In a column for ESPN.com, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar praised Andrew Bynum's willingness to learn during the time the two spent together. This wouldn't really be news if Bynum hadn't created a stir last week by parking in a handicap spot, but this provides a good sign of the big man's willingness to grow and evolve as a player in the future. The comments from Kareem bode well for the Lakers' future considering new coach Mike Brown said that his offense will run primarily through his big men.
