For four years the relationship between the NBA's all-time leading scorer and Bynum seemed to be a productive one.
Abdul-Jabbar took Bynum under his considerable wing, taught him post skills and footwork, while Bynum listened and grew into one of the brightest young centers in the NBA.
But that relationship now seems to be running its course, at least as far as Bynum is concerned.
Sources close to the team said that Abdul-Jabbar will be playing a lesser role with both the Lakers and Bynum this season.
Good move, Bynum. What the hell could one of the greatest centers in NBA history teach you anyways?
Meanwhile, while you were backpacking through Europe, Perk was working his ass off in the gym, getting leaner and stronger and developing his post-game with Clifford Ray.
Bynum will disappoint the Lakers again this year, and next off-season they will attempt to trade him. I guarantee it.
