The Garden is on Fire!

Wow. What to say! After Kobe's 61-point performance on Monday and LeBron's 50 + triple-double last night, I wonder what the Knicks are in for when the Celtics come to town. Could there be two triple-doubles today - one by Rondo and one by Kevin Garnett or Paul Pierce? As KG said in the last game of the '08 NBA Finals, "Anything is Possible!"



LeBron's output was statistically unbelievable - the kind of unbelieveable that Wilt Chamberlain puts on his opponents almost daily during his professional career. A triple-double is amazing. But having not only a triple-double but ALSO 50 POINTS is out-of-this-world.

Here's his performance last night:



Even in fantasy standards, he had a monster game. Typically, elite players, such as LeBron, average about 35 fantasy points per game (using cbssports fantasy statistics). That output is about as musch as a triple-double. Yesterday he had 84 fantasy points. EIGHTY FOUR POINTS! Unbelievable!

Let's see what the Big 4 - Rajon Rondo, KG, Pierce and Ray Allen - can produce today against the defense-depleted Knicks.



The sky is the limit, Boston!

Now, to conclude today's post, I have today's Daily Video. It is of the original NBA on NBC theme, Roundball Rock, by John Tesh.

Enjoy!
