Here we go again
This guy has the easiest life.. Makes millions of dollars based on his potential, meanwhile he's smoking weed and going bowling.

:lol
what's up with these USA traditional big men and their fragile knees anyway?
He should take HGH. F.uck it. This guy seriously irritates me. He simply doesn't give a f.uck. He's truly a piece of shit. He doesn't care about basketball or the teams that take risks on him.

I remember when he was 17 i had all that big hopes about him, dude is a lazy douche. Waste of talent.

Bynum might be a total bonehead, but it's not that easy. Some people are just f*cked when it comes to their body. Idiot or not...
dem knees.
but two things to point out:
1. Sam Amico is full of sh*t and is never accurate
2. is anybody really surprised? I'm more surprised by the fact that the article says he will be ready early on in the season.
What exactly was his injury this past year?
[QUOTE=chazzy]What exactly was his injury this past year?[/QUOTE]
specifically over the past year bone bruising plus loose cartilage fragments in his knees.
Last off season he had that blood spinning technique done overseas to try and promote some new cartilage growth but it didn't work out.
after that one practice with philly he had a procedure to get that loose cartilage cleaned up and he's been shut down ever since.
Cavs have such a promising year ahead, it would be a shame if it was distracted by Bynum and his constant injury problems.
Does anyone else think this year has a lot of strong teams? Moreso than I have seen for quite a few years...
How the **** can you be out this long?
[QUOTE=iDunk]How the **** can you be out this long?[/QUOTE]
He looks like a child, acts like a child, chances are it's his childish lazy ass that prevents him from getting on the court. Now if he had a Kobe mentality, he would likely of worked hard on core training and leg exercises to take as much stress off his knee and prolong his career.
[QUOTE=chazzy]What exactly was his injury this past year?[/QUOTE]
"Bowler's knee" and heavy "brain trauma".

he's reportedly been working his ass off in Cleveland, but in the spirit of your post he did have his first knee surgery as a child, as a 12 year old. He was born with f*cked knees. Not much he could do to prolong his career besides not play. Very different situation than Kobe. And how many players in the entire league's history have Kobe's mentality?

I believe that his issues are cartilage related. I don't know if HGH has been shown to regenerate cartilage.
[QUOTE=chocolatethunder]I believe that his issues are cartilage related. [B]I don't know if HGH has been shown to regenerate cartilage.[/B][/QUOTE]
it has not. Cartilage regeneration is like a holy grail of sports medicine. Doctors can regrow a type of cartilage in damages knees like Bynum's, but its different than the kind that we are naturally born with, and it doesn't work more often than not.
Take it from us sixer fans: old news
Be funny if oden plays before Bynum.
[QUOTE=fiddy]I remember when he was 17 i had all that big hopes about him, dude is a lazy douche. Waste of talent.[/QUOTE]
He wanted to be an engineer, not a basketball player. He started playing late in life. Even so, he worked hard at his game and became the best scoring center in the NBA and earned himself some fat contracts.
Now he probably is pissed because he didnt get to follow his engineering dream, even though he's a millionairre.

That's pretty much what microfracture surgery is btw

:facepalm American diets are high in fat, sodium, protein and sugar... let's not blow sh*t out of proportion and make it seem like we eat 'chemicals' and drink toxic poisons in our water you spoiled little suburbanite. Our 'flouride' and other mineral enhanced water is actually INCREDIBLY clean and beneficial to our health compared to the non-developed World's water which is often infested with bacteria and other potentially hazardous microbiology found in runoff from unmanaged factories and/or human waste. The sh*t our water treatment plants removes or adds to our water is to keep us healthy and strong not make us weak. And while our food is prone to making us Obese, Diabetic, and at an increased risk for Heart disease there has certainly never been a single connection with that to any alleged stunted growth of our developing children's knees you dirty hipster.
Keep on 'fighting the system' though man . I'm sure you know all about 'chemicals' and 'flouride' and other evil corruptions in the food system - even though you've probably never spent a day in your life in a 3rd world village watching what real people have available to eat and drink :rolleyes:
Bynum reminds me of a kid who basically keeps getting passed in school because the teacher wants them out of their class. So he plays hookey all day long and does whatever he wants.
Except instead of a teacher wanting them out of their class, it's teams that sign him and think that he's going to produce. He gets paid money to show up at a few games but for the most part sits at home collects that $.
hawkfan Trade Scenario (where amazing happens):
Hawks get
Andrew Bynum (expirer - 2nd year non-guaranteed)
Cavs get
Kyle Korver
Gustavo Ayon
The Hawks get rid of Korver's bad contract and clear out minutes for Jenkins and Cunningham. The Hawks take a flyer on Bynum, hoping that he will be ready by playoff time (which is really all they need him for - 24 minutes in the playoffs per night).
The Cavs are looking to get into the playoffs and Korver helps them do that. His shooting, ballhandling and passing help round out the Cavs offense. For the Cavs, his contract isn't bad since free agents don't like going to Cleveland.
Trade works due to 150% matching rule and due to the Hawks being able to absorb Bynum's contract (will still be under the luxury tax).

Thanks, but I'll take a chance on the best center in the league when healthy as opposed to two role players.
lol Bynum.

he is not a computer wiz. he built a goddamn computer once. Anyone with an ounce of common sense can built a damn tower.
[QUOTE=DukeDelonte13]i think it's been revealed that its not really structured like that. Rather the cavs have up until Jan 10 to cut their losses at 6. mill.
he may play but i think if he does it won't be pretty.[/QUOTE]
Ah that sucks. So Bynum
