Lakers center Andrew Bynum will have yet another specialist examine his left knee, which has kept him out of action since Jan. 13. The Lakers announced that Bynum will fly to Princeton, N.J., on Wednesday to see orthopedic specialist, Dr. Steven Gecha. A determination on his status for the rest of the season and beyond will be made after Wednesday, though no one around the team has been optimistic about Bynum's situation - at least as far as this season is concerned - for the past couple of weeks.

A Celtics - Lakers Finals matchup just won't be as exciting without Bynum (granted they both win the conference finals).

Only delusional Lakers fans think Bynum will be back this season.
The kid needs to heal.

Us Laker fans have already accepted the fact that he won't be back this season. We're handling our business just fine without him. Can you imagine how much better we'll be next year with a healthy Bynum? It's exciting!! We all hold out crazy optimism that he'll somehow magically heal before the finals but every true fan always roots for their players to get healthy.

Maybe we can get one of those creepy hyperbaric chambers they put Nowitski in...on secong thought..never mind...I see now that still didn't help them get past the 1st round.

But wait....What happened to all the Jack Holes that don' t think Kobe was MVP without Bynum.

You put any legitimate center with Kobe and the Lakers are unstoppable.

This guy is trade bait. Isn't this the second time he's been out with an injury? Could look for better role players; DFisher is 33, give Farmar more minutes?

They are probably better off with Andrew Bynum sitting out until next October instead of inserting him into the lineup in the middle of a playoff series. Then again, he'd probably come off the bench for the rest of the playoffs, that could be scary.

Hey Bynum,

Meet me at the local 24 Hour Fitness for some pick up games.
