Flash Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bosh is not greater than Drew, unless you're predicting the future and saying Drew will injure himself (because all of his injuries have been more to blame on other players). Bosh is a better player than Bynum is exactly what I'm saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lkr Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bosh is a better player than Bynum is exactly what I'm saying.seeing as they play two completely different roles, this is an asinine statement. bosh can't bump near as well in the paint as bynum can. besides, dwight has already set he wants to be the guy where he goes, he can't do that in miami.

Owner Real Deal Posted March 7, 2012 Owner Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bosh is a better player than Bynum is exactly what I'm saying.Haha, no. Drew is by far the better defensive player, by far the better rebounder, and he's also the better scorer, commanding more defensive attention. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Haha, no. Drew is by far the better defensive player, by far the better rebounder, and he's also the better scorer, commanding more defensive attention. Lol, he only demands more attention because Bosh plays with LeBron and Wade. Teams have no choice. He's also nowhere near the better scorer. Are you kidding me? This is only the second year Bynum is getting over 15PPG. He's shooting a better % because his shots come much closer to the rim than a lot of Bosh's looks. I'd also hope he puts up better rebounding numbers than Bosh because he's 7 feet tall and isn't playing with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Haslem, 3 excellent rebounders. This Bynum hype this year is so overblown. Dude is a decent center but he's so overrated its crazy. We're hyping this guy up because he's got this "potential" that we've yet to see come out of him. He's the second best center in the league but is that really saying much? Bosh is better player without a doubt. And its not like Bynum is that much younger than him either. Bosh is 27, Bynum is 24 and has a much worse history with injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no I'm not saying he's coming to Miami. I know its not happening, but I do believe Bosh > Bynum and Dwight would have to consider it. Playing with 2 great players, one of them beginning the downside of his career would certainly be attractive. There's a negative 5% chance it happens though lol.

Bosh is 27, Bynum is 24 and has a much worse history with injuries.Bynum is a 7 footer and a shot blocker that can anchor a defense. Bosh is a power forward that doesnt block shots or anchor the middle. Bynum also has a post game, you can throw it to him every time down the floor and get a good shot out of it, unfortunately we just dont have any shooters to space the floor so Bynum sees double teams. Do you think anyones scared of Bosh to double team him? I know youre gonna say Bosh plays with Wade and James, Bynum plays with Pau and Kobe. Let me put it this way, put Bynum on the Heat and remove Bosh teams will still double team Bynum because there is no center in the league (besides Dwight) that can guard him one on one or not get abused in the post. Bynum is twice as valuable as Bosh, because he can protect the rim and command double teams. Bosh, well hes a scoring power forward who doesnt play D. No GM would take Bosh over Bynum, ever. Youre dreaming if you think the Magic would even consider sending Dwight to a rival team in the same state anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) Did you read anything in my post aside from Bosh > Bynum? I said there's no way Dwight would ever come here lol. Bosh is a much more versatile offensive player, and yes he does have a post game. Have you ever watched us play? I'm not talking about who has more value. I'm saying who's the better player. And since when does Bosh not play D? Is this some made up thing to boost your argument? I'll never get majority support in this argument because well, this board is like 80% Laker fans and people who most like hate Miami which is fine, but Chris Bosh > Andrew Bynum.

Bosh is 27, Bynum is 24 and has a much worse history with injuries.Drew demands more attention than Bosh did when he was in Toronto. Sorry. You make a statement about who Bosh is playing with right now, but then you tell me that Bynum is only averaging 16 PPG? Uh... He's shooting a better percentage because he's a better big man. He's rebounding the ball better because he's a better big man. He's a legitimate defensive anchor who is arguably the best defensive player on the Lakers right now. Unless Bosh is a small forward or a guard, that means Drew is better. You can throw out all the excuses you want, but Bosh comes nowhere near Bynum on defense, and Bynum is tougher to stop on the offensive end. The Heat would trade Bosh's skinny ass for Drew in a heartbeat...and then they would go on and win an NBA championship, easily. You can go ahead and make your comparisons between Bosh and Gasol, but don't bother putting Bosh against Drew. If we really did trade Gasol for Rondo, you'd see just how nasty Bynum could be as a second scoring option, and it would make the Toronto Bosh look worse than you think.

YugoRocketsFan Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bosh is definitely better than Bynum, thats all I am gonna say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we really did trade Gasol for Rondo, you'd see just how nasty Bynum could be as a second scoring option, and it would make the Toronto Bosh look worse than you think. 1. Bynum is not some defensive "anchor". He's a good defender. Bosh is a great defensive PF especially further away from the basket and even moreso guarding the pick and roll. I don't think you'll find too many big guys who hedge better than Bosh does. They're different types of defenders but I don't see Bynum as this defensive force you're talking about. 2. Logic will tell you that he shoots a higher % because 99% of his shots come from within 5 feet of the basket. Its not rocket science. Same thing goes for his rebounding for a 7 foot center. 3. Bosh is scoring more and he's playing with LeBron and D Wade, yes I'm definitely going to make that a point in this. Bosh could easily be averaging around 24, 25 points on a team where he's the second option or the leading guy. Not only that, but he's a more versatile offensive player. I don't know how this is even debatable. 4. And lol @ skinny ass. When in doubt, hate on the other player to make your case. I'm completely shocked though, the Laker fans are saying Bynum and the one neutral fan so far is saying Bosh.

Flash Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bynum good, Bosh great made me laugh. I probably used a poor choice of words there. I'm not saying Bosh is an elite defensive PF but he's very good defensively for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Bosh is not a plus defender. I'm not a big advanced stats guy (if that even is one) so once the guys who are into that shit see this thread I'll let them address it. That being said, Bosh is no slouch on defense. Like I said above he's a very good defender along the perimeter for a big guy and his pick and roll defense has become one of the best in the league since he's gotten to Miami because we emphasize it so much. Offensively, I don't know how its even possible to think Bynum is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 The Rockets and Warriors continue to be open to landing Howard in a rental deal, hoping they could persuade the All-Star center to stay beyond the six-week finale to the season. http://www.cbssports.com/nba/story/17664419/postups-freeagent-frenzy-or-lack-thereof-all-hangs-on-howard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Universe Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 I'd much rather have Bosh over Bynum on my team and I like Bosh as much as I like sticking needles into my testicles. Gonna be interesting to see what teams do. If Dwight gets traded it'll be neat to see the moves teams use to counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRT Spidey Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Hope he goes to a relatively good small market team like Golden State, Phili, Phoenix or something along those lines. I know it won't happen though. If he was traded to LA i would be quite aggravated.. : / Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
