Evening Scoop: Bynum Expendable?

I hosted my weekly chat this morning, and during the course of the rapid-fire Q&A the question came up of whether or not the Lakers should trade Andrew Bynum this summer and let the group that got them to the NBA Finals last year and the best record in the league this season continue to comprise their current rotation.

The idea stems from the play of Lamar Odom, who has put up All-Star numbers since taking his place back in the starting lineup. As a starter this season, Odom is averaging 17.2 points, 13.6 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game while shooting 52% from the field. Meanwhile, Pau Gasol, playing back at the center position, is putting up season-highs of 22.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, and 5.0 assists per game while shooting a season-high 62% from the field.

With that in mind, consider trading Andrew Bynum.

Some Lakers fans will angrily say that Bynum is dominant and the best center in the NBA. Blah, blah, blah. You can't dominate from the bench, and historically we've seen that big men who get injured early and often usually continue to suffer injuries throughout their careers. As one regular emailer pointed out to me today, Bynum just underwent his third knee operation at age 21 and has a four-year deal worth around $50 million. Is that a sound investment?

Let's say you could work a deal with the Detroit Pistons and land Tayshaun Prince for Bynum and add-ons. Now you have a premier perimeter defender - much more important in today's NBA - as well as another Finals-tested All-Star caliber player. Meanwhile Detroit could put Bynum out there with a young core and try to build for the future, which is their new goal.

The NBA has changed. Sure, dominant big men will always have a use, but the permium in the new generation of run-and-gun offense is quicker, running big men like Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom. If that tandem continues to play as well as they have over the last few weeks, the Lakers should consider letting another team take the gamble on Bynum's questionable health. They can win a championship without Andrew Bynum.

Interesting. What does everyone but NIK think?

the only young big, outside of Dwight Howard, that I see that's going to be good is Tyson Chandler, but his got the same injury bug Bynum has. So for right now, no, lets invest in Bynum and see what happens.

fuck no!

why trade a TRUE center away in a league without many true centers. will all know big men bring W's.


so fuck no!

we'd have to get:

Dwight Howard
Emeka + someone else
B Lopez + someone else
Al Horford

if we were to ever trade bynum.

none are going to happen because we've invested too much into him and he's not THAT injury prone.

Imma be 100% real on all aspects. It's no secret that the starting line-up's offense simply runs more smoothly with Odom in there, they are simply amazing when it comes to overwhelming their opponents and dictating the tempo. The only thing is, without Bynum, we lose our x-factor... the player who we could rely on if we CAN'T overwhelm our opponents with the most fluid offense in the NBA.

Honestly though, I don't think we necessarily need that x-factor. But the one thing Bynum offered which we DO need is a huge, physical 7-foot bruiser presence. He doesn't necessarily have to be as valuable as Bynum is, but he needs to fill in some of Bynum's roles, which is playing tough defense and finish plays. I initially thought Mbenga could play that role, but it doesn't seem like Phil likes him too much. Probably because from the looks of it, Mbenga's basketball IQ isn't too high. Hopefully things might shape up come play-offs time.

they seem to be doing DAMN good without Bynum, so yeah, why not.  If they can get value for him, and someone whos going to be out there for all the games, I would do it.

Honestly, I gotta agree, but it would REALLY depend on who we could get. Anything less than a star player, then fuck that.

Hell, even with Bynum's injuries, trading him for someone like Artest would be retarded. It's not that we can't use a player like Artest, because we could, but Bynum is just worth a hell of a lot more than that. Not to mention Artest has played even less games than Bynum has this season, and missed like 30 games last season. That's not exactly much more reliable than Bynum.

just because Kobe almost snapped his leg in half by FALLING ON IT doesn't make him injury prone

non-Lakers fans just badly want him to be like Greg Oden

if he's running up the court next year and falls down on his own, then you have an argument

until then there is no evidence he's injury prone

I say no. First off, who are you going to trade him for? You're not going to get fair trade value for someone who is has an injury like Bynum's. Plus the Lakers showed last year that they can still be beaten if you dominate the inside game like the Celtics did last year. Plus he still has a long career ahead of him.

LOL OOOOOHHHHH thanks for clearing that up. So when freak accidents happen to Bynum its just freak accidents, but when they happen to Oden its "lingering knee problems." Thanks for clearing that up. I suppose getting yanked to the ground while landing on someone's foot and banging knees with a flailing Maggette don't count as freak accidents, but rather are lingering knee problems. Brilliant fucking logic.

i own him on my fantasy squad...there's updates on his health every day. to say the least, he hasn't stayed healthy in the past 2 seasons since he was drafted. and im not even counting his injuries sustained prior to the nba...face it, he's injury prone. slim chance he'll live up to that first pick...PeACe

Oden didn't have any freak accidents, do you pay attention to basketball?

please just put your dislike for the Lakers aside, can't we just think rationally for once?

Oden had microfracture surgery on his "ailing right knee"  this is before he even played 1 game in the pros

after playing one quarter in his debut, he rolled his ankle and missed the next 2 weeks

now at the All-Star break he's out again because of "bone chips" in his LEFT KNEE

sounds like lingering knee problems to me, with no freak accidents involved

Bynum dislocated his left knee cap when he landed on another player... it happens, not exactly the worst freak accident

but then this season he's standing still waiting for a rebound and Kobe full speed rams into his leg, bending it back like a flamingo

you can see the difference between the Oden and Bynum... maybe Bynum CAN be injury prone down the line, but there's no evidence that he is

so the case is closed my brother, it's obvious you're obsessed with Bynum and the Lakers and them losing

so you need to make things up to make yourself feel better, I understand

you seriously need to get facts straight before you look retarded

that quote you had proves you have no knowledge of what you speak of

also, Bynum has had ONE surgery you fuckin moron, not THREE

OK, so since you get daily updates on his health you should have no problem providing information about this so called recurring problem in his surgically repaired knee. If Oden is injury prone, than Bynum is a walking injury.

I dont know how many times you can be wrong in one post. this might be a record. First of all, when did you see me say that Oden didn't have any freak accidents? Oh, right, I never fucking said that, you cocksucker. Fail.

Game one of the season with Oden rolling his ankle while landing on Fisher's foot while Bynum yanks him downward is a freak accident. That could have happened to anyone and anyone would have rolled their fuckin ankle under those circumstances. Now tell me how this has any relationship to lingering knee problems. Fail.

The bone chip issue has nothing to do with his surgically repaired knee. It resulted when a flailing Maggette banged knees with Oden. Freak accident. IT WASNT EVEN THE SAME FUCKING KNEE you "dipshit." Explain to me what this has to due with any so called "lingering knee problems in his surgically repaired knee." Once again, you fail.

Sorry it looks like my original point holds true. You guys have a double standard when it comes to this shit. How in the fuck is Oden any more injury prone than Bynum? Bynum has multiple knee injuries due to freak accidents. Oden has had a microfracture and a couple relatively minor freak accidents happen. This is Bynum's second consecutive season ending knee injury. I guess that means he's NOT injury prone like you said.

Stop being such a god damn pussy. This thread was not even made to disrespect Bynum or the Lakers at all, yet you find a way to take it that way. It was made to pose the question as to whether it might be worth it for the Lakers to consider moving Bynum as he could net some good value in a trade. The Lakers are doing just as good without him as they were with him, so if you could stop being so fucking sensitive and defensive about your homosexual crush you could see what the fuck I'm talking about.

What the fuck do you mean I'm obsessed with Bynum? Because I cut and pasted an article that had something to do with him? Get the fuck outta here. LOL @ you thinking you proved somed other than how fucking stupid and emotional you can be about your gay laker fantasy.

edit: BTW I'm not even calling Bynum injury prone, but if you say Greg Oden is injury prone then Bynum is definitely AT LEAST as injury prone.

LOL this is what happens when people realize how stupid they are and try to save face. Next time try addressing the points instead of resorting to typical ad hominem attacks with no substance. Reading is fundamental. I picked apart every single one of your bullshit points other than the Bynum having 3 surgeries part (in which I was referencing someone else's post). The main point of it all anyway is that if you are going to call Oden injury prone, then you must also admit that Bynum is every bit if not more injury prone than Oden. 2 season ending injuries > 1 season ending injury. Let me know when you get tired of being wrong and I'll stop making you look stupid.

Forgive me for getting one word wrong while quoting someone else. We have, however heard about Bynum's knees on 3 separate occasions. When the injury happened, when it was clear it wasn't getting any better on its own and would require surgery, and this year when his 2nd consecutive season was ended. Surely you can see how that mix up would happen. Anyway, since you're so sure of yourself, I would love to hear what lingering issues you have heard about with Oden's surgically repaired knee. Have at it. Then you can explain how Oden is any more injury prone than Bynum. If not, take your L and move on.

Oden = one season ending injury. Bynum = 2 season ending injuries. Kepp in mind that I'm not calling Bynum injury prone, merely highlighting hypocracy and double standards among (some) Laker fans.

That's how Bynum got injured. No matter how injury prone you think Bynum is: if the same shit happens to another NBA player, he breaks his knee too.

LOL dammit man...why does this sound damn near identical to what I've been saying about Oden. People are just not getting it. I'll pose the same question to you since you tend to be more logical than your counterparts around here. If Oden is injury prone, how is Bynum NOT injury prone?

when has Bynum missed a full season? LOL.

I never said he missed a full season. I said he has had season ending injuries two years in a row. Of course there is a slight chance he could be back before the playoffs, he is projected to be out for the remainder of the season.


good job ignoring my point...LOL.


who was it that missed their whole rookie season again? cant remember the name.

Oden = one season ending injury. Bynum = 2 season ending injuries. Kepp in mind that I'm not calling Bynum injury prone, merely highlighting hypocracy and double standards among (some) Laker fans.


Oden=missed a whole season before he played a game
Bynum=didn't


what dont you get? LOL.

Update me: how did Oden actually got injured? Describe me his injuries. If they are incidents like those two, then it doens't mean he is injury prone. He's just guy with bad luck, just like Bynum. And the fact that one guy is missing 3 months and the other one is missing a season doesn't mean shit. It's not about how long you been out: it's about the type of injury you're suffering. If they are small injuries you're suffering about, and it's related to you having bad knees and shit, or a damaged back/shoulders etc.. then you're injury prone. If they are incidents then it's just bad luck.

If Bynum jumps on Kobe breaking his knee and Odom does the same the next season does it mean Kobe is injury prone? No. He's just unlucky.

There are all sorts of goofy ass rumors as to why he needed microfracture surgery so I won't speculate on that (my favorite is he damaged his cartilage playing Dance Dance Revolution, lol).I cant find youtube clips for them, but on opening night he rolled his ankle after landing on someone's foot while Bynum bear hugged him pulling him downward. His latest injury was sustained after the king of all flops, Corey Maggette was out of control on and banged knees with Oden (similar to the injury Bynum sustained).

Unlucky guy. The thing we should see now is that those unlucky events made Bynum and/or Oden injury prones (i mean if they damaged their knees so much that they'll start missing a lot of games for micro-injuries and shit).

You're one dumb fuckin peckerwood. I addressed that shit already and its a moot point anyway. Bynum still has more injuries than Oden so get off my dick you faggot. This thread has nothing to do with rooting against the Lakers, but your bitch ass is so fuckin protective of your man on man butt sex fantasy with a circle of naked Lakers with you in the middle that you think asking a simple fucking question is somehow "rooting against the Lakers." Get off my dick you cocksuckin dick in the booty ass bitch.

if it was up to me, i would trade him

the lakers have a real good team now and adding bynum into it wont make them any better. the same way as taking bynum out of the team doesn't make them any worse. bynum is a young center who will obviously be around the league for a while provided he stays healthy so i would be trying to trade him now and get some value for him. it wouldnt even need to be a trade for another big man, i would take a forward + some draft picks or something
