unningham didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The fourth quarter is where it broke open — thompson 2' driving dunk (11 pts) (cunningham 11 ast) (+2.7). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
By the time he checked out for good, Cunningham's line read +14.9 — earned, not held.
