Now we know who forged Andrew Bynum into the player he has become. Lakers fans can send thank-yous to Kwame Brown.
That's what Brown implied Friday after the Lakers beat Golden State.
First, some reality.
"He's a grown man now," Brown said of his former Lakers teammate. "He's grown into his body well. He's a lot more physical than when he first came in."
Then came the fantasy.
"That was my young fella," Brown said. "I taught him everything he knows."
Followed by a little more fantasy.
"I'm one of the better defenders in the league and we played against each other every day in practice," Brown said. "I told him if you can score against me, you can score on anyone."
Brown and Bynum were teammates on the Lakers for 21/2 seasons until Brown was sent to Memphis as part of the Pau Gasol trade in February 2008.
Brown, 29, has averaged 6.8 points and 5.9 rebounds in 11 NBA seasons. The Warriors are his sixth team.
Bynum, 24, is averaging 19.6 points and 15.8 rebounds in his seventh season with the Lakers. He shrugged off Brown's observations.
"Kwame and I are friends," Bynum said, smiling. "We used to talk about cars. We went bowling too."
