Andrew Bynum

He fooled me yet again.

We’ve seen this act before. Andrew Bynum, through the first five games, is averaging over 20-10, yet again. 

It’s nothing new. For the third straight season, the young, potential stud, center for the Los Angeles Lakers has hit the ground running and has shown flashes of being an all-star caliber center in the NBA.

He needs to continue playing like this even when/if Andrew Bynum comes back. My opinion they should keep Odom in the starting lineup and move him to the small forward. Yes the Lakers will lose

This time we thought we would have Andrew Bynum with us, but that's not the case. I am not going to say the Lakers have no chance tonight, even without Bynum the Lakers can win this game. This

Kobe Bryant led the Lakers with 22, Trevor Ariza had 17, Pau Gasol 16, and Andrew Bynum 15 in a balanced effort. Bynum provided another strong all around game with 15 points, 11 rebounds, and f

It was young center Andrew Bynum. Obviously you do not want to get over excited about two games, but hopefully this is a sign of something from young Bynum. Today will tell more when he goes up against Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs. Even though Bynum's big games came against low ranked teams, if he can build some confidence from these games and carry it on, it will make the Lakers that much better.

you are prohibited from talking any kind of trash to one the all-time greats? I think it's fair.

Andrew Bynum has a bone spur in his right foot. After hours of trying to find a San Antonio joke, I give up. (Spurs- get it?) He finished with a double-double last night, but as his spur goes so does the Lakers.

ast night 118-108. 

Although the Lakers did commit 18 turnovers, five of which belonged to Andrew Bynum, they came through with the game on the line. The Kings trailed by as many as 19 points before Bobby Jackson helped put together a 21-6 run. However, when you have the ultimate closer in Bryant, there's never really need to worry. With 6:17 left in the fourth, the Lakers took control and the young Kings' hopes were shot.

Around the NBA:

- It's been confirmed by one source that Lakers and center Andrew Bynum have come to terms of a three-year contract extension worth approximately $42 million. (Not bad for a 21 year old who has exceptional upside, but still on the unproven side). I think he'll be worth it for sure if he can manage to stay healthy and on the court.

Spurs finally ready to repeat?  Who will be the dark horse, Houston, Denver, Utah?  Will Andrew Bynum come back and be the same guy he was before he hurt his knee and will Kobe be able to deal with his injured finger?  These are just a few of the questions that will be answered before we can crown a champion in June.  Teams around the league took three and a half months to study for this test.  Tonight, they begin taking their exams.

inally got his wish and having an All-Star sidekick means he'll remain a Laker for life, and 3) Andrew Bynum's knee injury is a lot more serious than what the team is revealing.

When Bynum's kneecap popped out of place last January, I thought for sure the Lakers were dead in the water. Then, the injury report came out and it read that Bynum was expected to have a full recovery and should be ready by mid-March. Well, not so fast. L.A. Times columnist Kurt Streeter sat down with Bynum over the weekend and reported that there is still some swelling in the knee. Not good. The severity of the injury most likely played a key role in the Lakers going to Plan B and got the Gasol deal done ASAP.
