LeBron unfortunately has had his historic triple-double night in msg erased as the referees reviewed his tenth rebound and concluded that Ben Wallace got the rebound instead of James, and awarded him with 9 rebounds instead of 10. Here is the link to the video (Top)

LeBron Answers Right Back


After watching Kobe put a an MSG record 61 points, another superstar was watching in the distance. You may have heard of him. 6'8, 250lbs, out of St.Vincent St.Mary high school? Yeah, LeBron James. He saw what Kobe did and decided that he didn't want to miss out on all the fun. So, he plotted a game of his own, except this one would be much more all-around. The man played in MSG 2 days later, and posted a 52 point, 10 rebound, and 11 assist night. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT THIS MAN CANNOT DO????!!!!! He immediately saw what Kobe was doing, and he did not, and would not pass up an opportunity to have an historic game of his own. He and Kobe are the only two people that are competition for the other one. The only person that can stop Kobe is LeBron, and vice-versa. These are moments where you just have to stand back and say, "I LOVE THIS GAME!"

Kobe's 61: An MSG Record



People have wondered if Kobe can lead his team to another championship. Granted, he's won 3. But he had the help of Shaq to assist him in his 3-peat history from 2000-02. Now with Shaq gone, people have thought that Kobe has lost his dominance in terms of leading his team back to the promise land........until last night. Kobe Bryant has just broken a Madison Square Garden Record for most points scored by a player in an individual outing wit 61. He single-handedly took a game against the knicks and made it his, and only his. The Lakers would go on to win the contest 126-117 as he and Pau Gasol combined for a whopping 92 points, three quarters of the total amount scored by LA. Although Bynum is hurt again for the remainder of the season, Kobe has certainly stepped up his game and dominated to the surprise of no one. MVP!MVP!MVP!
