Wow! I never realized how bad that guy actually was until I just watched those 3 videos. That's some of the worst most flagrant, classless stuff I've ever seen. That guy needs a long suspension and a promise of a season long suspension if he ever does it again. That guy doesn't belong in the NBA. If he ever gets paid back the same way, no one will care if he's the one withering around on the floor in pain.

I am only wondering why Mavs didn't come after Bynum after that.  I guess I am glad they didn't because it could have been very ugly, but I am surprised.  The violence of the Bynum hit was senseless and should have insensed Barrea's teammates.

I'm glad they didn't retaliate...Lakers were about to be eliminated from the playoffs and the Mavs were moving on to WCF...no use in earning suspensions in a game like this. Save it for a regular season game next year. ;)

What i find absolutly disturbing beyond belief is the notion that the commentators/news crew "understands" why he would do that.

Just look at the commentary in the vid Roy posted, Andrew Bynum has nothing to do with the legacy of the Lakers, that legacy was earned by others and that somehow makes it understandable that he would do something like that again?

Andrew Bynum should not be viewed in that light, he should be absolutly trashed by anyone and everyone for being what he is, a classless coward that is absolutly doing nothing else but tarnishing the image of the Lakers and to a certain extend Kobe Bryant.

Will anything happen? not likely.. he will be back next season and act like he regrets what he has done and everything will be forgot'en.

Since this is the 3rd time he has done something like this I hope the NBA would suspend him more than 10 games. In the end I believe he will get 5-10. If I had my way he would be out of the NBA. This was another deliberate attempt to injure and that junk does not belong in any organized sport.

After seeing the other two clips, I think Bynum definitely deserves 10, and will get at least 5.  He has a record, and he embarrassed the league a little with that move in such a high-profile game.  Have to wait and see.

Although, I was very happy to see Kenny Smith refuse to talk about that hit, on the grounds that it was letting the Lakers off the hook for stinking it up for the rest of the game.  Let's see if SportsCenter follows suit.

Listen to this interview.. Bynum is SO disrespectful. I'd hope he apologizes to J.J. Barea.

It's obvious that Bynum has a problem.  Have a feeling the league will come down hard on him - and deservedly so.

Has Mark Cuban said anything publicly yet?  I'm sure he'll toss out an opinion or two....

Watch the video again, both game commentators IMMEDIATELY condemned him. One even said it was the most bush league thing he'd ever seen. And as much as I detest Kobe Bryant, he looked disgusted immediately after the play and was honest in his disapproval of it in his post-game presser, even supposedly speaking with Barea after the game and apologizing for Bynum's behavior.

Bynum's comments were ridiculous afterward and showed that he has no understanding of the seriousness of that foul. Barea could've been badly injured. Given his history of trying to harm players (because that's what it is at this point), the league needs to come down hard on him.

He should be suspended half a season for that kind of thing, possibly more.

Bynum's forearm to the ribs was a cheap shot, no doubt. The thing  I dont understand is how a small guy like Rondo can drive the hoop and someone like D.Howard can supposeldy make a play on the ball and send Rondo crashing to the floor, from an elevated position, and not be hit with a flagrant?

RJ87, I agree with you the commentators seemed disgusted. Also I heard the same thing re Kobe and the Lakers.

According to a retweet by hollinger:

JJ Barea said Kobe & other Lakers checked how was doing after game & apologized for Bynum cheap shot.
