Sounds like a pretty big weakness to me if he can't even play for a full season.


precisely why i can't wait to ship him to orl for d12.
Warspite:

Prince + filler for Kobe Bryant
To be honest the way Prince has played and with Kobes injury/age/mileage Im not sure I would do that deal either. Still Prince is more important and he wins the head to head battles with Kobe.

I guess Nene isn't on the Nuggets?


I think his true agenda is to talk down Bynum while also making himself feel better about his injured and inferior C in Brook Lopez.

Exactly. It was one of the reasons I didn't panic like a little girl when Odom was dealt away, because I knew it would free up opportunities for Drew.

If Bynum weren't wearing purple and gold, most of these posters would congratulate him for being healthy and having a good game just like Grant Hill for instance.

But since he's on the Lakers, the cynicism permeates through the season's greetings.

Happy New Year Everyone!

That's the smart move for the Lakers. All these Laker fans thinking that Bynum is better will be eating their words once Bynum collapses onto the floor halfway through the season.

dude really? Bynum is a beast, he is the reason for winning against the "mentally tough" celtics in 2010, and the lack of him was the reason for the lakers losing in 2008

Great game, I expect a 25 and 12 game tomorrow during the rematch tomorrow. All-Star starter A-bomb.

Just stop dude you're embarrassing yourself.

And who are you to analyze his "mental and physical toughness" ?

Drew is about as physical as they come at the 5 spot.

Again just stop, seems like something asinine comes out your mouth weekly.

Let it go. Go back to the nets board. Go worry about lopez becOming Yao with that foot injury or keeping deron away from Dallas. Andrew is a much more potent center than Lopez can ever dream of becoming.

Is that how they do it in LA? Full thug? I didn't know drug dealers and muggers were smart enough to use computers.

Or are you one of those kids whose never been to LA but bandwagons them anyways?

08 season waves hi to you.

2009 season: 8 rpg in 29 minutes
2010 season: 8.3 rpg in 30 minutes
Does he have the potential to be a great rebounder? Absolutely but he isn't one because he goes to sleep on the glass for long stretches during the season. Same reason why isn't a top 5 DPOY candidate every year even though he should be. Bynum gets his okay rebounding numbers because he's tall, not because he actually goes and chases boards consistently. Even his Per 36 numbers are pedestrian which is also irrelevant since Bynum isn't capable of playing big minutes
