    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Garnett clearly didn't enjoy his moments butting heads and other body parts Tuesday night with precocious Lakers center Andrew Bynum, 19. But after Bynum helped beat the Wolves with career highs of 20 points and 14 rebounds, Garnett couldn't have been more gracious, praising Bynum's confidence and willingness to learn from great mentors.

    "For me, it was Kevin McHale. For him it's probably been Kareem [Abdul-Jabbar]," Garnett said. "He's got confidence in some of the moves. [He] has gotten comfortable with the speed of the game. He's probably more knowledgeable. He's a real good passer. He has soft hands. Good footwork. He's like night and day. I'm happy for the young fella."

    I watched some of the Lakers-Timberwolves game and I was really impressed by Bynum. During the third quarter he looked really good and had a couple nice offensive plays. His block on Mike James was also impressive. Not everything Bynum does shows up on the stat sheet though. He was altering shots all night and was making it difficult for Minnesota's players to score in the paint. I think Bynum is going to be a really good player the fact that he is having a breakout season at just 19 years old shows how much of a force he's going to be in his prime.

    KG, why don't you come to LA and teach the young bynum yourself [​IMG] . I can imagine a scenario that someday we will acquire KG while manage to keep Bynum. Not only do we get a legitimate superstar playing along side with KB, we also have a future backup plan in Bynum. In case once KG's career declining, by then, Bynum will be ready. Though, I feel sorry that LO must go. He has that personality, the selfishness, the versatility that I hate to let go off. But man o man, LO is just not the type of player that can win a championship.
