First Kobe drops 61 to set the scoring record at Madison Square Garden, now LeBron scores 52 in a triple-double (most points in a triple-double in over 30 years.)
It looks like the hiring of Mike D'Antoni may have been even more ingenius than we originally thought. Not only are the Knicks infinitely more entertaining to watch, their opponents are made to feel right at home. This is especially nice for opponents (like LeBron) who will be free agents after next season and who will hopefully have their decision on whether to sign with the Knicks affected by their memories of the great games they're involved in now.
And what about the fact that the Knicks are on the losing end of most of these great games? That's fine, for this season and next.
In fact, the more we lose, the better off we'll be in the 2010 season because we'll have higher quality draft picks on the roster in addition to whichever free agents (Bosh, Wade, LeBron) agree to sign.
So let's root for the Celtics on Friday night: We'll need a point guard and Rajon Rondo (free agent 2010) would fit right in...
