The Slanch Report

When Andrew Bynum went down last season the likelihood of the Lakers winning the championship went down with him. This year they were much more prepared for losing Bynum and have been able to carry on as they get ready for the playoffs. Supposedly he might even be available for the playoffs, although to do so he’d need to be taking his rehab seriously and I’m not so certain he is. For instance, Andrew Bynum over the weekend first went to the Playboy Celebrity Golf Tournament, although he didn’t golf and then later challenged one of the Playmates to a hula-hooping contest. Worst of all, he isn’t even a good hula-hooper. You know, I think the 21 year-old Bynum might have wanted to see Playboy Playmates move their hips and bodies in a rhythmic motion just for his own nefarious amusement, and NOT for the purity of an all-American hula-hoop competition…

The fun wasn’t over for Bynum, this picture of him carrying Playmate Nicole Nahrain on his shoulders sparked plenty of conversation in LA as the Lakers continue on their current road trip without their injured center.

You know what, I bet that being really rich and 21 years old is pretty awesome. Someday, someday!
