Tweet of the Day goes to J.A. Adande, who quoted the new 76ers center Andrew Bynum about how he felt it was time for a change, implying that he no longer wanted to stay with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Bynum was introduced as a Sixer for the first time on Wednesday and was greeted by strong cheers from a large crowd of fans in Philadelphia. During the press conference, he stated the following: “I’m really looking forward to making this my home…..I’m really leaning towards being able to stay here.”
If his sentiment is true, the 76ers may have taken a gamble well worth taking by trading away Andre Iguodala for a center that is widely perceived as the second best big man in the game today. Bynum is also looking forward to being the number one option for the first time in his career and becoming his own man:
