Sign Bynum!

It's his likely best option to play in spurts, 15-ish mpg, and not be counted on to play a huge role.

It'd give the a Blazers a legit post threat and scorer off the bench.

 

I disagree. He's a Scorpio.

 

Exactly

 

Bob Whitsitt, is that you?

 

This...Well said, Hobbs.

 

? ? ?

 

Heart, hell, I question his brain.

lets see..make millions of dollars to play a game, or join Dennis Rodman in the oddities section at Ripleys Believe it or not..

 

I'm in!! I'm a risk taker.

 

Soooo many ways to go with this...... self control.... must...have.... self control.

 

OK say if the Blazers do sign him to a reasonable contract whats the worst that could happen? The heat signed Oden and for what?

 

I was just going for a cheap joke. lol.

Bynum doesn't want to play basketball. I don't want him on this team. The worst that would happen is he'd kill locker room chemistry. He'd get run out of town by either the team, the media, or himself. Take your pick.

 

I don't think Bynum will mess up the chemistry. The Blazers team has been together for long enough.

 

Which is why he'd still get run out. He'd do more harm than good.

 

Ooh, BF is pith-ed off!

EDIT: Thhoulda thaid "BF ith getting pithy!"

 

Does Miami have vet min to offer? Is there a limit? That would be the one place Bynum would really excel in.

 

There already taking a chance on Oden and besides why would they want Bynum? If the Blazers could get Bynum at a reasonable contract till the end of the year it's not a bad risk.

 

I disagree. The guy has negatively impacted every locker room he's been in since turning pro. The chemistry this team has now is a rare thing, and we should be VERY careful about messing with it.

Signing Bynum, even at the smallest possible contract amount, would be a huge gamble. I see it like taking a bet with a one in a hundred chance of hitting that only pays at ten to one.

 

Ever seen that movie Rush? Remember this sceen? Yeah, yeah, he can be a loose cannon. And, yeah, he will drive you all mad, but in terms of raw talent and...and right stuff, there is no better driver in the world. He's the real thing, Teddy. It's what we all came into this for. Nine days out of ten you'll be pulling your hair out, but on that tenth day James will be invincible and that is the day you will wish you had him in your car. You'll never win the championship with Jackie Ickx, you just might with James.
