Damn Bynum went down, holding his knee

Can't lie he is enjoyable to watch play...he actually plays like a true center which you don't see anymore. Hopefully he is alright

Bynum injured :(
Sasha Vujacic = The Phail Machine = The Ring Blocker

Trade Sasha before he ruins the Lakers next season.

He was kind of limping on it...I think he will be ok.

You just don't want to see a Livingston type injury, or something that requires Knee surgery like a torn meniscus

?
he was putting no weight at all on it.

my guess is a torn ligament because of the way it was torqued/twisted back and around.

Bynum's injury looked terrible. I think he's out the rest of the season.

Umm, he was putting no pressure on it at all.

He had two Lakers around his arms, and one holding his leg up while going to the locker room.

Looked pretty bad. Hopefully it was nothing more than a hyperextended knee, but I doubt that.

You never know. I've seen guys go down that you think they're out for the year and it's something minor and they're out the week. And I've seen guys walk off on their own feet, it looks like nothing, and it's a torn ACL.

Agh i want to throw up. We just lost second option and post presence. Now we have injury prone useless kwamba which we can't trade now. Kobe will have to shoot more and he isn't in good shape this season. Injury bug taking a huge bite out of lakers.

I feel so bad for Bynum. He was owning once again and now this. Hopefully it is not serious.

Damn I feel bad for Bynum too. I dislike the Lakers (I think that they are WAY overhyped, at least of the last several years, for their performance), but you hate to see good, hard working players go down for injuries. I hope he's allright. Injuries should never be the reason for a lost season. Just ask Houston.

what? nobody said that.

it was....

x-rays negative.

reported that he's still in a great deal of pain. everybody hoping that its just a sprain.

will get an mri tomorrow morning.

i'm pretty convinced it'll be an ACL tear.
