Andrew Bynum Out 8 to 12 Weeks
SLAM Online — by Ryne Nelson There’s no other way to spin it: the Lakers are in some deep trouble. Phil Jackson lamented Bynum’s injury after its win against Memphis, and with good reason. Bynum was coming into his own, averaging about 26 ppg in his past five. It was the most forlorn Jackson’s been in front on of the media in a long time. Jackson as well as the rest of the Lakers had hopes of taking its Western Conf.-best record deep into the Playoffs again, but things have gotten a lot more difficult. The news of Bynum’s torn MCL, comes straight from the Lakers organization: Los Angeles Lakers center ...

The Andrew Bynum Injury
48 Minutes of Hell — Reports out of Los Angeles suggest that Andrew Bynum will miss 8 to 12 weeks with a torn MCL, the result of this play against Memphis: On an optimistic view, Bynum will return in April with enough time (7 or 8 games) to regain his conditioning and game rhythm prior to the playoffs.  It’s more likely, however, that he’ll be reinserted into the line up after the playoffs begin. What does this mean for San Antonio? It’s a hard thing for this Spurs fan to type, but even without Bynum the Lakers remain the team to beat in the West.  They have a commanding 5 game lead on San ...

Hip 2 Da Game — Jameer Nelson: The Orlando Magic were hit with a devastating blow when Nelson tore the labrum in his right shoulder, which could cause him to have season ending surgery. Nelson is going to try and deal with the pain in his shoulder over the next several weeks before he decides whether or not to have surgery. My initial reaction to the injury to their All-Star guard was that the Magic would be toast even in the regular season. However, after thinking things over, I think they can manage to hang in there with the big boys out East during the regular season. It's rumored that the Magic are now looking to make a trade to acquire a PG ...
