Did anyone else get chills watching Kareem Abdul Jabar running drills with Andrew Bynum durning the Lakers-Spurs game yesterday? Kcal 9 and FSN West have always mentioned and acknowledged the coaching relationship between the NBA's All Time leading scorer, and half of the towering tandem that make up the Lakers front court, but the clip on ABC of Bynum spinning away from The Captain to drive towards the basket was amazing. Minus a reverse ball fake, that was the exact same move that Bynum pulled off on Shaquille O'Neil his rookie year (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXElDmCuC8s ). Bynum does not have Kareem’s sky hook, but the footwork is almost identical. Compare these two links.

The only reason Bynum gets hyped like he does is because he's in LA, he's just your run of the mill average center and thats all he'll ever be...Granted he's young but Kobe aint going to be around for ever to carry the lakers and i wouldnt build my team around a guy whose been in the league 3 years and ranks 88th in the nba in scoring and 32 in the nba in rebounds...
