Finally, an Andrew Bynum report that actually has relevance to him maybe
really putting on a Sixers uniform this year. John Mitchell cites multiple sources
who say that Bynum "participated in a spirited practice" on Friday,
doing the whole 5-on-5 scrimmage thing. Mitchell also reports that the
big deal now will be seeing how Bynum's knees react today, and if
there's no pain, maybe him practicing will become, y'know, a regular
thing. Maybe he'll even play again, like, this season! For the Sixers!
In a game!
If this sounds like pretty big news for 1:00 on a Saturday that no one seems to be talking about, it sorta is. Michael Levin of Liberty Ballers
has been justifiably freaking out about how little reporting is being
done on this news, relative to how extensive the coverage was of all the
stupid, non-basketball-related shit Bynum has been involved with this
year up until this point. The fact that no reporters even saw the
practice is also kinda weird, and makes you wonder if Mitchell's
"multiple sources" are just a fortune teller and a drunk, delirious,
past-giving-a-crap Tony DiLeo. Nothing is impossible with this team.
But
hey, as long as Bynum is practicing and nobody cares enough to notice,
maybe he'll inconspicuously make his debut tonight against the Heat? We
could use him, probably.
