Rob definitely doesn't want Bynum. He's been saying all along that he wants high character guys. Bynum is a mental midget with an awful attitude.

I'm not sure if I'd have a great attitude myself if I was the most gifted offensive center in the league, yet I was only getting 12 shots per game. Definitely reaching there buddy.

What's with the whining among members here? I come here for speculation, not a bitchfest. With that said, nothing going on huh?

I thought reports were that he's a techie, ie puts computers together in his spare time, studies mechanical engineering, etc ...

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/ ... /index.htm

They are joined in the house in Westchester in West L.A. by seven computers, several of which Bynum assembled on his own, and are among the fastest Corbin has ever seen. "Drew could be an engineer," says Corbin, who became a friend. "He built the George Jetson of computers." Bynum also put together a remote control car that could reach 100 miles per hour, to the delight of kids in his neighborhood. He trained a Labrador, Max, and plans to breed them this summer. He leased a garage where he keeps most of his 12 cars and hopes to open an auto-body shop. He loves projects.

That must be why he shoved Barea in mid air potentially ending his career. He just didn't get enough shots.

I agree and this also goes back to the debate here we had over Stephen Jackson and what a supposed d-bag he was and turned out not to be. Some people, not just ball players, are like this. I think Bynum will thrive being the leader or semi-leader on his new team just like I thought Jackson would provide the toughness and positive leadership he brought to San Antonio after being written off in Milwaukee.

FWIW: This is a tweet from the Houston Hoopsword source in reference to what Houston is offering for Dwight.

Thanks dude! You just made me realize why Rob is trading Dwight Howard..because of his cheap shots.

That elbow to Dalembert's head in the playoffs a few years ago.. That could have ended his career! Total lack of maturity and lack of attitude by D12

Point taken, but I was correcting it, put it up and he shut it down AGAIN.

But you asked why I was getting pissed is because he SENT ME A PM to correct it and make it PRETTY. SO I went to ALL the effort of doing so and when I hit submit the thread was locked.


This is the same reason, why I was a little mad you. It was already agreed upon between me and MTB that we would do 40. I didn't put that much effort into part 40, but if I did and you created part 40 without notice ...Imagine how I would feel?

With that being said, Would you like to do Part 41 whenever that comes up?

Leadership in sports is way overrated. I wouldn't call lebron, wade, or bosh great leaders and they're not doing too bad.

We're not getting Bynum, so I don't know why this is even being discussed.

:lol: @ at a cheap shot (like everyone in the league hasnt thrown a few) equating to a bad attitude

He is 24 years old and came into the league at 17...obviously he has some growing up to do. Dwight Howard was thought to be a "good attitude" guy and Shaq was thought to be a "bad attitude" guy, look how that turned out.
