What was Andrew Bynum's full potential?

[Im Still Ballin]

How good is he if he has no injury problems? He was routinely missing large chunks of games, and played lesser minutes.


- 2007-2008 he played 35/82 games (28.8 MPG)
- 2008-2009 he played 50/82 games (28.9 MPG)
- 2009-2010 he played 65/82 games (30.4 MPG)
- 2010-2011 he played 54/82 games (27.8 MPG)

His one lone all-star season he played 60/66 games and 35.2 MPG.


I think he had Pau Gasol level potential. 20/10 with 2 blocks on 50-55% FG type of guy, healthy on his own team.

He was big, long and skilled -- Tim Duncan lite tier, same as Pau Gasol.



His Per 36 minute stats from 2008-2012...


- 17.4 Points // 11.2 Rebounds // 2.1 Blocks
- 57.2% FG // 70% FT


Everyone always knew how good he was -- it was no secret.

You saw his full potential.

He put up almost 19/12 in 2012 (on 59.4 TS%). He was obviously capable of more than that if he hadn’t gotten injured.

[Stanley Kobrick]

as a first option i believe Andrews full potential would have been maximized as a Yao Ming force

[KobesFinger]

In terms of numbers, around 22/12 on 55-60% with 2 blocks. In terms of impact, pretty effective due to his size, but not a player you can build a team around because of his lack of versatility on both ends and his attitude

I watched a ton of Lakers games in 2012. Kobe, Bynum and Pau were a legit big 3.


It’s surreal seeing Kobe in videos now :(

Bynum has played for a good team in the lakers

In an era where good bigs were rare he could of been a problem. In an era where bigs were plentiful hes just another solid backup or mid level star on .500 team
