    I didnt even realize he was struggling till I saw the "Bynum misses Rambis" article on Realgm. Then I dug into his stats.. the last month or so he has posted stats like Oden did last year. Maybe Darizzle, Mamba, or Shapecity or somebody has an idea whats going on?

    Yes...He has had a respiratory infection for the last 3+ weeks. Phil Jackson even gave him some slack so you know it must have been really hampering him.

    During the LAL/PHX game I caught the tail end of them reporting the training staff had been working on him real hard and he said he was feeling much better. He got in foul trouble against PHX but before that happened he had a great first half.

    Here's an article:

    He hasn't had a double-double in the last 20 games.

    Bust.

    It hasn't been 1 day or 1 month. This is what his 4th season and he's regressing?

    Roy hasn't had that many bad games this season. You can't compare him to Osterta.....I mean Bynum.

    Game Log

    Of the 29 games Bynum has played in he's only managed to get eight double/doubles.

    Brandon Roy is a proven commodity. 2 All-Star games and Rookie of the Year.
