    A couple of days removed from the Los Angeles Lakers' humbling loss to end their championship quest, Andrew Bynum apologized for his ugly foul on Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea.

    "My actions don't represent me, my upbringing or the Lakers," Bynum said in a news conference wrapping up the season. "More importantly I apologize to J.J. Barea for doing that. Glad he wasn't injured."

    I have to say it was very uncalled for and he was acting like a complete sore loser.

    If the rumors are true and Bynum will get slapped with a 20 game suspension; it will be a loss of 3.65 mil. That doesn't even include how much the players may lose from the lock-out. Very costly...

    5 game suspension. 25k fine. I have no idea how you guys think he deserves a 20 game suspension for that. It was a stupid foul, but I've seen far worse in my 25+ seasons watching Laker basketball.

    What if Barea had gotten injured?
