Bynum powers Lakers past Nuggets
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 02 - 01 - 2012

Kobe Bryant and Andrew Bynum powered the Los Angeles Lakers past Denver 92-89 Saturday, a victory sealed when Denver's Danilo Gallinari botched a game-tying layup in the closing seconds.
Bynum scored a game-high 29 points and grabbed 13 rebounds while Bryant added 17 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists for the Lakers, who improved to 3-2 while the Nuggets fell to 2-2.
Bryant sank a pair of free throws to level the game at 89-89 and Bynum followed by blocking Denver's Nene and then putting the Lakers ahead to stay at the other end of the court with a layup.
Denver's Ty Lawson missed two free throws and both Gallinari and Al Harrington missed 3-pointers, but Bryant missed a jumper with 11 seconds to play and the Nuggets found Gallinari on a fast break.
The Italian playmaker moved to the basket for an uncontested layup but his left-handed shot clanked off the rim and bounced out.
Bryant sank a free throw with one second remaining for the game's final point and Harrington, who led the Nuggets with 21 points, missed a desperation three-pointer from near mid-court at the final buzzer.
Pistons 96, Pacers 88: At Auburn Hills, Michigan, Jonas Jerebko had 20 points and 12 rebounds as Detroit ended Lawrence Frank's 20-game losing streak by beating Indiana.
Jerebko, who missed all of last season after tearing his Achilles' tendon in the preseason, narrowly missed his career bests of 22 points and 13 boards.
Frank hadn't won a game since April 13, 2009, when his Nets beat the Charlotte Bobcats. The Nets lost their final game that season, and Frank was fired after New Jersey got off to a 0-16 start the next fall. He also lost his first three games with the Pistons since replacing John Kuester during the offseason.
Rockets 95, Hawks 84: At Houston, Kevin Martin scored 27 points, and Kyle Lowry matched a career high with 18 assists as Houston led from start to finish in a victory over Atlanta.
Luis Scola added 21 points, Jordan Hill grabbed a career-high 15 rebounds and Chase Budinger scored 17 points for the Rockets, who looked fresh despite playing their third game in three nights.
Joe Johnson and Al Horford scored 15 points apiece for Atlanta.
Former Rocket Tracy McGrady scored 13 points on 6-for-11 shooting. He first entered the game with 3:57 left in the first quarter, and most fans greeted him with boos.
Thunder 107, Suns 97: Russell Westbrook scored 18 points to help host Oklahoma City remain perfect at 5-0.
In other games it was: 76ers 107, Warriors 79; New York beat Sacremento 114-92.
