Bynum MRI shows No Rupture In Achilles;Could Miss 4 GMS

I'm not sure if anyone has heard or read about this or if it was even in The Credits but I think it's good news. Personally, I was 50/50 on his injury in terms of how serious is was. His history of injuries was a concern but it was also a concern that this was a new type of injury. What kept me at ease was the way in which he walked off the court which was with no help at all. I would rather see him rest and take time off rather than have him aggrevate it and make it worse. Honestly, I feel they could make it to the Finals without Bynum because they have done it before. No matter how much in love the media is with Dallas Dirk isn't the type of player that strikes fear.

KevinDing: MRI results show no rupture in Bynum’s Achilles’ and he will be re-evaluated in one week.

BA_Turner: Andrew MRI results confirmed a strained left Achilles tendon. He will be reevaluated in 1 week. Drew will miss at least 4 games

latmedina: MRI confirmed he had the left achilles tendon. With being evaluated next week, that means Bynum will miss at least 4 games

Fail

Let’s be real, there’s nobody out there that would significantly contribute at this point, and to be frank we don’t need to add anyone. It’s just about making sure we mesh with what we’ve got. And getting/staying healthy.
