Bynum signed

So we can stop those Graham for Bynum rumors now

Quote:

The Lakers and Andrew Bynum have agreed in principle on a four-year contract extension worth about $58 million, keeping their center of the future in the fold through the 2012-13 season, according to sources familiar with the negotiations who would not speak publicly.

Bynum, who will make $2.8 million this season, will earn close to $42 million over the first three years of his contract extension. The fourth year will be a team option for about $16 million.

That's messed up. He hasn't even played a full season averaging a double bouble and the Lakers signed him for that much

Just over a year ago he was being blamed by Kobe as part of the reason he wanted to be traded.I hope this backfires on them! I'd laugh my ass off.

every time i mention anything about bynum i get torn to shreds...
but i cant help it... the guy plays 35 games and all of a sudden is the best center prospect in the league....?
sigh.

he gets way too much praise IMO.

You spend all that time grooming him to be the centre of the future, you dont want him to go elsewhere and he blows the fuck up. The Lakers HAD to sign him. If they didn't give him big money, some other team would have grossly overpaid for him.
