2 Game Suspension for Bynum 

Post#1 » by heatwillbeback » Sun Mar 20, 2011 7:10 pm

The other thread on Bynum's flagrant was locked, so I guess a new thread with this information is in order

Per text and email from ESPN.

I feel Bynum's foul was cheap with the potential of injury present, but two games may be a bit excessive. One would of been fine to send the message imo

Bynum is getting his usual late season "rest" with these games.

Well deserved, someone needs to teach this young arrogant bum a lesson on the court also.

Waaaah, poor Michael Measly. Dude only stands out what little he does because of the black hole of a team he's on. Excessive suspension.

You'd think that wigwam Measley is sporting would've protected his head as it bounced off the court anyways.

Wow just saw the play. Bynum's lucky Beasley didn't get hurt or it would have been a hell of a lot more than 2 games.

I usually think that Stern goes a little over the top with fines, etc but I like this. It was a really dirty play and Beasley could've been injured.

League should double Bynum's pay for two games for shutting Measly's mouth.

I figure the Lakers should be used to playing without Bynum.
