Can someone give an honest description of Andrew Bynum game, currently?
Does it resemble anyone game currently or in the past?

Re: Andrew Bynum
Bynum does not resemble any past great players, and there is not one area where he excels over his peers. What impresses me though is he doesn't have any particular weaknesses opponents can exploit. As long as he doesn't have to go against Celtics/Spurs level of team defense he can score 14-16 with high accuracy. Right before he got injured he has shown a variety of post moves, he has good footwork and a soft touch around the basket. Even if he doesn't have the benefit of Kobe drawing double teams he can still sustain a 53-55% FG because he's fundamentally sound. In past years, a knock on him was his lack of fitness and his inability to stay out of foul trouble, he's now an able defender who can rotate to help, impose his size against opposing centers, and play pick'n'roll defense better than most centers I have observed. I can't emphasize the last point enough because when Bynum is on the floor very rarely do defensive assignments get switched. Since his absences, I see at least 3 to 4 switchs from picks on each possession that resulted in opposing 1s abusing the hell out of Lamar and Vlad.
His strength isn't being the best at something, it's being good at everything.
