Yep I could see that being the case as well. Whatever the reason, I would've loved to see him play one more year and at least hit the 2000 assists mark. 1963 assists is obviously still an otherworldly, eye-popping number, but I like round number milestones like that. Especially such an unheard of one like 2000 assists. Whenever I look at his final stats I just can't help but think "man, just a couple more years!"
