    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Say this much for Andrew Bynum, the kid knows how to star in a show.

    In a follow-up to his Jan. 16 dunking and scrapping moment against Shaquille O'Neal, Bynum dominated the fourth quarter at Madison Square Garden with 16 points in very impressive garbage time. Bynum's mother and brother were in the stands to cheer him on, although his teammates were completely into it, too.

    "That was kinda fun for the team," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said of Bynum's scoring binge.

    Bynum said he heard his teammates cheering for "Socks." He then revealed that has become his nickname on the team ... because he forgot his shower sandals one day and wore socks in the shower.</div>

    Socks it is. Bynum is the babyfaced monster. I don't know if he played great because it was against the lousy Knicks, but he shot great, 7-7, 16 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal in 12 minutes! Give him some more minutes Phil!

    Sox Bynum?

    I liked what I saw in garbage time against the Knicks. He has to be better than Kwame, at least he will be learning if he gets some more minutes. Kwame is done, backup center(Jamal Sampson) for life. We want Sox![​IMG]

    You have to start wondering how dirty must the Lakers shower be if Bynum felt it was necessary to wear socks before washing up?

    There is a kid at my school who is nicknamed Socks but that's because he uses socks in a different way then the rest of us. [​IMG]

    But yeah, I guess Socks is an ok nickname for Bynum. Nothing sounds more intimidating then Big Ol' Socks... [​IMG]
