He pouts when he doesn't get the ball. The biggest reason he doesn't get the ball in the 1st place is because he doesn't work hard off the ball to make a passing avenue available, thats his general laziness that permeates through the other aspects of his game. Hes always the last to run down the court and they have to kill the shot clock trying to set up a play in the post for him next thing you know the shot clock is drained with Kobe or Gasol have to jack up a long 20 footer.
I'd go more like Lebron vs. Durant. To be fair, Dwight is immature and childish and acts like an idiot as well
One of the better centers currently in the NBA, but its a weak position these days. He also kinda seems like an A-hole.
He can be a beast inside the lane. But I tell my friends that his knee concerns me a lot. It seems like it's damaged at his young age and when abused physically, it will give in.
Despite his successful season (health-wise) this year, he will not be healthy enough to ever reach his potential. The debate of how good Bynum could have been will be the debate we will have after his career is over as opposed to how good he was vs the other great centers to play the game.
Even if he stays healthy he isn't going to improve much. He is way too inconsistent. He can either do all offense (Like Gm3) or all defense (like game 1). He is incapable of being someone ilke Dwight Howard who can carry an offense and imapct defense on both ends for an entire game. He's a very good player and has a lot of tools to work with. Theres a massive massive problem in between the years, pretty much like Lamar Odom but different sets of issues

Tomjanovich Believes Bynum Has Potential To Rank Among Greatest Centers Ever May 10, 2012 11:25 PM EDT Rudy Tomjanovich believes 7-foot Lakers center Andrew Bynum “can be one of the best players at that position, ever, with Hakeem and Shaq." Tomjanovich currently serves as a scout and statistical analyst for the Lakers. "I think when you watch him on TV it doesn't give you a clear picture of how big and long this guy is and how he seems to dwarf the guys he's playing against," said Tomjanovich. "What he had right from the beginning is a knack to get the ball in the basket. But he is young and the guy makes mistakes. “Mike Brown and the coaching staff are doing everything possible for their young guys…to think the right way, to say the right things. But they make mistakes and the mistakes sometimes are painful. It's like your kids…you wish they didn't have to go through this stuff but they do." Via FoxSportsHouston.com
Well, I do think that this is his first full season (full in italics for a reason) and considering that and his age there is still room for improvement. They thing is, consistency is something that comes with experience a lot of times. So, if he has had signs of 'brilliance' then there truly is room for improvement. Although, I stick with what I said and think he won't have a healthy career despite this year being a success.
