At the Magic Johnson charity game last night. Here's the article: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/story?id=1586253
The story of the game should be Anthony, he is clearly the better player right now and if James gets too big a head, you can bet Anthony will have the better career.
EXACTLY Oski2005... Lebron scored 26!! That's the headline... While Carmelo scored like 30! Sure...Lebron scored 26 but on 33% shooting....but that's actually good against "NBA vets". There were some pretty good ones there.....So that proves he is decent. But that makes Carmelo even better! I think Carmelo is gonna be a good player.
Actually, James went 5 of 15 in the first half. Second half he went 6 of 10, including 5 of 7 threes. He was 6 of 13 behind the arc for the game. (Pretty good...) 11 for 25 overall. Not too bad, but could definitely be better. The three point shooting was impressive, apparently during the second half he was on fire. But Anthony had 34 points against a very quality squad of NBA players...
The real "story" of the game is Jarvis Hayes scored 20 points and not one of the following scored more than 12: Davis, Payton, Fisher, Pierce, Walker, and Marion. IMO, those facts demonstrate how much of this was a real game and how much of it was for show.
I have seen a few of Magic's games before and it's all show. Even more show than the all star game. They don't get serious until the last 2 minutes.
