lol, first of all, i'm a literature teaching dude; second of all, i had a powerful math-anxiety flashback when i made that post cause i was almost certain that i'd gotten it wrong
Honestly, I do not know any of these guys personally, nor should I pretend to. All I can judge them by is the limited amount of activity I can observe. Amir has one of two problems. He is either really dumb, or he is really immature. I prefer to believe it is the latter.
Please note, the 3 minutes Amir was in, so was Herrmann. And Amir was playing center, something that has never worked out all season. (To be clear, our front line was Herrmann, JMAX, Amir.)
But Herrm-dog was a +4 meaning they scored 4 more points than LA while he was on the floor. That's a 12 point swing from AJ.
This is why we liked Ben so much. He had to come by his success honestly, without any hype. Just like all of us.
Bynum call ball I remember watching him when he played hs ball in chicago. On fox sports they had this show called Chicago Preps, which basically was like a documentary on hs bball stars in chicago. Eddy Curry, Bynum, Luther Head, a couple other college stars were all on the show. He started at Arizona and then transferred to G.tech..he was on their final four team a couple years back. He's always been crazy athletic. After college although he wasn't drafted he was still living the life. The last few years he's been making millions playing ball over in the EuroLeague, which is the best pro league besides the Nba (same one josh childress plays in). All he has to do is work on his jumper and he has the potential to be a great point guard in the league.
Warriors Waive Will Bynum..SOmeone please explain.... - Page 2 - Message Board Basketball Forum - InsideHoops lol, check out some of the posts. Obviously SL doesn't translate to the NBA! I don't think Will was making millions in Europe. A guy like Alex Acker barely made millions. Will has been a min contract NBA player so far.
at PG Bynum>Stuckey Hermann>Kwame>JMax>Amir Time to move Stuckey to the 2 and to end the JMax and Amir love affair.
There is something not right with Amir. I think everyone knows it but like him so they don't say. I think he is intellectually challenged. I think he frustrated Flip and our current coach who is also intellectually challenged.
Have to admit I never paid much attention to Bynum, kind of thought of him as roster filler, until the Boston game when he picked Starbury twice. Since then, he's starting to become one of my favorite Pistons (behind Wally).
One of the posters was hating on Bynum, and called for the Warriors to pick up... wait for it... Pepe Sanchez!
I feel the same way. When someone *cough* Darko *cough* with that much natural talent can't get on the court, there is something wrong. Amir commits redunkulous fouls, and he can't reboard at all. After 3 years in the freaking NBA, a player should be able to handle those two things. Hopefully for Mr. Johnson, he is just immature and he can grow out of it. I think Mr. Milicic suffers from both problems.
