I've never questioned this kids heart. Wish him nothing but the best...

Thanks for the years of good service Bynum. If it wasn't for those knees you'd probably still have on purple and gold...

Hey at least your still a 2x champion, oh and rich....

until d deal becomes official. he's still a laker

Somebody's trying to jinx the trade... Won't mention any names... lol

I haven't seen any official trade

Decent kid who means well. Wish him success and happiness in his future endeavors. Enjoyed his 2 month stretch in 2008 more than any of his all-star caliber seasons later. If we had that guy back the past couple years we may have gone a little farther. I respect the fire he showed working hard to get better after being traded by Kobe during the 2007 summer.

Thanks for the years Drew.

Someone lock this please

I seriously love Andrew Bynum. He has been my 2nd favorite player since about 2006 when he dunked on Shaq. He is only like a year older than me and I feel like we have grown up together since I have watched him since he was 17!!!

I do admit that I wanted him traded a lot early on because he was our best chip and I was afraid of watching Kobe's prime go to waste, but I fell in love with his game in 07/08 and once we got Pau Gasol I knew we would be dominant because of them. Even though he got hurt during both title runs, I loved that he played injured in the playoffs in 09 and 10 and that really said a lot about his character and showed how dedicated he is. Hell, his improvement from his rookie year to his sophomore year to his huge jump in his third year says a lot about his dedication.

I will never forget how excited this board got when he dominated January in 08 and 09 (before he got injured lol) those were great times and it was so fun to watch him grow and beast on everybody.

Unfortunately, sometimes good players get traded for better players. Sucks that Bynum won't play his entire career with the Lakers, but good luck in Philadelphia and I enjoyed watching you play very much, big fella.

i would expect a thread like this from wafer88, but not you. c'mon.

As a Sixers fan, I'm pretty excited, and stunned Orlando didn't want to take him back, but whatever. **** em

Best of luck with Dwight!

You guys get off LA Warrior, this thing is done. If the media has their hands on it and can give details it's a lock.

So every media outlet can report it but i make an appreciation thread and I'm "the jinx" ?

Great pick up for the Lakers, this has to make you the #1 Pre-Season choice to win it all.
I guess the city of Los Angeles will loose a ton of money now the cops can't fine Bynum for speeding.
Realistically, the Lakers were the only place that D12 could go and Mitch did a great job pulling this off.
This puts my team, the Clippers once again looking up to the Lakers in the standings. Still. I think this is as great pick up for the NBA in general

Hope he has a long and successful career. I will follow his progress.

I loved watching him let it rip before the surgeries.

Having said that, those 3 pointers and missed huddles don't seem very smart now do they? Hope he learnt his lesson to not diss his profession or the franchise that's been so good for him.

Good Luck Big fella, will definitely miss seeing you in the Purple & Gold.

And that trade was completed so that bodes well for this one

The most exciting regular season/non game winner 2 points ever scored:

I was at the Galaxy/Real madrid game last week. Drew was apparently there too.

.....That's the end of my story, lol.

That is one of my most cherished Laker moments. Gonna miss watching Bynum develop, best of luck to him.

i always like him, im pretty sure he will be 20/12 C pretty soon..

that guy has talent, & honestly i always secretly pray Bynum will stay during this Howard saga.
