My Experience at the Garden

Last night I went to MSG to watch the Cavs vs Knicks game in which Lebron scored 50 pts and had 10 ast. We had seats behind one of the baskets in the lower bowl level. The game started off a little slow with LBJ tallying 2pts in the first quarter. As the second quarter progresses next thing you know Lebron has somewhere in the mid teens for points. Then something happened.

With a couple of minutes left in the half Lebron turns the corner and heads to the rim like a man possessed. He looks like a fucking freight train coming to the rim and throws down a completely nasty dunk that nobody thought he was going to dunk, especially David Lee. Next play he grabs a rebound and starts a fast break, the crowd starts getting to its feet to see another dunk then Lebron is fouled on the play with no call and he looses the ball which leads to a Knicks dunk. Next play Lebron has the ball and my buddy turns to me and goes, dude Lebron looks like he is going to tear somebody's head off, look how pissed off he looks. Lebron proceeds to nail a fad away three in the corner. Then he gets the ball with 5 seconds left and dribbles down the court where he proceeds to drain a 40 footer and walks off the court with a look on his face like, you have not seen shit yet. He had I think 24pts at that point.

As the second half starts the whole arena is pretty much cheering for him because everybody knows something special is happening here. Lebron does not disappoint and starts raining threes like Pacman Jones rains $100 bills at strip clubs. When Lebron walks off the court he gets a standing ovation and the Cavs walk away with the victory. It was just unbelievable to see something like that. As I am leaving the arena I start thinking to myself I better enjoy the next two years the Cavs have Lebron because he enjoyed this way to much.

And the best part of the whole night it was all completely free, even the beers were paid for. Got to love corporate perks, well my roommates corporate perks not me but either way...aweomse.

Sweet dude, I would love to see MSG, and nothing beats free.

I remember the days of free shit. Alas, that is no more.
That three he hit at the end of the first half was fucking awesome. The fact that he shot it as we was jumping to his left and a pretty good tilt, that sealed it. He was also only 2 rebounds away from a triple double, which would have been sweet. The Cavs could do some damage in the east come playoff time because no one can guard him.
