Tank move: Andrew Bynum

Miami can make the worst GM moves of all time, just because they signed LeBron along with Chris Bosh.

Seriously could probably put a bunch of 40 year old vets on that team and they'd still make it to the NBA finals.

I'm not sure that's specific to Miami. You could probably put a DLeague team in the east and they'd stand a reasonable chance of making it to the finals.
 
Come on, Gramps. My dad's over 60 and even he's on board with the tank. This season we didn't even field a roster. If we actually went out and got real role players, in addition to Burke, Hayward, Kanter and Favors, coupled with Jabari, and perhaps a coach who can coach, you don't think we'd be more competitive than we are now?

I never said the tanking idea was age specific. My rants against, draw many who disagree with me but also a surprising number who "like" my posts though they would never say so on the board. Last two sentences i agree with completely. Question is why! I think it likely that bean counter Greg Miller did this. He doesn't have his father's vision. Or his competitive spirit when it comes to sports.

Like I said..... sit burks, burke, hayward, favors, and kanter during crucial tank games.

Why not just dress three players and forfeit all those games? Even better, don't even fly out for the away ones. Save money and gas.

You don't really believe there's any integrity left to maintain in sports, do you?
 
There's no reason to trade Burks period! I could see the the Cavs do this with out Burks. You don't trade a 22 year old that has Burks potential that hasn't had a chance to start. I bet OKC is kicking themselves for trading Harden. I'm not saying Burks will be as good, but Burks is shooting better and has a lot of Harden in his game. I don't think anyone invisioned Harden being this good with Houston.

Burks will join the elite of Robert Whaley, CJ Miles, Jeremy Evans, Eric Maynor, Raul Neto, et al. who may not be bad players, but are over hyped and overvalued for how little value they actually bring.

Because Dan Gilbert is a racist and this will rid him of at least one big black man from off the payroll.
 
I doubt they trade him. Most likely they cut Bynam to avoid having to guarantee most of his deal. No reason to give up assets when he'll be available soon regardless. That said, I don't want Andrew Bynam anywhere near Kanter, Favors or Gobert. The team can tank without poisoning the locker room. Just deal Marvin and Jefferson and the tank is back on strong IMO.
