Bynum got hurt again.. against Memphis uli.. sprained right knee.. X-rays were negative though.. I hope it's nothing serious.. he's been playing well pa naman sana..

ivannn · « **Reply #211 on:** Feb 01, 2009 at 12:05 PM »

january last year he got hurt... naku this year ganun pa rin?!?! OMGWTF!!!

time for mitch kupchak to start calling other GMs again for a possible trade deal and keep their fingers crossed that another gimme (like the gasol trade) will happen again. i suggest that they try to get Biedrins from the warriors para may strong rebounder sila and nakaka score ng paunti unti. or they can try to get okur from the jazz.

it's 2008 all over again for the Lakers.. Bynum's out for 8-12 weeks with MCL tear.. I hope this time he can come back for the playoffs.. malas talaga 'tong batang 'to.. injuries on both knees already.. Lamar has to step up.. and expect Kobe to be more aggressive in the coming games.. sayang Boston pa naman sana kalaban nila sa Friday tapos Cavs sa Monday..

the lakers should trade for a big man now as an insurance for the playoffs.

Ok lang yan. Injuries are part of the game. If the Lakers are going to be Champs again...they have to rise amid adversities like this. Gasol and Odom with fillers like Powell and Mihm is still formidable.

I just hope that the timetable is right, so Bynum can return somewhere in the 2nd round of the play-offs. That is if they are still alive by the then. That said, Im gonna treat it like Bynum is already out for the season.

even if he does return by the 2nd round of the playoffs, it will take time before he gets to the conditioning that he was before he went down...

Kobe just dropped 61 pts. against the Knicks.

Looks like we should expect more monster games from him now that Bynum's out (and for opposing defenses to adjust accordingly).

I think (hope) LA will handle Bynum's absence better this year. But they will obviously have problems against teams with powerful frontcourts.

I read that his injury doesn't require surgery, so perhaps that's a good thing - easier to rehab?

It aint that bad.....Bynum's impact will be missed. But I would prefer that the other Lakers overachieve, and the other teams underestimating them because of the injury.

Without Bynum, the Lakers are too soft (Gasol) in the middle. Right now they are winning by outscoring opponents. When the playoffs get underway, outgunning other teams might not be enough to get LA over the hump.

I recently had surgery for my left knee (ACL) and estimated timetable ng return ko to basketball is 6 months (june 2009).

kay bynum ang naging decision nila siguro FOR NOW is to have him go to rehab (leg strengthening exercises) only to have him moving properly na ulit and baka ang plan nila is offseason surgery. siguro ang iniisip nila is "an 80% bynum by playoffs is better than no bynum at all" tsaka depende pa rin sa severity ng injury niya yun. basta if bynum is back by playoffs sana he can get his groove back agad or else masisira ang chemistry ng team sa pagdating niya ulit sa rotation.

Wow, the San Antonio Spurs are reserving Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili and Michael Finley for a tough battle ahead against the C's...the Spurs game against Denver was really a freebie win for the Nuggets...the Spurs next plays the C's on Monday (Manila Time)...

Lebron just dropped 52 against the Knicks.. and 10 rebs and 11 assists.. it was just 2 days ago when Kobe scored 61.. a triple-double and still a close game..

Wiggum · « **Reply #229 on:** Feb 06, 2009 at 12:34 PM »

What a classic! A redemption of sorts for the Lakers - winning on Boston's floor after last year's Game 6 rout, without Bynum, in the second game of a back-to-back, and despite a 50%+ FT shooting clip!

These teams really have to meet again in the Finals.

Couldn't understand why Boston kept going to Big Baby down the stretch, both in regulation and in OT.

Hope LA passes its next big test against King James and Co. on Monday!

boredfilmmaker · « **Reply #230 on:** Feb 06, 2009 at 12:41 PM »

they could have won it in regulation had they made at least half of those free throws they missed.. but they showed pretty good defense at the end of regulation and overtime.. KG fouling out was big, as well..

Munskie · « **Reply #231 on:** Feb 06, 2009 at 12:45 PM »

No Bynum?? No problem!!!

Wiggum · « **Reply #232 on:** Feb 06, 2009 at 12:55 PM »

Boston can just vent their frustrations tomorrow when they visit New York. Wonder who will try to do a Kobe/Lebron at MSG? I'd rather that it be Ray Allen than Paul "Finals MVP" Pierce.

they were running their usual sets with davis in kg's usual place, so the shots that usually go to kg were going to big baby.

but who am i to worry about what the celts are doing wrong

Lakers just traded Radmanovic to the Bobcats for Adam Morrison and Shannon Brown

http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-spw-lakerstrade8-2009feb08,0,5147512.story

Looks like a salary dump to me. Unless Lakers get lucky and either Morrison or Brown pans out. Never watched any of their games though, except I've heard of Morrison's exploits in college.

Wiggum · « **Reply #237 on:** Feb 08, 2009 at 08:49 AM »

^I think Morrison can be a good fit in their offense. Don't know much about Brown. They should've gotten a power forward.

Have a feeling Amare will go to Miami...

amare to miami and marion back to phoenix

return to sender

if that would be the case then marion, magloire and a draft pick + cash considerations para ma push through ang deal
