Bynum: "I'm playing"

Lakers center Andrew Bynum said he plans to play Thursday night in Game 7 of the NBA Finals. He also said it was a relief that this is the final game of the season and added he has not set a date for surgery to mend the torn meniscus in his right knee. Bynum scored two points, grabbed four rebounds and blocked one shot in a little less than 16 minutes in the Lakers' victory in Game 6 on Tuesday. He played only 1:42 in the second half, telling Lakers coach Phil Jackson he couldn't run and was better off sitting on the bech.
