This franchise has to do something. 90210 was still goin' last time the Bulls were relevant. Yup, s*** made a comeback a few years ago when the Bulls had the best record in the NBA and some experts were picking them to win a title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willard Decker Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 07:57 PM) Nice to see Anthony Bennett playing a little better. Unlike guys like Kwame and Bargnani, I think there's legitimate talent there. I agree. He has several areas in which he needs to improve but has the potential to be a much better player than he's shown to this point. His lack of conditioning is a problem- as are his exercise-induced asthma and obstructive sleep apnea- but he's not blame for Cleveland's decision to select him as the number-one overall pick. The Cavaliers front-office is a disaster. Bennett playing better doesn't change that. --Captain Decker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willard Decker Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 More Cleveland Cavaliers news for anyone who's interested. It seems that the reason for Andrew Bynum's suspension has been leaked. I'm surprised the Pacers wanted him, though I think they signed him so that Miami wouldn't. --Captain Decker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willard Decker Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 QUOTE (kevo880 @ Feb 12, 2014 -> 03:55 PM) He's turned into such a headcase. Not too long ago he was going to be the next "big thing" in LA. There have always been signs of his immaturity, but he's gotten worse as he's spent more and more time away from basketball due to injury. I can understand the theory behind Indiana signing him, as they keep him away from Miami in the event that he decides he wants to play basketball (seriously) again. But they're in danger of repeating the disaster that was Ron Artest: Bynum may be even more difficult to control than Metta World Peace. --Captain Decker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willard Decker Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 ^Interesting. The irony of the situation described in that article is that it's actually happened before (note who's on the sidelines for the Lakers).

This was just goofing around in practice (not to minimize, just to explain that they're quite different scenarios). Different situations, but the principle players are the same (Bynum and Brown). Without knowing exactly what happened in practice that day, I'd guess Brown probably decided he'd seen enough of Bynum for one lifetime. --Captain Decker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
