Bynum healthy - Lakers 3 peat
But dude is made of balsa wood
watching him dominate the boards vs. San Antonio was beauty
lol Heat
He's gonna stay healthy this year, trust me. Those injuries were nothing more than freak accidents. He ain't no Greg Oden.

In those seven games, only once has their opposition cracked the 100 point mark; it was at the Rose Garden and the game went into overtime. Only twice has a team even managed to shoot over 40% against the Lakers in those last eight games. What's more obvious is Bynum's mentality. In games where Bynum focuses on defense rather then scoring; LA has prevailed in a very impressive fashion
vs the Thunder; he had 10 rebounds & 5 blocks in limited minutes, definitely one of the biggest reasons we prevailed. Against SA, he only attempted 2 shots all game while asserting himself defensively. Same with the game against Charlotte.
