Hi. If you remember im from SouthAmerica and I watch tonights game just because Spurs have Oberto and Ginobili and they are argentinans. Lakers are not very interesting for ESPN here (I have to watch Spurs, Nuggets a Cavs over and over again). Please forget about my english, but is not my home language.</p> Well, this was the key of tonight's game for me. When the Lakers played the worst basketball, Kwame was on court.</p> </p> Mihm start at C, but he just play 6 minutes. Bynum went in and left the game in second with this score: Lakers 30-33 Spurs.</p> </p> Kwame enters the game with 6:23 left in second. He left the game with 3:23 to go in third.</p> When Kwame left, the score was Lakers 53 - 72 Spurs. That's a Spurs 32 to 23 run. Kwame was in the floor for 15 minutes, and he just get 1 rebound and 7 points. No defense and a poor ofense.</p> </p> Then, Bynum enters the game again. He was in the court until the finish. Lakers were on a 39 to 35 run. Garbage minutes? Maybe. But first quarter wasn't garbage time, and Lakers were only 3 down. Final score Lakers 92, Spurs 107, with Bynum getting another double-double in 26 mins.</p> </p> Phil, please dont use Kwame, trade him now, his contract is interesting for other teams! Mihm for starter and Bynum with the second unit (hes playing great with Luke and Farmar). Kwame is the worst C we have right now (send him to inactive list).</p> </p> I hope you understand, comment!</p>
Your english is great pablitocesar, and welcome back to SportsTwo. </p> The thing about this game is that the Spurs are the defending champions and basically I only see the Jazz, Rockets and Nuggets being able to stop them in the playoffs. Thats about it. (for the west)</p> And about Kwame, I too would try and trade him, but who would want him? And then start Bynum and bring Mihm from the bench.</p>
Kwame Brown plays some great post defense, but he negates his defensive play by all the other aspects of his game. He can't catch a basketball to save his life (I haven't seen anyone that horrible at catching), he has zero offensive game whatsoever. He bricks layups, and gets his dunks swatted 99% of the time. He can't hit freethrows, so whenever he gets fouled, it's an automatic zero points. The guy is even worse than Shaq at the free throws. What I don't understand is why we are not starting Bynum. Bynum has obviously been our best center thus far into the season, and the guy has been pretty much averaging a double double in limited amount of play. He's certainly better than Kwame Brown, who I'm honestly just sick and tired of, and Chris Mihm, who pretty much looks like a stiff out there on the court.</p>
I'm with Brian...start Bynum, I honestly at times think that Bynum doesn't get enough touches on offense...he has really surprised me this year</p>
