Difference is Bynum is a beast. He wasn't missing half a season, he was strengthening his knee to come back even better next year..because we don't need him now. Duh! He is our ace in the hole for game 7.

Mamba, on the radio, I heard Bynum probably won't be back next season. There is something really wrong with knee. They're saying his injury is much worse than they initially thought, and that it is career threatening. Even if he does return, he will never be the same again because his athleticism will be gone. Think Chris Mihm

Kind of sounds like a rumor, although I don't believe in Bynum anyway.

Brian,you really suck at sarcasm. That was a pathetic joke to fool us. Odom for Artest sign and trade!
