... hardly did justice to Bynum's night. He performed the point guard duties masterfully, always looking to pass before shoot all night. In fact, Bynum didn't attempt his first field goal until the closing seconds of the first half. By that time he had already racked up ten assists, setting up his teammates with crisp passes on the perimeter and in the lane. Still, I stand by my intended initial assessment that the th assist was unnecessary. I simply cannot be convinced that any personal accomplishment is worth pursuing, no matter how rare, when you hold a big lead in the closing seconds ... Read More »
