The Truth vs The King: Game 7
On Sunday, game 7 of the eastern semi-finals. There was a match up of small fowards in this game that went down in history. On the Cleveland Cavaliers, LeBron James scored 45 points, 6 assist, and 5 rebounds. For Boston Celtics, Paul Pierce scored 41 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assist. This was battle of the best and this game will go down in history. Being compared already to the epic match up of Dominique Wilkins vs Larry Bird. Even though LeBron had the better game, what really matters is getting the win. The Celtics won 97-92 against the Cavs. This is second time in NBA history, where 2 opponents scored 40 points or more in a game 7. Sam Jones and Oscar Robertson were the first to do it in 1963. Robertson had 43 points and Jones had 47 points. This was one of the best games in the 2008 playoffs and will be compared by many other great duels in history. Both players had a lot to say about the contest and going at it with this link here.
