Perfect - thanks for clarifying.

This whole thing was obviously Crash's fault because he is "prone to this stuff".

Your doing it again. I expect this from people new to the board who like the fights but from U? Come on
If I said it was all Crash's fault then why would I have said Bynum SHOULD be suspended? Stop trying to take a sentence and try to twist it. I am saying Bynum wasn't trying to put anybody in the hospital.

Since your a Mod and I don't remember fighting with you on other topics and being a mod must mean your a good poster I am just gonna have to not talk in this thread anymore.
I dont like enemies or fights.

Slam not picking fights, your just writing stupid stuff...... Your two posts say this is all Crash's fault, firstly because maybe he asked for for Bynum to slam him with an elbow and shoulder, and then secondly, it's his fault because Crash is prone to this stuff.. It amazes me how this incident can't be Bynum's fault. Okay, he never intended to seriously harm Crash, but I do believe by the actions of Bynum that the intent to stop and foul crash was there.

It's the same as a fatal car crash. Your driving your gf home on a cold winter night, your speeding as you want to get home for a 'quickie' You lose control and hit a tree killing your gf. You didn't intend to hit the tree, nor did you intend to kill your gf, but your actions let to the incident occurring. So, with your thinking, it's not your fault you were speeding, it's partly the tree's fault as to stupidity decided to grow there, and it's the weather's fault for being a miserable night, and it's also the cars fault as it was built to go over the speed limit. I just wish people would stick there hands up and be accountable for there actions... (That's a big work rant)...

Next thing your be writing it was a act of god and that he was hit by a sudden and mysterious lightning bolt, so it's the lightning bolts fault.

Why just you say "I don't believe Bynum had any intend to put Crash into hospital, he had intend to foul him and stop him getting to the rim and his acts where reckless and dangerous".

Really? I said it's all Crash's fault? Show me the word All.
So if it's all Crashs fault why did i say Bynum should be suspended. Kind of a contridiction huh?

going to the game thread.

The fact that you haven't just said "wow that's not what I meant, it was obviously all Bynum's fault" is already crazy. Crash drove on an open lane, and a player with no chance to do anything smashed him with an elbow. This is not debatable.

Fine, okay, you didn't use the word 'all'...... granted...... No one is 'prone' to broken ribs and a collapsed lung.

I agree that Bynum never intended to seriously harm Crash, but Bynum should be held accountable for his actions. Bynum's and Bynum's alone (okay, you could blame Kobe for his s**t defence on the play) action cause the injuries sustained to Crash. Bynum doesn't commit the reckless act, Crash scores two, no foul, no broken ribs, no collapsed lung, game continues, maybe we win maybe we lose, simple.

Bynum smashes Crash, and let's be honest, it was more than a 'hard foul', Crash is now out for a while, with broken ribs and a collapsed lung. Bynum chose to foul Crash, and chose to foul him in a way that caused harm to Crash.

See the difference.

Even better, rather than taking the easy way out, Bynum tries to block the shot (which in part is what he is paid to do) - and does, and it becomes one of the plays of the year.

Like I said days ago, I'd bet money you'd never ever see EO50 or Crash commit that sort of foul. If they were in the position Bynum was in, they would try to block the shot clean 100 out of 100 times.

Although the lung has re-inflated, the physician felt it would be an unnecessary risk for Wallace to fly cross-country so soon after the injury.

Post #112 » by **fatlever** » Tue Feb 3, 2009 9:10 pm

I second that, when he plays with more recklessness he is out of this world.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Charlotte Bobcats don't expect top scorer Gerald Wallace to return until sometime after this month's All-Star break as he recovers from a partially collapsed lung and broken rib.

good news that they are talking like it will be for only a few more weeks and not something that could end his season.

Well he can play with recklessness and still be inside of the team concept. I guess I'm just saying if he feels like he's protected now after all of these injuries, he is more likely to dive a little extra, jump a little higher, run a little faster, etc. it seems. Just being theoretical here.

Been reading up on what has been said.

Crash has had a real downer of a season- losing 2 relatives and now this. He should take it easy with that lung business. Getting up and down will be a REAL pain for quite a while. I'm sorry that he is going through this, but on the bright side, he will come back rested for the stretch run.

Now to address the Bynum part of this equation. I know he is now injured. I won't comment on the "karma" part of this, but I personally don't wish him any ill will. We too may one day have a player on the Bobcats who makes a similarly dumb play, hurting another team's star player at a critical point in the season. It could happen. But what I want to address is the mind-set that Bynum will have when he returns to action. Will he be the same player? Or will this turn of events work on his mind in a bad way, turning him from "promising" to merely an average big. Two years, two knee injuries. Caused another player a serious injury. Not such a good way to go out with a bum knee.

I hope that both Crash and Bynum will keep their spirits up. Quick recovery demands a good attitude. I know that Crash won't change his game, but with Bynum being a young big, he needs to come back determined to learn how to work the defensive area better. I thought I heard that Kareem was coaching him- maybe instead of offensive moves, he needs to straighten out the defensive game to the point where he doesn't commit flagrant fouls when he is beaten by a smaller guy. Maybe he should be watching a ton of game film, or Better Basketball disks, or picking Kareem's brain for tips on keeping good defensive position. But the bottom line is, if he keeps making that kind of hard foul, he won't have a good reputation in the league. Which leads to the fouls going the other way, etc. I hope that he will dedicate himself to make his game better. It will be good for all of us real basketball fans.

I hope both players will be back soon. Claw on Bobcats!
