Since nothing ever goes wrong for the Lakers, I wouldn't be surprised if Bynum never plays basketball again. It's just the way the universe works.
http://www.libertyballers.com/2012/1...injured-sixersGot an email yesterday from someone saying the Andrew Bynum knee injury isn't healing like it should. Started worrying. This morning, it went public. Now I've already thrown out all my clothes and I'm thinking about a move to Eurasia, if such a place exists.But let me pump the breaks and actually read the article first.
94WIP’s Howard Eskin says that he is "getting the sense there is a more serious injury with Andrew Bynum’s knee than the Sixers are telling us. I will go as far as saying I think the Lakers may have given the Sixers damaged goods."Well there are a few things here. Howard, despite my platonic relationship with his son, is a shock jock placed on this world to stoke the fire, cause my eyes to roll uncontrollably, and get into fights with Charlie Manuel. His opinions are silly and I actively pay no attention to them. Bynum, as we knew, was not in perfect health but wasn't 2005 Jamal Mashburn either.
But Howard does have sources, infinitely more than I do, and seeing as this is the second person I've heard this from, I'm growing extremely concerned that this could be a longer thing. Ryan Howard and Chase Utley were supposed to be back by Opening Day and they sat for half the year. I do not want that to happen with Bynum, obviously.
I suppose the only potential benefit of this is the knowledge that they're not rushing him back. His long-term health is paramount to any additional success this season, despite the looming maximum contract on the horizon. I would rather five and a half great years of Bynum than six injured ones.
Here's the statement the Sixers issued directly to me:
The Sixers issued a status update on Andrew that detailed the situation, precautionary measures and a timeline which has not changed at this time.
So nothing surprising there. My advice to Andrew's Knees (pictured above): rest. Now I'm off to readBrandon's Bynum preview which will not make me cry.
Since nothing ever goes wrong for the Lakers, I wouldn't be surprised if Bynum never plays basketball again. It's just the way the universe works.

I hated to let Bynum go and everybody was telling me that he would not have another injury & surpass Howard. You don't become the greatest GM by listening to some quack docs from Portland, I took one look at the kids knee and pulled the trigger on the Howard deal.
Was it a move to send the 76ers damaged goods? No - it was a Mitch move.
average alt account tbh
so true
Person who made that video can't count.
Pot calling the kettle a darky tbh
You forgot about this
I'd also say Kobe raping a chick wasn't good for them either
It's the Sixers fault they decided to dip into the D12 trade... Now the Lakers and Nuggets get much better
Kobe raping a chick didn't hurt them either. He put up some crazy games after spending the day in a Colorado courthouse.
Pretty heroic stuff, all things considered.
But in the long run it made him think he was the hero; that kind of ball got him one shot from being swept by Detroit.
No, he's had that mentality since the Utah air balls.
Yet he previously knew when it was time to let Shaq get his. But once he snitched him out to five-oh, he crossed a thresh-hold way above just refusing to pass him the ball on the block. No rape trial and Shaq gets Finals MVP #4 and LA gets its tenth ring. Plus no Brian Grant + no Kobe failure to make the playoffs.
Wow what a reach.
Nah, no reach. Once Kobe had gone that far, no reason not to go all out in saying Shaq.
venti stop coattailingI love Mitch
That's preposterous and unprovable, but jolly good effort nonetheless.
David Robinson was never the same after Hakeem did him like that. It was at that point he started to realize he wasn't #1 potential, and his only way to the promised land was to embellish a minor injury to get Duncan. See how easy that unfounded correlation was?
