LeBron's triple-double at MSG not to be
It has been a dream week for basketball fans at Madison Square Garden, however one players memorable performance has been brought down a couple of notches.
Wednesday night, LeBron James became the first player since 1975 to score at least 50 points and record triple-double, or so we thought. Today the NBA has determined that one of James's 10 rebounds should have been credited to center Ben Wallace.
The NBA has released a statement reviewing the game: "All NBA games are reviewed to ensure the accuracy of the game statistics."
James's 52 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds came two nights after the reigning MVP Kobe Bryant scored 61 points setting the record for most points by an opponent at The Garden. On Sunday, Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers play James and the Cleveland Cavilers at 2:30 p.m. on ABC.
