    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">With Chris Mihm's returning Tuesday after spraining his right shoulder on Feb. 4, there won't be much opportunity for rookie center Andrew Bynum to play, even though many might like to see that happen.

    "Andrew really has not shown a lot of ability to play right now, so he's got to sit back down and think about his game a little bit," Jackson said.

    "He came out there and was looking to score a little bit more than I wanted him to think about scoring instead of defense and rebounding and being the guy who plugs the middle."

    Mihm didn't impress Jackson in practice Monday with some short-arm efforts, but played 15 minutes Tuesday with a pad sewn into his undershirt to protect the top of his shoulder.</div>

    Think about his game? How about giving him a couple minutes in the beginning of games to get him some more experience under his belt?

    Right now Bynum doesn't have the strength and weight to bang down low and it effects his conditioning. He's sucking wind really fast and tugging on those shorts.
