It doesn't matter how awful the Knicks are, anytime a player steps into Madison Square Garden there is still that magic. Players live to play inThe Garden, rock artists dream to play in The Garden and tonight LeBron rocked New York.
All that on 16-30 shooting, including seven three pointers and add four steals to the mix. Oh yeah, and Cleveland ate up the lowly Knicks 119-105.
I guess after Kobe's performance against the Mavs and all the MVP talk surrounding him, LeBron figured he'd come out and make a statement.

In other statements, KG and the Celtics beat the Pistons down tonight 90-78, at another one of the Gardens in the NBA, the one in Boston.
Garnett had 31 points, six rebounds and three assists. Pierce had 15 points and 5 assists on a 5-9 shooting night and Ray Allen only had 3 points on 1-9 shooting.
The Pistons came out sluggish from the gate and tried to have late heroics, but the Celtics turned the defense back on in the fourth and held the Pistons to a measly 11 points in the quarter. If you're keeping track, the Celtics are up in the series 2-1 this year.
Kendrick Perkins added a career-high 20 rebounds to go along with 10 points for the victorious C's. Cassell did not play tonight, but might get on the floor for their next game against the Bulls on Friday.

Those are the three teams to beat in the East, any of them have a great shot to make it to the Finals, who are you picking?
