And he's always injured. Talking about what he does when healthy is pointless.
Even on one leg Bynum was a factor, him just being in the middle is a huge plus for the Lakers. He clogs the paint and makes it very tough for teams to get open looks inside. Him being active caused Boston all kinds of problems. Game 7 was proof of that.

Only reason Bynum is inconsistent is because of minutes and touches. When Bynum is given 35 or more minutes he has averaged 18.2pts/11.0reb/2.0blk on 60.8%. When Bynum has been given 15 or more FGA, he has averaged 22.4/10.7/1.6 on 58.2 FG%.
You guys need to stop trying to convince yourselves LA doesn't have a dominant frontcourt. The Lakers' frontcourt averaged 44.1ppg/29.4rpg/7.8apg/4bpg last year. Miami's frountcourt hasn't got a shot in hell of getting close to that. And that's not even taking into account the defensive impact of two true 7 footers patrolling the paint. The only thing that could derail the frountcourt is injury.

Yeah, the Game 7 where he played a whole 18 minutes, went 1-5 from the field, scored 2 points, and grabbed 6 rebounds. Domination!
And every center with decent size clogs the paint, but he's not really a good defender at all. I mean, if you watched the WCF you could see Phil and other Laker players screaming at him and shaking their head at his total lack of defensive awareness and rotating ability.

Are you serious? all that guy does is suck on Kobe's nuts and tries to downplay his supporting cast. He certainly doesn't know what he is talking about.

Most under rated Laker is Odom.
AS a PF he runs and dribbles the length of the floor , takes it to the hoop and rebounds.
Even if the teams were to be even - Odom is the difference maker.
Who is over rated : Bynum (simply because of injury)
This dude is a big body , and if he is ever healthy - he as well is a difference maker , on the boards as well as low post (3 foot shots)
---------------
I am not a Laker fan , and if I were to ra-ra for either of the teams it would be the Heat... but the advantage is the Lakers frontline.
Now if we want to talk about the wing - advantage Heat.

Look through the history books and tell me how many teams won titles without an inside presence on both ends.

True.

Suck off Bynum how? by stating the obvious of what he brings to the table? please. Pretty pointless argueing with somebody who said Gasol isn't a low post player.

How ironic, you of all people telling somebody to get off somebody else's dick. You are the biggest Kobe dickrider on this board.

No, not really. Kobe is my favorite player, but I don't go around wildly overrating him like you do with Bynum. My opinions concerning Kobe are entirely reasonable. But keep sucking off the dominant unstoppable 9/7 beast Bynum!

One, the Bulls (well six).
But you can argue MJ was the interior presence on offense.
I can't think of any others.
This is one of the reasons MJ is the G.O.A.T.
