    I thought Bynum was learning from Jabbar already along with someone else.

    Well this is like the other thread, except it sounds like talks are further along this time. If they are in contract talks it has to be a good thing. Though i really don't know how much he can teach our players that the coaching staff can't already. I mean I know he's a hall of famer but when ur as old as he is, it's not like he can show bynum any moves that u can't already find in a book somewhere
