Basketball: Los Angeles Lakers 103 Denver 88

Andrew Bynum tied an NBA record with 10 blocked shots en route to a triple-double Sunday in the Los Angeles Lakers\' 103-88 playoff-opening rout of Denver. Bynum\'s defensive feat matched the record for most shots blocked in an NBA post-season contest, equaling a mark set previously by Hakeem Olajuwon and Mark Eaton. The center also netted 10 points to go with 13 rebounds to register the first Lakers post-season triple-double since Magic Johnson\'s performance in the 1991 NBA Finals against the Chicago Bulls. Kobe Bryant went 11-of-24 from the floor on his way to 31 points as the Lakers grabbed a 1-0 lead in their Western Conference quarterfinals series against the Nuggets. Denver was paced by Danilo Gallinari with 19 points.
