Even after he took the injuries--he can still avg 20+ 10+ 2 + on any team in the NBA except the Lakers when Pau is playing. When Pau was out Bynum was avg 21-11-2 the first 20 games. When you say he is just a dunking machine--that tells me you have watched the Lakers very little. He has multiple post up moves and an excellent jump hook. Any retort is stupid--I watch the Lakers all of the time. Jennings isnt even better than Toney Douglas. I would NOT trade TD for Jennings. Jennings may be the 5th best PG in this last draft. Listen the Knicks made one hecuva call with Douglas--its not TDs fault that MDA hasnt played him but he is a terrific prospect on both sides of the ball. Dejuan Blair is a nice player but I wouldve made mistake picking him over Douglas.
You do a lot of things. I get it, you are in love with Bynum so you are unable to make a real honest appraisal of Bynum's game. Perhaps you should go over to Dictionary.com and look up the term "inconsistent" Obviously you don't understand that term so your opinion does not really mean that much to me. I wish I could find the thread where you stated that the only player that Bynum could be traded for was MAYBE LeBron James.
Bynum = not as good as Al Jefferson. He was becoming the dominant center in the NBA? Only in your bizarro world. It will never happen while Dwight Howard still draws a breath!
Any retort to what I just wrote is stupid. Especially from you.

Ill just answer this with fact.
Fact who was leading the entire NBA in FG% in the 2007-2008 at the age of 20 before he was hurt at a staggering 64%? A Bynum
#1 FG% NBA
#3 rebounds per 48 minutes
#2 Blocked shots per 48 minutes
#3 in assists per 48 minutes from the C position
Last 5 games before injury 19.2 points 12.8 rebounds 2.6 assists 3 blocks shooting 70% in 30 MPG
This is at 20 years old
It's a shame because injuries count but at the time he was becoming the number 1 C in the NBA that year and only 20. The injury stopped him from becoming the dominant big man in the NBA. I have no doubt in my mind. Even now with the injuries--he still is a top 5 C.
