Honestly as long as we get Bynum back in time to get in game shape for the playoff run I am not worried. Kobe will step up to fill the gap right now if need be. But we need Bynum healthy if we are going to beat Boston.

It's only fitting if Bynum is out when the Lakers play the Cavs in Cleveland now that their bigs are healthy.

Bynum's out 8-12 weeks with a torn MCL, which could end up being the rest of the regular season.

Hopefully AB can come back in time for the playoffs/title run.

61 tonight for Kobe, a standing ovation from Knicks fans wehn he walked off the court.

Kobe can't do that every night, but you know the Raptors saw the box score tonight and started crying.
As a side note, you didn't say it, but man the chants of MVP were pretty loud in New York. Honestly, I thought it was cool that he got the standing ovation, had that been in Boston they would have rushed the court at 45 and broke his legs.

The beauty is Kobe doesn't have to do that every night, but when else better to do it than when your young'n goes down... 'they' kept asking Kobe (this is all speculation :)) what's gonna happen now that Bynum is out?
He drops 61.
To answer questions. It's not going to happen every night, and I would vBet you that 61 is his season high.
I just think he was woke up tonight, and my LBJ MVP bet seems unsure now.. at least to me. (thumbs-up)(imo)

I remember the talk at the beginning of the season that he didn't have that scoring ability in him any longer and maybe age had finally caught up with him.
Still going to be interesting on Thursday, I am sure there was a huge cheer from the Boston fans when they found out Drew could potentially be out for the season.

61 is 61 no matter how you slice it, but it certainly helps they were playing the "no defense, New York Knicks". That and the ridiculous amount of possesions when facing a team that shoots 5 seconds into the 24 every possesion.
But Kobe can score, no doubt about it. Bynums' loss equalizes the West in a major way though. Without Bynum, a healthy San Antonio is right there, IMO.

No doubt. We turn around and play the Cavs on Sunday. I am OK if the Lakers drop both, only because beating either one of them right now does nobody any good. Let's beat the one that makes it through the East in 2 months.

I would bet on that.

No argument. I think people have also slept on New Orleans. Get Chris Paul in the playoffs, and see what happens.. not a bad mantra.
My Lakers meter, though, went from about 75% to probably 60% with the loss of Bynum. I am biased, and I am using my own percentages, but I like my odds.
