Report: Andrew Bynum signs with Pacers
http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/10...indiana-pacers
The Indiana Pacers added size and depth Saturday when they signed center Andrew Bynum to a contract for the rest of the season.
The Pacers will pay Bynum $1 million for the remainder of the season, a source told ESPN.
Bynum, who will join the Pacers next week, will back up All-Star Roy Hibbert along with Ian Mahinmi. Also featuring power forwards David West and Luis Scola, the Pacers will have some of the best depth in the NBA at the big man positions.
The move also kept Bynum away from the rival Miami Heat, who beat the Pacers in seven games in last season's Eastern Conference finals. The Pacers enter Saturday with a three-game lead over the Heat for the East's best record.
"We are obviously happy to have him join our team," Pacers president of basketball operations Larry Bird said in a release. "He gives us added size, he is a skilled big man and he has championship experience. With the minutes he gets, he should be a valuable addition."
Five teams were interested in Bynum, including the Heat, but it was the Pacers who had a roster spot and the space under the luxury tax to add him now.

Low risk deal for the Pacers. They have to make sure he doesn't affect the team chemistry. If he starts to do that just cut him.

Sign him, don't run him for a second, only to stop other teams using him against you.
Two guys I would never have on my team are this guy and Dwight, neither care about winning or have what it takes to win it all.
It's just a big joke for them.
