Bynum's vs LBJ's Apology

Both apologies seem to be a bit late, with LBJ's coming about 10 months late.

Bynum apologized after they were eliminated while LBJ's came in a series win. I think apologizing after beating his nemesis is a whole lot easier to do.

I do think it takes a lot for both of them to come out and apologize and it shows a lot of maturity. But if I had to choose which one I thought was more sincere, I would say Andrew Bynum's was.

For some reason Id rather take LBJ's apology, I know how late it is, but I do feel some sincerity in there.

Had Bynum not gave that shitty interview after the game showing zero remorse for what he did, and then days later issuing an apology, to me is bullshit. I don't buy it, but I don't need to buy it. Still think 5 games isn't enough, but it is what it is. I still think hes a piece of poo.

Well he obviously felt like he had to apologize. And I am sure there were people advising him to do so. He realized how he left Cleveland wasn't the best way to do it. I don't think many people would argue that.

I just think the timing of it was a little off and very convenient to do when he had just won one his biggest series of his career.

I'll be the first one to say I hated the way LeBron went about the whole thing, I thought it was a horrible way to treat his fans and the city. HOWEVER...

You can't even compare these two events.

One was a man, deciding what HE thought was the best route in his career. Hate it or love it, it's his life, and no one was really hurt.

Bynum however, is a thug. He's done this numerous times before to players, and is a outright just dirty player. He even did the typical "thug" action with the shirt removal and all of that crap. So no, I don't believe his apology, but time will tell if he acts like a jerk again. Five games, even though it's 700k, is not enough. I seriously think that when a player does something like this, the first time, it should be a year, again, permanent. People that use a performance enhancer get more suspension in sports it seems, while that IS cheating, it's different than some 7 foot guy taking someone down.

Two different situations.

I'm not condoning what Bynum did but the Mavs weren't winning with the most class and basketball believe it or not is a physical game sometimes. Anyone saying Bynum should be suspended for a year for this is either....

A. A Laker hater

or

B. Asinine....

First, no one is a 'Laker Hater' secondly, that was an intentional hit out of frustration just because the little b*tch wasn't winning? He wouldn't dare hit Lebron or someone his own size like that.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Okay, so answer this one then, since you said you can't answer something you don't think will happen...... You have said numerous times in the past that even though you want them, you don't think Deion will allow us to take his son or Hunter. You then taking Ward #1 over T-Mac just because he's the QB?

      Thanks for that sounds very interesting.   I have a scientific mind usually and don’t believe in wide spread conspiracy theories but with the NBA it’s so obvious.  The fuggin rigged draft is something only an idiot wouldn’t see.  But the NBA is 100% about big market money.  It’s not even a real league.  It’s 10 teams that have a shot.

      This response is absolutely and utterly insane, I've literally this same thing out multiple times in previous posts about mock drafts, like a bunch of times. I've never once denied it's a possibility of them going #1, I've just said that I wouldn't take them there. And YET AGAIN, you're proving that you don't believe they are elite QB prospects, you literally just said "first prospects off the board REGARDLESS OF TALENT" It's literally what I've been saying this whole time, these QB's don't have the draft grades to deserve that pick.  They're only being mocked there because mocks are trying to predict the draft, not saying who deserves to be drafted where.   Dude, this is exactly why I question your reading comprehension skills.  You keep trying to say you got me with something, but in those exact posts you're just proving my points, the literal opposite of catching me in some lie or moment of ignorance.
