Sasha will be starting tonight for the Lakers. This will be the last chance Bynum has to practice at center before opening night. I hope he comes out aggressive again and can do a better job at dominating the glass. Matching up with Camber and Nene will be a good challenge for him and will be a different look for him defensively. Nuggets are using a new uptempo offense this season, so this is the perfect warmup before the real season starts against Phoenix. Go Lakers!
<div class="quote_poster">Lakers4Life Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Watching WS game 4. good one. What's the status on Bynum? How is he doing?</div> Bynum has been terrific thus far. He has 14 points, a couple of rebounds, and a couple of blocks at the end of the first quarter.

<div class="quote_poster">Lakers4Life Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">All this in the first quarter? </div> Yep. You heard this right. IN THE FIRST QUARTER! The Lakers also scored 40 points in the first without Kobe Bryant. Game's on TNT for those who don't know

Damn Boykins. 4 point play. Rookie mistake. Good thing P-Jax is not on the sdelines but he is taking notes.
Yeah Bynum is amazing right now. Lol I didn't know Farmar was Hispanic. I don't watch much college ball and in the 2k7 game he looks like a white man.
LMAO! I pretty sure everybody watching the game just heard Bynum tell Sasha to give him the F'N ball.
Anyone notice how horribly Radman has played today? Matter of fact, anyone notice how horribly Radman has played this entire pre-season? I hope he turns it around in the regular season. I know he is still new to the offense blah blah blah, but he should be hitting some shots. If his hand is bothering him too much, then sit out and rest up
Lakers lose. Sigh......When Vlade got stripped by Melo I think I have had all I can take. I think the signing of Vlade was a mistake especially at that price. This is probably premature though, I just hope he can do a 180 when the regular season begins.
Bynum is a beast!! wow. Havent been this excited about our team since the FOUR HALL OF FAMERS played together.. Im seriously stoked. Cant wait till our roster is healthy and FULLY LOADED!! West Coast watch out!

Once Kobe gets on that court, he's going to stretch the opposing defense and give Vlad many open looks.
Bynum had a breakout game tonight for the Lakers. He was demanding for the ball and doing a great job of sealing his defender. The Nuggets had KMart on him for a few plays, and Bynum sealed him off so well, he completely shielded KMart from plain sight. Smush looked focused tonight and had some nice plays on both ends. Him and Bynum already have chemistry going off pick and rolls. Radman's shot has looked terrible all season long, but I'm most concerned about his propensity to pick up fouls. He fouled out again tonight, and the fouls he's picking up are stupid ones.
Caught the 2nd half of the game tonight. I liked what I saw from Bynum. He was demanding the ball and even got after Sasha, telling him to give him the fu**ing ball. Gotta love the aggressiveness.
Bynum finished the night with 25 Points, 7 Rebounds, 5 Assists, 2 Blocks, very impressive performance. Also managed 0 turnovers and shot 9/12 from the field and 5/8 from the line. Will he be starting this season? Not just based on this performance, but has it been said if he is or not before?
