Bynum being injury prone has always been a bit overstated. The first one was a case of him landing on another players foot and getting hurt (which happens to a lot of guys). The second injury was a case of Kobe landing on on Bynum's knee. It's not like Greg Oden where dude blows his knees doing basic shyt, Bynum's are a result of awkward collisions with other players. Besides he stayed healthy this past season when damn near everyone else racked up injuries. I'm seriously not worried about Bynum's Knees (especially knowing he went on the KobeSystem).

As for Kobe's health he's actually has a longer injury history than Bynum, he's not fukking human and plays though shyt other player are unable to.

Bynum also had the other injury at the end of the 2010 season. Luckily for him, most of the rehab time was in the offseason but he still missed 2 months of the next season.

And that treatment he got that forced him to miss most of the allstar game, wasn't that arthritis treatment? At age 24? He seemed pretty healthy last year but there isn't much indication that he's built to last.

The other injury was due to him coming back too soon. He hadn't finished rehabbing from his previous injury. Same thing happened in 2009.

It has to be kept in mind too that Bynum went to Germany and got on the Kobe System which has proven to work. Kobe's knee was WAY more fukked up than Bynum and after that procedure he didn't have any more significan't knee problems.

Bynum has also drastically changed his workout routine to better strengthen his knees.

D12 gonna come out in a show, rip off his shirt to reveal a Lakers jersey.

NBA shook that he's still in LA chillin. He's probably staying in one of Kobe's houses that he was able to keep in the divorce.

Vanessa didn't go anywhere. :youngsabo:

Would y'all sign & trade Hill|Ebanks & Bynum for Dwight|Richardson?
hell nah...Get rid of all our youth for an old ass dud with a ridiculous contract. I aint got no problem pickin up jrich...but not for 3 good players. Dwight and Bynum are pretty much equal. If we throw in anybody it should be expiring contracts like McCacberts...Youngins still on their first contracts or Stevie B.

Lakers are in win now mode...If they get Dwight he future is pretty well set (Since the Lakers actually know how to build around a big man).

J-Rich's contract isn't going to be too much of an issue. He'll thrive playing with Nash, and by the final year of his contract Kobe and Pau will be off the books and if they decide to come back their contracts will be half (or less) of their current ones.

If Mitch does pull this shyt off he's a lock for executive of the year. Considering the Cap situation and clusterfukk this Dwight thing has been if Mitch can lock up a starting five of Nash/Kobe/MWP/Gasol/Howard that some amazing fukking shyt.

If Not for basketball reasons Mitch might have won executive of the year the last season.
