Gerald Wallace hospitalized for possible collapsed lung

[QUOTE=andrewbynum 31]I agree with you. Morrison's foul wasn't that bad because he slapped at Gasol like a 10 year old girl.

On the other hand, you obviously dislike the Lakers and Andrew Bynum so everything you say is biased.[/QUOTE]

So Bynum didn't elbow the exposed chest of an airborne player along with not even being close to playing the ball? Right :rolleyes: I wonder who this alternate account this belongs too :ohwell:

[QUOTE=Godfather]Are you seeing the same thing I am?

Grabbed the shoulder?

He tried blocking a player a good 4 inches taller than him and a massive wing span and on the way down his hand incidently touched Gasols head as Gasol made the dunk and flopped to the ground...

How on earth was that anything like what happened to Gerald???[/QUOTE]

B-b-b-because Morrison didn't play the ball, and Gasol fell to the floor! Yes, thats it!

He did not try to make a block and miss, he jumped late, and knowing he had no shot at the ball, pulled Gasol down while Gasol was in the air. The end result was not an injury to Gasol, but the intent was certainly equal to Bynum's intent on Wallace.

I like this take on it...

[QUOTE]it looks like Bynum missed his rotation and tried to make up ground fast to save face with Coach Jackson. He reached out with his arm to wrap up him, Wallace hit the key much faster than anticipated, chest meets elbow, ouch. Was it lazy defense by Bynum? Yes, no doubt. But malicious? Please ...[/QUOTE]

Look at my other posts and I agree with everyone that Bynum's foul was stupid and unnecessary.

With you, I see a bunch of different posts that act like Bynum is the big playground bully who wanted to hurt Wallace. If Bynum wasn't a Laker you would probably be sitting on your ass looking for a different thread to troll.

Yeah that's definitely a good explanation. It's amazing that came from Yahoo sports.:wtf:

Pull up one of my posts that show he wanted to hurt Wallace....hurry up. Him being a Laker has nothing to do with it, besides the fact that will probably be the reason there is no suspension, or serious consideration of one, and there wouldn't be the amount of ignorant fu[COLOR="#000000"]c[/COLOR]ks(ZeN and Kobe24, looking at your homer asses) who act like Bynum did nothing wrong.

But like I said, pull up one of my posts that state Bynum did it with intent to hurt Crash.

Edit: actually, I'll pull up my posts.

[QUOTE=qrich]Leading with elbow on top of not playing the ball one bit should be on grounds for a suspension to be, at the least, considered. Should be upgraded to a flagrant two as well, if he isn't suspended.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]As I posted earlier, Bynum did not play the ball, not the slightest bit, lead with his elbow, and from the replays, seems like he also did step on Wallace's shoe. If it doesn't result in a suspension, I will be somewhat surprised as I believe it does warrant one. Now, was it intentional? We will never know, regardless, it was an extremely careless and stupid play on the part of Bynum.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]Let's see, like I've already posted, Bynum did [B]NOT[/B] play the ball, and he went in with his elbow, not to mention, it seems as if he stepped on Crash' shoe as well, all these put together should warrant a suspension, but of course, it won't happen.

Hypothetically, if this was, let's say, Udonis Haslem didn't play the ball one bit and led with his elbow against an airborne Kobe or even Ariza, all of you would be calling for Haslem's head, and saying he should be suspended for more then just a game. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]I don't recall that incident with KG and Bogut, but if it was a punch to the face, then that is a guaranteed one game suspension. Any punch thrown, whether or not it connects, is a minimum suspension.

Bynum shouldn't get suspended because Crash got hurt, he should get suspended because he didn't play the ball and led with his elbow onto Crash, who was airborne and had no way of protecting himself.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]Regardless, if it was a shot to the face, then that is a minimum one game suspension. Bynum should get a suspension, but nothing more then two, that is going too far.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]I don't recall Morrisons foul on Pau, but I'm confident it wasn't worse then how Bynum fouled Wallace. Did Morrison seem to step on Gasol's shoe, make zero play on the ball, and use his elbow to "try to protect the basket" against Pau's chest, despite it being wide open due to both hands being on the ball above his head :rolleyes:

Bottom line equals, this should be considered to be a one game suspension, two max. And like I already said, if Haslem were to foul Kobe the same way, would you say it's nothing but a hard foul? Highly doubt it.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]:lol :oldlol: @ saying that is a harder foul then Bynum elbowing an airborne player in the chest, which was clearly exposed.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=qrich]So Bynum didn't elbow the exposed chest of an airborne player along with not even being close to playing the ball? Right :rolleyes: I wonder who this alternate account this belongs too :ohwell:



B-b-b-because Morrison didn't play the ball, and Gasol fell to the floor! Yes, thats it![/QUOTE]

So, where exactly did I say Bynum wanted to hurt Crash? Read posts next time a'ight kid?

[QUOTE=vert48]What I am saying is that Morrison made no play on the ball at all, and his intent was to pull Gasol down. He did not try to make a block and miss, he jumped late, and knowing he had no shot at the ball, pulled Gasol down while Gasol was in the air. The end result was not an injury to Gasol, but the intent was certainly equal to Bynum's intent on Wallace.[/QUOTE]

Please even Andrew Bynum 21 admitted the stupidity of you comparing the two fouls. He not only did not pull at Gasol, he instead touched Gasol's head as his hand was coming down after a failed block. Gasol still slammed the ball through the hoop with force in the act showing how weak the "touch" was.

If the intent was to put Gasol hard on the floor at least he would have stopped the dunk right?

Arguing with QRich is like arguing with your retarded little brother that wants to hang out with you. He's just mad that Bynum made his loser franchise look like a d-league squad. He's a Laker hater. I don't blame him for that. Clippers haven't been relevant since....




They ain't never been relevant.

DeAndre Jordan had a career game (20+ points on 9/10 shooting) against Lakers and Bynum. It is flashes of brilliance like that that Clippers fans are excited about...

I like how I already shytted on you every thread you brought that up. Bynum wasn't guarded by DeAndre. Just because they are both C's doesn't mean they were guarding each other. Ask any Clipper fan or Laker fan if Bynum guarded DeAndre. Box score watcher..

Arguing about the Lakers or their players is like talking Politics between drunk Republics and Democrats. Nothing will ever get resolved and everyone's too stubborn to admit their wrong.

So, show me where I said Bynum wanted to hurt Wallace again, until you do, you're one of those too stubborn to admit they were wrong :oldlol:.

I'll admit I took you for someone else. You should admit you hate the Lakers, lmao.

How on earth was that anything like what happened to Gerald??? [/QUOTE]
Well if we strictly follow what the NBA rules state, both plays involved unnecessary contact. Bynum was assessed a flagrant, no reason for them to change it now. The replay doesn't show any "unsportsmanlike act" from Andrew, which might've influenced the league to change it to a flagrant 2. Unfortunately, the fact that Gerald was admitted to the hospital with a collapsed lung and a broken rib will affect the league's decision to suspend Bynum.

[QUOTE=andrewbynum 31]I'll admit I took you for someone else. You should admit you hate the Lakers, lmao.[/QUOTE]

Nope, don't hate anyone in the league, no point in wasting time with another NBA team, like you Laker fans sure do with the constant bashing of the Celtics and Cavs :oldlol:. Someone should get you glasses as well so you would be able to read clearly.
