Tim Legler: Projector Room: How West Playoff Matchups Would Play Out

[FuzzyLumpkins]

People here are forgetting just how good Bynum has been this year and what kind of impact he brings to the game. Let me educate you.

Wanna see how well the Spurs frontcourt is able to stop him..........(scroll to the 3:00 minute mark to find out)

He dislocated his kneecap and months postop hes still having sever swelling and cannot run in a buoyancy pool without pain. You cant even be sure that he is going to play at all but thinking that he is going to be close to what he was earlier when hes coming off an injury that shelved him for over two months is again just you being a homer.

[Mr. Body]

It's tough betting on a team with only two players with any real playoff experience, plus with the only two other guys with experience only playing playoff ball for lousy teams. Phil will get them playing well, but the POs are literally where tricks and experience rule.

I'd be stunned to see it go 7 games. There will be a game 3 or 4 where somebody - Horry or Ginobili or someone - just rips their hearts out. The rest of the team won't recover. Kobe will have a fit, tear it up, but it won't be enough. Do you really think Sasha Vujacic will keep shooting like this? Remember, he's not quite as good as Beno Udrih.

You can't even get your facts straight. Swelling is a natural part of the recovery process, and it is perfectly normal for there to be swelling in the knee even two months later. In fact the swelling might not completely go away until after the offseason is done. And he has experienced ZERO pain running in the pool, he said it himself and I can get you the quote if you want it. If you're going to accuse me of being a homer get your ing facts straight face.

And if we're gonna play this injury card how effective is Barry gonna be knowing he has torn the same calf muscle TWICE in the same season. Is he gonna go all out or be tentative knowing the wrong push off could tear it again and potentially end his career?

[Mr. Body]

Apparently DazedAndConfused lives inside Bynum's dislocated knee.

And, ' face,' Barry isn't all that important to us. If he doesn't come back healed, that's fine. We like him, anyway.

Barry isn't that important? Hmm, I beg to differ. I think outside of Finley he is your most valuable role player.

Good Christ, man. You're an idiot.


EDIT: I actually had to think about it. I'd put him 7th or 8th after the big three. Just in front of Vaughn, so about 10th in the rotation.

[DazedAndConfused]

Barry is a better player than Horry, Udoka, Bonner, Vaughan, and Stoudamire. I know because that mother er always kills us with his timely 3's and pesky defense. He just makes the Spurs 2nd unit go on offense, a very skillful all around player.

I saw where he was saying that when he could run in the pool with nopain then he could move on but nothing more so please by all means link it. then he has to do no buoyancy rehab and then think about actually working into basketball shape and mesh with the team. Thats at least 3 months on the shelf.

Also a bum knee that swells up all the time is not conducive to jumping cutting and moving laterally. Youre pipe dreams that hes going to come back from an injury like that and play like he was especially considering he has done no basketball in 2 months is just you being a mindless homer.

You don't know . Ime Udoka and Kurt Thomas come to mind.

And your only big who can play defense or a guy that plays maybe 12 minutes a night who can shoot the 3 when we have Manu, Finley, Udoka, Stoudamire and Bowen who can shoot it as well.

You're blindly lashing out like a fool.

At least 3 months...haha? So I should listen to some wannabe WebMD on a Spurs forum over Bynum himself, the Laker organization, and every LA media outlet?

Tim Legler makes predictions about as well as he played the game.

Pesky defense. Are we talking about Brent Barry?

We are talking about Brent Barry with someone who doesn't actually watch the Spurs.
