Re: How many games should Andrew Bynum get?

Rarely do I think there is any true intent to injure. But Bynum has to play smarter than that. He never went for the ball. He made a football/hockey move to block Wallace's path. And they wear pads & don't leap off the floor like they do in the NBA. When you add the results, I'm sorry, you've got to punish him in a way that gives Andrew, & the entire NBA, room for pause.

The league won't do much, but hearing Stu just cracks me up. Talking about That's a dangerous play when you have your hands above your head, you are exposing your rib cage.... Its like okay Stu tell me again how you're suppose to do a driving layup/dunk without "exposing your rib cage"?

IMO though, Bynum should definitely be suspended

He should have never fouled Bynum's elbows w/his chest. That's karma for you.

That's the kind of stuff I mean when I mention Stu Lantz.. Chick Hearn would've never said something that dumb in favor of proping up anything LA did.

No it was a football tackle. He led with the shoulder into the guys ribs.

Can you imagine what would have happened if Okafor did this to Kobe? Okafor would be demonized on every message board, and on ESPN from now until the end of time.

Some Charlotte fans are taking this way overboard.

I agree, but we are just the lonely Bobcats, I doubt anything will happen except a slap on the wrist. Just took away from what was a fantastic game.
