I probably should have not watched that highlight clip just now... :lol:

Holy hell this kid is explosive. His skill set has superstar written all over him. I also hope we are lucky enough to nab him when he is eligible for the draft.

Just imagine how "good" we'd have been if we could have kept them both AND traded for Lamar Odom.

Happy retirement, Keyon. Going to miss that fight he had with Ray Ray. Then there's this:

I'm looking forward to seeing how the Sixers do this coming year. Bynum could be a dark horse MVP candidate if he stays healthy and the sixers finish top 4 in the East. However, it will probably be more likely that the sixers finish sixth or so. I see Bynum putting up monster numbers this year.

Man, I would have loved to have Bynum on our team. But I guess that Rob really wanted Al Harrington.

That right there is just epic. I also like to see what the Wizards can do with a front line of Okafor and Nene with Wall at the point.

Bynum will put up massive numbers, but the fact that he's still having treatment on his knees is a pretty good indicator of the risk factor involved. Given that Kobe, Hill and others have had good results from this recent procedure bodes well for Bynum, but when you're franchise is starting from scratch, why make the first move a perpetual risk?

I'm going to enjoy watching Bynum assert himself this season. Will be nice to see some good big man battles between him and Dwight.
