Andrew Bynum, putting together a sub-par effort with 10 points and just 3 rebounds, took more shots than Lamar Odom, Trevor Ariza, Sasha, and Jordan Farmar. On any given night, I expect each of those players to take more shots than Bynum. That's partly Kobe's fault. He needs to be looking to pass. The Houston Rockets are going to be tough and physical this entire series. They're going to expect Kobe to come at them, knowing this, and they'll double-team him. If Kobe doesn't pass the ball, or even look to pass, LA's in trouble.

"Big Baby" Glen Davis have picked up their play off the bench as well.
For the Lakers, Andrew Bynum is playing like the difference-maker that everyone projected him to be before the season. Boston's title almost came with a disclaimer last year, with many people -- especially Lakers fans -- saying, "Well, the Lakers didn't have Bynum; he would have changed the complexion of the series." (Or something to that extent).

Spurs finally ready to repeat? Who will be the dark horse, Houston, Denver, Utah? Will Andrew Bynum come back and be the same guy he was before he hurt his knee and will Kobe be able to deal with his injured finger? These are just a few of the questions that will be answered before we can crown a champion in June. Teams around the league took three and a half months to study for this test. Tonight, they begin taking their exams.
