yea i saw the update. but again it seems like for 4 years running he has been out with some sort of leg/knee injury.. centers really just dont hold up like they use to. Yao, Bynum, Oden when healthy are a few of the best centers in the league. Well ODen hasnt quite proved anything yet but he was putting up decent numbers when healthy. I think it's the type of injuries with no contact that really make these players seem fragile. well lakers have won without him but if he is out for any amt of time or is less effective when he comes back the Mavs certainly benefit. I really don't care who wins as long as it's not the mavs or jazz.
From what i've read this isn't serious. The Lakers are in no rush.... Let Bynum rest, they are head and shoulders above any other team in my opinion. The title is theirs to lose. If they can stay healthy I don't see any team competing with them.
don't know about that. they are both pretty bad off on getting hurt. it doesn't help that Yao is our best player neither.
This lakers are so stacked in talents. Bynum is like their fourth best players behind kobe, gasol and odom. With or without Bynum, it really doesn't matters much. In fact, if the lakers didn't win the title this year, they will be the most talent team which fail to win it all in the league history!
Keep dreaming... the Lakers can just as easily steal a game in Portland as Portland can in LA.... but it's not going to happen... the Lakers aren't THAT bad.
They aren't even the most talented Lakers team if they dont win the title this year. The 2003-2004 Lakers were one of the most talented teams not to win the title. They had Fisher, Payton, Kobe, Fox, Malone, and Shaq. Also the Phoenix Suns of the 90's and 2000's under the Barkely era and Nash-Amare-Marion-Johnson era were a Horry away from winning the title, imo. The Rockets under Drexler-Hakeem-Barkely were also pretty talented and should have won the title if it weren't for freakin Stockton's lucky ass three!
Weren't teams drooooooling over Bynum at one point? Guess the whole getting Gasol for salt doesn't look so bad now, even though they will still probably win another championship this year. Still, bad karma for them.
Bynum averaged about 6 and 4 in the playoffs last year, and seemingly 4 fouls. I dare say he wasn't a difference maker.
