You know who you are. Instead of acting like you didn't give up on him after 10 games, maybe you should admint you were wrong in the anti-Big Al thread and let us know how good the crow tastes.
 
Big Al has been playing pretty darn well for the majority of this early season so far. AND, he is seemingly getting better and more comfortable in our system with every game. Keep hating fair weather fans, keep hating... Always looking for something to cry about.
 
Bynum isnt that great of a player. The lakers are better with odum on the floor. The only thing he brings is more rest for Gasol.

The way to beat the Lakers is to stop Gasol and then Kobe becomes a one dementional player. Then you can key on one player instead of an entire team.

Bynum is like Fes and Elson. He is big and any production you get from him is nice.
 
I am impressed that he is starting to score off the offense. His push shot is a thing of beauty when it goes in, but when it doesn't IT IS UGLY! I think he is starting to get in rhythm with Dwill. I am worried that the Jerry will mess up his progression when Memo comes back.
 
Big Al will be fine. He has to learn not just a new system, which he has really never done in his career (not to mention the most obviously complex system in the league), but he has to learn a whole new way of being a team-mate. There is something to be said about him always being "the man" on crappy teams. It isn't that he doesn't or won't lean on his team mates, he has simply never had team mates anywhere near this caliber, and initially he will get lost in things. It was inevitable. But he is working into it. He is a good, talented ball player with a good attitude, and as long as he puts in a solid effort he will learn and grow in the Jazz scheme of things. In the long run his ability to play some defense will separate him from Bozzer, and make us a better team.

....don't know what it is for sure...but Big Al makes us a better team than we had with Boozer. Maybe it's some intangibles....Boozer was a finesse Duke boy....Al is more of a semi-polished school yard kid who looks meaner and plays with more reckless abandon both offensively and defensively. I think he puts more fear in opponents, not because he's talented but he's just someone who will bang with them and not back down? He certainly cares for the ball better than Boozer....and has a much better attitude of wanting to win and not just cash a pay check! He's working hard to blend....Boozer was just interested in his next contract.
