Sixers center Andrew Bynum spoke to the media again on Monday and said his knees are getting better each day.

“The knees feel good,” Bynum told the media. “I’m not feeling any pain. It’s just all good. Everything’s picking up.”

Bynum said that he hasn't done "any lateral movement" yet in his rehab but is expecting to debut for the Sixers sometime around the All-Star break. Bynum said that lateral movement will be his "biggest test," as cutting is "the last thing to do" in his rehab.

“I just want to get back,” said Bynum. “That’s all I’m thinking about. Once my first game comes, I’m going to play really hard and just play like it could be gone tomorrow.”

Bynum said he wants to step up his rehab but is wary of suffering any setbacks while he is slowly progressing through the recovery process, finally things don't look so bleak for his return.

So Sixers fans, are you hopeful that Bynum can help the Sixers still and would you sign him to a long-tern deal?
