The Boston Celtics travels on road to visit the Cleveland Cavaliers, November 27.    I bet this will be a good match up.  The game will feature Lebron James and company versus the Big Three of Celtics. 

I think Lebron James is playing the best basketball of his career.  He is averaging with almost a triple double statistics with 31.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 8.1 assists.  Without a doubt, King James is the best NBA player today.

Undoubtedly, Boston Celtics is the best NBA team today boasting an impressive record of 11-1.  Acquiring Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett seems to be the perfect move for the glorious ball club since they are piling up the wins.  Paul Pierce, Garnett and Allen are all averaging more than 20 points per contest and with that kind of statistics, the Celtics may be on their way to glory once more.

Putting the best team against the best player in the NBA will be interesting to watch.  Will Lebron James play beyond expectations and give the Celtics their second loss or will the Big Three be too much to handle for the mighty King James?  The only way to find out is to watch game. Enjoy!

Nets Wins Their Third Straight

After dropping six straight games, the New Jersey Nets are making a small streak and have won their last three games.  The Nets defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 102-100 in a very exciting match-up.  Down to the last 10 seconds of the regulation, the game was still undecided as both teams refused to accept defeat.  The Lakers outscored the Nets in the first half but the New Jersey squad retaliated and played big in the third period.  It was a seesaw game in the fourth period and the Nets prevailed after holding on to a two point advantage.

Jason Kidd had a solid game and finished with 15 points, 14 assists and 7 rebounds.  Richard Jefferson led the Nets with 27 points and Vince Carter contributed 19 points in a reserve role.  Bostjan Nachbar added 15 points for the Nets.
