Here's Andrew Bynum who could probably play another five years and make tens of millions and at 26 chucks it away. I'll never understand it.

More to life than money. He wasn't happy with what he was doing.

Being able to play the game, and love it, over rides money, to me at least. However, the opportunity to provide security for your family and yourself is incentive enough. Maybe he will serve the poor, or delve into some higher educational pursuit. Or, maybe not.

The Bynum thing's a power play on both sides. His contract becomes fully guaranteed on Jan. 7th. Both sides want to part ways. Like Simmons said, Bynum will "regain" his love of basketball when he goes to the Clippers or Heat.

I read something that he wasn't even happy playing basketball. Saying that he doesn't even like it.

Demarcus cousins

Lebron said he deserves to be an all star after the game. BOOM

Just looked at the stats. Yea he had a huge game. I agree...I've said it before he deserves to be an all-star. No question in my mind.

Bosh is so clutch. How many game winners does he have this season?

Well...the Heat made up for the loss at Sacramento. Such an impressive win at Portland in a back2back game without 'Bron and coming off a loss in OT.

Very nice game Mr. Flower Forward.

Raps get rid of Rudy Gay and all of sudden they have wins at Dallas, at OKC, and vs. Indiana.

The tank is blown up

If you're tanking, you don't trade Rudy Gay.
