What happened to Spur fans proclaiming Bynum would always be a scrub?

Including a dominating 19/10 performance today against one of the league's best interior defender in Kendrick Perkins.

Do you all ever tire of eating crow?

I never said Bynum was a scrub but I will give some props to DeJuan Blair who also schooled Perkins and KG:

18 pts (9-11), 11 rebounds (5 off), 2 blocks, 21:33 mins.

Young people seem to give Boston a lot of problems and they're not so hot right now being 6-11 in their past 17 games.

[Bob Lanier]

Elden Campbell, is that you?

[namlook]

Look at Bynum's crazy wingspan.

[Bob Lanier]

All Tony Allen had to do there was twist his hips a little.

Bad Celtic.

[Man In Black]

Considering that your GM has put his name out for trade means that most of us are justified in our thinking of Bynum. So while he has played fine as of late...does that mean he's no longer expendable? Or is it just a matter of time till he blows out his knee yet again?

[Ghazi]

There's a lot of Laker fans who do the same .

What happened to Kobe Bryant proclaiming Bynum would always be a scrub?

Fixed.

[Cry Havoc]

I never said he'd be a scrub. Most long-term Spurs fans didn't either.

at Laker fan who is so image conscious that he has to create a thread about every player on his team -- on a Spurs website.

Bynum's a fine young player if he can stay healthy. That's why it's all the more ridiculous that Kobe threw him under the bus.

Except Mitch never did that. Do you believe everything you read? Do you believe anything Peter Vescey writes about the Lakers?

If you answered yes to either of those questions then you're officially dumb.

Ya'll got ur asses kicked by Boston though & they probably didnt take that game half as serious as they do in the games vs LA.

He's never blown out his knee ala Oden. He's had his knee crashed into twice.

[Man In Black]

Dude, it matters not how it happened. It happened. TWICE! And as such, his knee is surgically repaired. It's not that difficult a concept.

Oh come on now...we both know I'm smarter than you. I've forgotten more about hoops than you could ever know. FACT. And since when did you have the Bat-line to Mitch's office?

I said what I said because Laker broadcaster Mychal Thompson said it happened. On ESPN 710-LA. He added that if I was Bynum, I'd beg to Jerry Buss to let me stay in LA and that I can play better.

Dumb? I think not. Try adversarial or even malcontent or even better...SUPERIOR

I didn't say it didn't matter. I'm simply corrected you that he never blew it out.

You know about basketball and you're in denial about the Spurs being completely cooked.

Look at Bynum's crazy wingspan.

Bynum probably has the longest standing reach in the entire league - it wouldnt surprise me if he could out reach Yao while both standing, he's that long.

[redzero]

19 and 10 isn't all that dominant, and the Celtics forgot how to rebound anyway. But he could make the All Star game next year.

[TheManFromAcme]

All I know is that I am glad the Laker FO decided to stick it out with Drew.
I remember when L.A. was in the KG sweepstakes and KG decided to stick it to us and go east.

Sometimes unanswered prayers are the best.
Which does lead to an intereting thread/topic.

"How would have L.A. fared with KG?".....hmm

[Rogue]

what happened to laker fans presuming Bynum would keep up playing healthily instead of snapping down midway after the all star break, like what happened in 07-08 season.

[Gutter92]

Yep, Bynum's a legit All Star, no excuse for Kobe not to win it all with the support he has this year.

[gm5k]

DAMN! love it. I could watch KG get dunked on all day

[Thunder Dan]

I like how the OP used "Spur Fan" instead of "Spurs fans" English Fail

[Mike D]

Bynum didn't do the Chicago predraft camp, so we don't know all of his measurements.

Select the category you want and the year and you'll be able to see the longest wingspans and highest standing reach measurements though. From what I can see, JaVale McGee of the Wizards has the greatest standing reach at 9'6.5".
