Out until March now with rest or the entire season with surgery.

This came from an erroneous doctor who had never worked with Bynum before. As pessimistic on Bynum on anyone, but no credibility behind this latest "report".

I agree with Justin here. I think you've got to wait for an official report from the Sixers before making any panic moves.

that was not very smart too

It's definitely concerning, but I don't know if I'd jump to conclusions as to him having a Roy-type situation. Keep in mind that Roy was playing through injuries all the time and was being looked after by the infamous Trailblazers staff. Bynum, on the other hand, has been having issues for a while and so was definitely being tracked very carefully by a very good Lakers staff up until recently. I think it's smart for the Sixers and Bynum to being cognizant of his knee issues and the long-term implications, and are being extra careful and taking preventative measures (which is how it sounds to me).

Ready to jump yet?

Spud - loved the gif.
