February 7, 2009; Sorry, LeBron!

Maybe you guys are wondering why this is the title of my post for today. Well, it is because the NBA ruled earlier today that during the Cavs-Knicks game earlier this week in Madison Square Garden, LeBron James' 10th rebound is NOT credited to him, but rather to his teammate, center Ben Wallace. So, that means James' historic night was not that historic after all. He finishes with 52 points, 11 assists, and nine rebounds, one rebound shy of a triple-double. And if that triple-double would have stood, it should have been the first 50 point triple-double game by a player since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in 1975. Tough luck, King James. And, as the old adage goes, "Better luck next time"...haha! You're still a MVP candidate, don't worry.

And that was a good attempt to outplay Kobe's 61-point performance, also inside "The World's Most Famous Arena".

Also, yesterday, for the second time this season, the rematch from last year's NBA Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics was another classic as expected. The game finished with the Lakers edging the Celtics in overtime, 110-109. The Lakers are now 2-0 this season against their bitter rivals.

Finally, Prelims week is over! Time to unwind once again! And look forward for the Finals! This is the final stretch! Better go for it! Bring home to hotdog, oh...I mean, bacon! :) The moment of truth! 2nd year is almost over...in comes the junior year, where the hard gets harder and the tough gets tougher... One way to compensate that? Just do it and everything will follow!

And now, here are the news from the world of sports!
