[QUOTE=Kobe24]You guys are seriously stupid as hell. Initially, Bynum wanted to block the shot or strip the ball. Wallace ELEVATED which Bynum didn't know that he was going to do that and it struck Wallace in the rib area. Bynum wasn't even looking at G-wall's rib area. Bynum just stuck his arm out. Suspension worthy? Not at all.[/QUOTE]
The only thing I agree with is that Bynum does not deserve to be suspended. The only reason I think the league should let this one go is because Bynum did not go anywhere near Gerald's head, which is what players are taught to do. Foul below the head. This was just a hard foul that turned into a very bad situation.
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.

Coming from someone that has almost 9,000 posts.
Hurts me a little bit.
Lets hope next time Raja Bell clotheslines Bryant again.
Damn, that sucks.
Hope he is OK.

Look you idiot, there's a difference those two fouls.
If player A is frustrated and takes his anger out on player B that's a dirty foul.
If player A gives a hard foul and player B lands awkwardly that's a flagrant foul but not a dirty foul.
dangggg. wallace is one of my all time favorite players. how long will it take him to recover from this, anyone know? =/
edit: to someone who said he was brittle: i don't think it's that, i think it's cuz gforce is so daring when it comes to driving in the paint for some nasty dunks or doing anything he can to block a man's shot.
Hahaha, the Bobcats beat the Lakers AGAIN? Yeah, Championship contenders my ass.
Anyways, Bynum didn't intend to injure, but he did use his elbow to stop a drive. The stupidity of doing that to a guy in mid-air means that he should and will be suspended, just like Al Horford was suspended for hitting TJ Ford in midair. The NBA needs to do it, to protect star players more than anything.
If your stupidity causes players to be injured, you need to be suspended so that next time you'll remember "Oh yeah, I can't use my elbow to stop a drive to the basket."
And Gerald needs to start being a little more careful. A collapsed lung isn't as bad as it sounds, but his career could be in jeopardy if he isn't a little more careful. People said it was a football play, but G-Wallace plays the game like it's football, and that's a big part of why he gets injured.
Lakers fans, you really come across as losers. Bynum needs to be suspended and you know it.
[QUOTE=Kobe24]Cheap shot? That was great defense. He put out a hard foul. It wasn't flagrant worthy either. Ball doesn't lie.[/QUOTE]
Wow, I hope the next time you play in a pick up game someone does that cheap shot to you. Doing a cheap shot like that when a guy is in the air can be career threatening. I hope someone breaks Bynum's neck the next game.

also, don't forget the part where he steps on Wallace's foot

if this happened to someone on Dallas, the dude would be suspended like 20 games.

If Kobe or LeBron had been the player injured this would be an automatic suspension regardless if the player was worthy of getting suspended. Sad really, lol.

Youre the ****ing moron.
I wasn't even comparing the two fouls.
I just WANT Bell to own Kobe again. And have no one back him up.
Watching you Laker fans cry wolf last time was priceless.
Wallace has a collapse lung and a broken ribs, yet you ****heads show no sympathy. Some even blamed Wallace for being in the position he was in.
[QUOTE=StephenDedalus]also, don't forget the part where he steps on Wallace's foot[/QUOTE]
I watched again and holy ****, he did step on Wallace's foot. AND drove his elbow into Wallace as he did it. That could really change things, he did that to stop G-Wallace going up, that HAS to be a suspension if the league catches it. Now I'm starting to think it wasn't just stupidity or a freak accident, that was [U][B]dirty[/B][/U]. And Bynum was watching him the whole play, it's not like he was surprised, he knew what he was doing.

Freeze it at 0.28. He drove his elbow right in there.
Well now I hope Bynum gets injured again.
[QUOTE=EricGordon23]Just another reason for me to hate Bynum. Besides the fans that overrate him.[/QUOTE]
i used to like him last year when he played with effort on both ends of the court now hes just a little *****
