The Lakers center turned his focus to the upcoming clash shortly after Los Angeles salvaged its three-game road trip with a win over the Timberwolves on Friday at the Target Center.
"We're going at they head. We're going at the Celtics' rack," Bynum said of Sunday's much-anticipated showdown, according to ESPN.com's Ramona Shelburne. "Yo, we going at the Celtics' rack. At they head."
The Celtics and Lakers comprise one of NBA's most storied and heated rivalries, and Bynum seems to be relishing the opportunity to play in the middle of it. In fact, the 24-year-old center flat-out admitted that the Lakers aren't exactly the biggest fans of the Celtics.
"Because we don't like them boys," Bynum said of his reasoning for the strong words.
Bynum's teammates reportedly had a good chuckle over the big man's comments, though. Kobe Bryant admitted that the Lakers are going to go at the Celtics, just as the Celtics are going to go after the Lakers, while Matt Barnes thinks it's just some playful swagger from Bynum.
"Go at their heads?" Barnes reportedly said, chuckling. "Andrew's a character. He's playing well right now, and he's got an amazing swag. You just got to let him be him."
