but I'd take'em over Bonner!

[sook]

Wow..he couldn't even catch the fucking ball today. It reminded me a lot of...i shouldn't say this...








Kwame Brown.


Seriously though what is up with him? Have teams figured him out?

[Ghazi]

Only time will tell, he is only 21 and if he pans out was worth the contract.

[sonic21]

lakers w/o Bynum = spurs w/o manu lol

i guess the lakers should pay Mbenga 10M too

[hhml]

^ she looks like a life sized doll.

[KSeal]

Thank god the last year is a team option. I'm hoping him being fresh off a sever MCL tear has something to do with his play.

[HarlemHeat37]

Bynum is distraught from his girl's nude pictures being leaked out..

[lil_penny]

shoulda got insured, geico for they monnneyyyyy

[nhan]

Where's Allanon now? He said at the beginning of the season Andrew Bynum was a Top 25 Player. LMAO.

[Matchman]

dead serious, Kwame is better than Bynum now. Kwame plays tough defense in the post, rebounds and blocks shots

[ElNono]

I still remember all the 'If Bynum comes back, we're sweeping all the way to the NBA Finals'. :lol
Shannon Brown is the next player bound to be overrated by Laker fans. He is good, but I bet he'll be declared the next Magic by next February.

Well Ariza is already the new Michael Cooper...

[Jacko]

He has been disappointing, but I know what he's capable of when he's healthy and has confidence in his game. Right now he has neither and he's stuck trying to get both of them back in the midst of the playoffs. Not an easy task.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

But, but, but he's been working with Kareem Abdul Jabbar on his post moves!!!!

[crc21209]

Andrew Bynum is slowly but surely becoming a uhhh oh bust!

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Well Ariza is already the new Michael Cooper...

Ariza = Cooper
Bynum = Kareem
Brown = Magic
Odom = Worthy
Kobe = MJ
Gasol = Tim Duncan

2010 Lakers = 80 WIN ECSTASY!!!

[Indazone]

Bynum = Kelvin Cato

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Bynum = Kelvin Cato

If we want to compare him to an ex-Laker big, Elden Campbell is a safe bet :lol

[Indazone]

lol @ Elden Campbell

[j-money24]

Bynum sucks so much, i never believed in him, i knew he would suck but not suck this much, wow I'd rather have Scalabrine instead of him right now.

[monosylab1k]

Oden > Bynum

[monosylab1k]

[DPG21920]

Bynum still has a shot to be very good. He just needs to stay healthy. If he gets his mind right and pays attention to rebounding and defense he can be very good. His offense is already much more polished than Dwight's.

[j-money24]

Oden > Bynum

Anyone is better than Bynum right now

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

His offense is already much more polished than Dwight's.

Having more polish on offense than Dwight is like having a bigger dick than Ghazi.

[ElNono]

That's a lot of if's for a guy that already got paid and doesn't matter one bit if he plays hard or sits in the bench. I bet you he'll have a career year his next contract season.

[Laker-fan-in-SanAnto]

His head is not in the game! Maybe Kobe was right. They shouldve traded him. He just needs to trust his knee. Seems like he's playing scared of another injury.

[Cry Havoc]

Bynum does not have the right attitude to presently succeed in the NBA right now. He's a party-fiend, arrogant, and does not ever seem to have his head in the game.

I'm not writing Bynum off just yet, as he's got potential in the pretty distant future if he decides to actually focus on basketball. But right now he seems to be concerned with showing off how much money he has at clubs.

[iggypop123]

Oh man he's one arrogant little shit. He's always got this "Excuse me, I'm Andrew Fucking Bynum, I'm better than you, stop making me look bad with your effort" look on his face.

[DPG21920]

It is more a health thing than a skill thing. He was balling for the past two years before the injuries.

[IronMexican]

He was playing great before the injury. He's playing like a pussy now. Oh well. Hopefully he can get his shit together next year, cause I doubt it happens this year.

[Indazone]

The big man I am most impressed with is Al Jefferson who modeled his game after Hakeem Olajuwan. He's a beast.

[Cry Havoc]

[DPG21920]

Al is a terrible defender though. Great offensive game.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

It's possible with his playoff performance that Bynum's too soft mentally. If he doesn't grow up, he'll be a bust and a waste of money.
He thinks he automatically will be a super-star or was talking as if he has something prove back in January. That's why in-games he's more focused on offense, and doesn't stick with helping out on defense and rebounding when his offense isn't needed.

It's obvious he can't respond well if his minutes are curtailed and he has some weird reaction to Phil's lineup adjustments or whatever game plan that doesn't use Bynum on O. He pouts. I remember not too long ago he had the audacity to question Phil Jackson. :lol He's a stupid man-child.

[N4th4n]

It is more a health thing than a skill thing. He was balling for the past two years before the injuries.

Bynum was good for about 35 games last year and about 30 this year. Jerome James has had about that many productive games.

[DPG21920]

Ya, he got hurt. That tends to slow people down.

[Ghazi]

DIdn't Bynum talk about 70 wins last year?

70 win ecstasy!!!! :smokin

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Oh man he's one arrogant little shit. He's always got this "Excuse me, I'm Andrew Fucking Bynum, I'm better than you, stop making me look bad with your effort" look on his face.

True that.

He's basically Amare Stoudemire only 4 inches taller. They both have the exact same excuse, "My knee injury somehow prevents me from playing defense or rebounding......with that said, it still allows me to be a black hole on offense."

And they both do seem annoyed whenever a less talented player actually gives an effort against them as if that player is supposed to just let them score.

[Jacko]

Bynum is only 21.

He came into the league extremely raw and is still very raw.

Personally I've always thought that we won't see this kid's potential until he is about 23-24. It's too early to say anything definitively about him.

That's the thing. If he was sucking because he was giving effort and making a bunch of mental gaffes that just result from not being experienced, that's completely acceptable, even expected. Howard snagging that floater that was obviously going to miss tonight for a goaltending call is just misdirected effort and something he definitely won't do when he's 28.

However, Bynum's shortcomings seem to result from having a horrible attitude combined with a relatively poor work ethic.

Also, if we won't see his potential until he's 24, how do you explain the next three years on his contract? That's an enormous sum of money to pay a "project player".

[Lebron4MVP]

The injury card doesnt pass for Bynum right now. He isnt playing with his mind and heart.

[wireonfire]

Bynum, just like Oden, still has a chance to one of the top centers in the NBA. I see him, Oden and Howard being the top three centers down the road, barring injury and if they all work hard on their game.

Bynum is more offense oriented among the three, Howard is more defensive, with Oden being in the middle. Oden is the strongest and the biggest, Howard the most athletic. Howard dominates and puts up great numbers partly because he plays in the east while NBA's most top low post players are in the west, Yao, Shaq, AJ, Duncan, Oden, Bynum.

[VI_Massive]

I think he still gets a pass because of the injury. He's trying to play with and against guys who have been playing together for six months. That can't be easy. He surely could be doing better than he is, but he's certainly no bust.

There is no way that Oden is stronger than Howard. I might put money on Howard benching more weight than anyone in the NBA. Maybe LeBron or Baby Davis could give him a run, that's about it.

Do you have any credible sources here or just blowing smoke? I ask because everything i have read says hes very coachable and puts in a lot of time and that his attitude and work ethic are quite good.

The fact that he's SUCKING on the court isn't enough proof that he's not improving his skillset?

The guy missed two months of play with a severe MCL tear, chill the fuck out with the hate, I know you have nothing better to do but hate on the Lakers but seriously go watch your Spurs championship DVD's or something. Yes he is playing like shit, and a ton of that is cause he's scared to death of getting his knee raped again by a rapist going for a lay up. It's going to take him time to trust his knee and get used to playing in traffic again. Bynum sucks ass right now but having a fucking field day because a 21 year old playoff newbie fresh off a serious knee injury is struggling is more pathetic then the guys play itself. Now respond with your ignorant hate..

[Def Rowe]

The way I remember it this season, Bynum sucked in November, got better in December, and was dominating by January. 42 point game, etc... I think he needs a month to get into his flow. Until then he won't be much of a factor.

[Riverwalkman]

So Scola should pay 20M...

"You know how big a guy would have to be to crush a guy like that? Fuckin' huge."

In terms of bench press, its normally harder for guys with long arms. Dwight has massive shoulders and ripped arms, but hes still physically lean and long. I think there would be quite a few guys in the league who could bench more than Dwight. Shorter, stockier guys like a LeBron, or a Shannon Brown even.

http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-pre-draft-measurements/measurements.php?year=All&sort2=DESC&draft=&pos=&sort=10

If you see that, most cases its guys under 6'8" with stocky builds who dominate the bench press.

[flamingdts]

When the Rockets are without a center and the up-coming "best center" of the league can't even score a point and grab more than two rebounds something is wrong.

Bottomline is, he is arrogant and is getting whats coming to him. He claimed he wanted Yao in the series, but so far has done nothing against him that showed Bynum was determined. If Bynum is not ready, he should prepare. The intensity in playoffs is a few times higher than regular season, but Bynum at his young age probably thinks he can easily stomp over the series.

One can still make the arguement with Bynum's age, but it only works so much. If he keeps getting hurt and misses the playoffs or plays horribly for the playoffs, whats the point? Regular seasons don't mean anything, Playoffs get you somewhere. You can have 20 wins more than another team in the regular season but they can still beat you in 7 games or less.

[z0sa]

[DrHouse]

You people are so stupid.

The kid is just coming off a fucking MCL tear in the middle of the playoffs.

It's funny how you haters are nowhere to be found when the kid is actually playing well, but come out when he's obviously hurting and not in 100% physical shape.

Simply put you don't put up the numbers Bynum has if you are a bust. DPG is the only person here with ANY sense.

If he's not 100%, why the hell are the Lakers playing him? Do they really need the 2 rebounds that badly that they're putting a 21 year-olds health on the line? What if he overdoes it and re-injures himself?

I already said he's got potential down the road. Did you not read that? But why would you even give him minutes when he's playing like this?

This is true. Dwight could only bench 185 coming into the NBA. He's put on a lot of muscle since entering but his lank prevents him from ever benching a ton. A bulkier big man with shorter arms and probably less athleticism Eric Dampier or Kurt Thomas would be able to out bench him.

[Showtime24 LAKERS]

Is Bynum back? looks like it

he's just warming up, if the snow ball keeps rolling...it'll get bigger, stronger...faster...

It's definitely a Bynum sighting

[KSeal]

Bynum got set up by his teammates early and got a few dunks, that's why he had a good game, he needs to get going early. Hope he keeps his play up!

[Methenysz]

Why do you people talk bout bynum when joe smith is getting paid 10 million thats what we should be discussing

[Jacko]

Damn that Bynum kid....what a bust.

I mean 14 pts. 8 rebounds, on 6 shots? Useless.

[Killakobe81]

If bynum gives us what we got tonight we gonna be nothing nice to deal with...
I think we should of waited after this year to sign him maybe we get a discount due to his injury but i do think he will 20 10 center in the NBA ...I dont see Kareem or shaq type numbers even after Kobe is gone but if he adds 2 blocks and a steal i would take that plus he will hit at least 75% of his FT's

[024]

rockets have no center. they don't even have mutombo anymore.

[Cry Havoc]

Damn that Bynum kid....what a bust.

Wow, against a team with it's two starting centers done for the year. Go Bynum! This is a breakout game for him! It must be tough to find a guy who will grab 8 boards and draw some fouls for $14,000,000 a year. :lol

It must be tough to spend your entire life hating a team that will forever own you in the post season.
