We've got a few more of these to go, lest you think we forgot... The Lakers were already a very good team (25-11) when Andrew Bynum went down with his season ending knee injury, ironically enough against the Grizzlies during a game in which Pau Gasol had 21/18/8. Perhaps that was the image Mitch Kupchak had in his head when he swung the Feb. 1 deal that brought the scruffy Spaniard to LA. Whatever...

It turns out his agent knows Andrew better than Andrew knows himself. And Andrew wants $80 million over 5 years. Bynum can get a contract extension this summer from the Lakers.
