Bynum tweaks shoulder, no big deal

EL SEGUNDO — Andrew Bynum strained the rotator cuff in his right shoulder during practice but is expected to play Wednesday night against the Clippers. Bynum probably will be able to practice again Tuesday; the injury is considered that minor.

“It’s all right; it’s just a little tight,” Bynum said.

Bynum got his arm bent back when he tried to block a dunk by Chris Mihm.

“It’s just a strain,” Phil Jackson said. “I think he’ll be fine.”

you got to be kidding me, mihm is aggressive at practice but not during the games.

Sounds like he will be ok but we can't afford to lose him this year.

Mihm wants more minutes eh?

Glad it's minor. We don't need Odom's injury party two on our hands. Cuffs are hard healing injuries.

whew...

mihm probably got pissed and tried to do a tonya harding on Bynum.. (Mihm - that's mah money!!).
hehe

That means he'll probably have less minutes during the clippers game.. Mihm will have the chance to play more minutes... hrmmm...

I have torn rotator cuff to and it really fing sucks. It sounds like he will be fine though but watch out to see if he attempts to block shots with his left hand. That is what I have to do now but I dont have the health care he does.
