, now look at him. Get over yourselves. We always needed a dominant big and we still do.

I don't think we'll see Bynum as a Heat because Spo will have to keep his girl locked up, or A B will let her C his D.
