Andrew Bynum

[greg4012]

Oh, let me guess. You deeply care about the Heat winning. And you did so for ... 3 months.
Or you were a fan before, but you had to wait till when you turned 13 to join realgm ?

You and a bunch of other bandwagoners have turned what was once a really nice forum into crap.

Upon looking at this poster's join date, his comments became so richly ironic

With Oden looking like he can be a contributor, the Heat sent veteran center Joel Anthony to Boston last week as part of a three-team deal that brought guard Toney Douglas to Miami. But people around the league think the Heat are still looking to make another deal, for a wing, before the trade deadline - NBA.com

We are going with Oden, but why not bring Ennis back from ausie ??? i would like Rodney Stuckey but thats just a pipe dream

Someone pointed out Pat's philosophy when it comes to acquiring "bad"players. I looked it up and found this article

Sun Sentinel article:
http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2006-06-04/sports/0606030493_1_pat-riley-heat-locker-room

"When we got Strickland, I remember being told, `You've got to call him every morning. You might even want to have somebody stop by and bring him to practice,'" Van Gundy said. "Pat said, `Go to hell with that.' Pat just expected him to be there. Well, Rod was never a problem. He was there on time every day. And it was the same with Lamar.

"A lot of times, what you expect is what you get. If you're going to come into a situation and shadow somebody and treat them like children, not capable of being responsible, they're not going to be. And we've never done that."

So if Bynum does come here. He either acts right or he is off the team.
As always.. In Pat, Heat Trust.

We are on a streak of bad performances. Expectations are set, SPO and the players know Pat does not play. Get it right or get it gone, Old School all Day. They do not want that man to coming down and fixing anything. No one wants that.

[RJM]

Spoke to a buddy of mine down here in Miami that's well-connected to the team a few hours ago. He says that the Bynum signing is only a matter of time. What's being hammered home right now is concerns relating to Bynum's attitude. Pat, as we all know, won't be having any of that, especially during a season like this one. Once that is settled and established, the HEAT are going to have a new starting center to place alongside Chris Bosh.

Greg Oden is fine. Because of one of his legs being longer than the other, officials are working on a special shoe for him to play with that will provide balance for him. Miami is really pulling out all of the stops to ensure that The Oden Project is a success. The feeling is that there's no doubt about Miami's desire to keep rebuilding Greg Oden long-term, and they want him to have as much potential for success with us as possible.

If he gets hurt, he gets hurt. If not, Miami will have a starting-caliber center going forward. Either way, regardless of a Bynum signing or not, Miami is fully committed to Greg Oden, and he knows that. The only frustration he has is about getting his body ready to play and completing his rehabilitation. This is the exciting thing about this franchise. We care about our players.

SHAQ, for all of his complaining about Miami, actually lost some credibility when he tried to claim Pat Riley ended his career. Everything SHAQ used to resurrect his career in Phoenix was being offered to him here in Miami, but because he didn't like how he was being treated by Riley, he decided to loaf around and get himself hurt some more, similarly to his contract dispute with the Lakers before forcing his way out of there.

In Riley We Trust. Big time.

[Jaxon]

Well I hope that's true. We NEED a center now, there's no way around it anymore. The team is no longer athletic enough to make up for the lack of an interior presence.

man stfu, no one cares about your feelings about Bynum, get off your period already

Oh, let me guess. You deeply care about the Heat winning. And you did so for ... 3 months.

You and a bunch of other bandwagoners have turned what was once a really nice forum into crap.
A bunch of ungrateful (trade Bosh/trade Chalmers/trade Wade/trade Haslem) whiny "what have you done for me lately" little bitches trying to see who comes up with the most idiotic idea.

Ivan Johnson (to defend David West), Bynum and a guard is the answer to these problems.

Ok, you win.
Cause unless you play 6-7 guys, you want to play Ivan Johnson instead of Chris Bosh.

This shows you don't understand anything beyond basic stats. Anything beyond points or rebounds is lost on you.
I have no hope for you to understand rebounding rate, defensive rebounding or (gasp) spacing.
You just go ahead and dream of a team with Ivan Johnson and Bynum clogging the paint and all that sweet spacing gone, and I'll just watch this one that Riley put together. Even in your dreams that team will get clobbered on the pick and roll, and will have an offensive just as pretty as those Cavs teams Lebron was on.


PS: I see you post 15+ times a day. That's an awful lot for someone with so little knowledge, but I see this all the time: kids with lots of free time and who think they know everything despite knowing almost nothing, post a lot of stupid crap, instead of reading more and maybe learning something before they open their mouths.

You are the reason the ignore function has been invented.

ok: Join date reason: i I lost my account many times on here because I defended the Heat on the General Board, which is why my join date is what is is.

Second-----ooooooook I didn't think you were this stupid. But of course I'm not asking for Bosh to come off the bench to Ivan Johnson, but i think Ivan can be the replacement to Haslem - he's tough, rebounds, can score and has range - he fits. The problem is we would have to drop two guards to fit him in

Bynum would fit fine - the clogging the paint thing is overrated. We need size, i don't need to explain this. If you still wanna bitch and moan about Bynum like he smashed your girl then go ahead. We need size and I don't care if its Bynum or some other 7fter, but i prefer Bynum's experience and ability to score easily in the paint. You can run a lineup with Bynum and shooters and not have to worry about a clogged paint.

You people come on here and claim to know basketball yet always make the same mundane excuses for why we can't go big. You don't understand basketball if you don't realize that we have a team that can play multiple ways - we are that good and talented, we can go big or small it doesn't matter. Our issue right now is interior defense, how else do we fix that getting more size? Or are you so **** obsessed with Bynum's nuts that you cant see past that?

Iceburg Slim with the exclusive. Really hope this is true.

[RexBoyWonder]

I just talked with a super connected inside source of mine (Riley's grandmother second cousin).

She's 104 YO, blind and partly deaf but she still told me (after swearing me to secrecy) that if you believe any of these wannabes with their ridiculous "inside sources" - you're an idiot.

It's a done deal.

WHATS A DONE DEAL? WHO ARE YOUR INSIDE SOURCES, rileys grandma doesnt count. since u didnt say you have any, im assuming u got none, wow.

[shanedude]

I was going to pretend i have inside sources here (just for laughs) But people already beat me to the punch and now its not as funny.

[Maroko]

[RJM]

Alright, then.

[HeatDaChamps]

Alright, then.

Swear on paul walker's grave ur not lying.....

[RJM]

That's the thing: I don't have to swear on anything.

[HeatDaChamps]

That's the thing: I don't have to swear on anything.

HES A LIAR!!!

[Gwynplaine]

Ehhh.. I don't really like it when guys get called out for reporting something they heard.. Even if the source they have isn't highly placed.. It's not someone spewing total bull-crap.. They're possible.. Like when Watchout does it..

[RexBoyWonder]

That's the thing: I don't have to swear on anything.

HES A LIAR!!!

He's not a liar, some guys just believe unworthy sources and then pass them along as a credible source.

If Bynum was a done deal, that would have been a world wide scoop. There's a ton of real journalists with legit contacts that would love to break that story. Guys that have daily access to Heat players and staff, guys that know Riley on a personal level. If none of them is saying it's a done deal, it's not a done deal. regardless of what someone friend might have said.

I was kidding. I got u, but at the same time. IF you were to ask me who I would expect to be able to keep something completely quiet, it would be Pat Riley. I mean the beasley signing was known by nobody EXCEPT for woj. And woj is the best of the best. It doesnt completely surprise me that NOTHING has come out about Bynum. I mean nobody has reported anything about him since he cleared waivers. Dont u find that odd?
