And in other news, there is unrest in the Middle East, its hot in Florida, and Lil B isn't good at making music.
The Lakers had to see this coming, right? Bynum played in like 10 straight games, he was due an knee injury at some point. What's the difference between it happening last night and it happening tonight in Sacramento or Saturday in their first playoff game? We're talking about Andrew Bynum here, it was just a matter of time.
I'll tell you what though, its a good thing the Lakers didn't make that Bynum-Carmelo Anthony trade. I mean, what would they do with Melo's 26 points a night when they have so many "Andrew Bynum hurt his knee" headlines left unused? My point exactly.
**UPDATE**
It's just a bone bruise and Bynum should be fine for the playoffs...until he's hurt again.
2) Josh Hamilton Break Arm; Out 6-8 Weeks
Well at least he isn't out for rehab.
3) Joakim Noah Re-Sprains Ankle; Ronnie Brewer Sprains Thumb
These injuries should be no big deal. They'll both probably sit in tonight's season finale and be ready to blow Indiana away this week. And even if they aren't, its just Indiana, I think they'll be okay.
4) Steve Blake Has Chicken Pox; Matt Barnes Out With A Knee Injury
Just in case you were wondering, Steve Blake is a man of 31 years of age. Welp, break out the calamine lotion because there are other Lakers who have never had Chicken Pox (including Kobe Bryant and Ron Artest) before and we know they are very contagious. Shit is all fucked up in Lakerland.
5) Michael Redd Says He Can Still Play
Speaking of 31 year-olds, Michael Redd says he still has something left after Andrew Bynum-like knee issues. Hey, bring him on down to Miami, we can definitely use him next year.
6) Andrew Bogut Has Elbow Surgery
Unlike Redd, I know the Bucks aren't letting him go, but he'd also be a welcomed addition to Miami's roster next season. Well, if there's a next season.
