That is why the Magic are also looking for renters besides the Nets, Lakers, and Mavs...
A 6 month rental? That ish kray

Bynum is definitely a better trade piece than Lopez, but lets not act like Bynum is Mr. Dependable. He has injury issues as well.

I don't understand why Lakers fans (especially you) try to downgrade Brook's play and potential. People talk about Bynum's ceiling all the time, yet I never hear anyone say anything about Brook's potential. You know he is a 23 year old center after all. He was set for his break out season this year but that unfortunately has been ruined by an injury.bimmer100 wrote:I still don't understand why nets fans are trying to downgrade bynums play and potential.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Do you honestly believe that the Lakers would've won those 2 titles without Bynum?
Yes, because they were won by Kobe and Pau. Replace Bynum with any average center in the NBA and they still win them.
Since then, though, Bynum has more than surpassed Pau.

ARE YOU KIDDING US RIGHT?? Or you didnt watch the last 4 years of basketball. Bynum was injured in 2008, 2009 and 2010 playoffs, and Pau Gasol did play as a center and PF, fighting basically alone against the Celtics froncourt, and Howard in 2009.
