That's actually what most people hate about him.
He has the elitist attitude without the elite game. He's not as good as his ego seems to think
Average athletically other than a quick first step
Small frame with short-ish arms
Average to below-average shooter
Bad court vision
Lazy defender
The only redeeming quality I've seen in him is the ability to beat his man off the dribble. He's a fantastic ball handler but once he does that, it all falls apart.
I've said many times in many places that he would be a really good PG if he just dedicated himself to that aspect of his game. He's just too busy trying to be a gunner, and he's not good enough to do it
The hell?..
Trouble reading?
I would rather have Marc Gasol than Andrew Bynum.
They have incredibly similar numbers. Don't understand why Bynum would be considered superior.
I'd probably take Gasol at this point too.
SOMEONE will pay for THIS!
Not to mention Marc actually has two knees and no crappy attitude
14 and 9 is the same as 18 and 12?
Bynum is easily the second best center in a game where you can't find dominant big men anymore.
Well when he's healthy I think you're insane if you would take Gasol over him.
I think this is exactly the problem though. People look at him and say "he'd be a really good PG if he could just do x,y, and z." But he's not a PG. He has the physical tools to play the position but he doesn't have that mentality. Any team that drafts him thinking he's going to develop into a great PG is going to be disappointed. Rather than force that fit, you have to just accept what he is, and what he is is a scorer. He needs a coach who can provide discipline and structure, but if allowed to do what he does best can flourish.
.... when is he healthy?
