King James shines in New Orleans

Lebron James' many skills were displayed brilliantly tonight in the 2008 NBA All-Star game in New Orleans. James led the East All-Stars to a 134-128 victory. James won the MVP honors finishing with 27 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists, just shy of a triple double. His court vision and ability to get to the rim were key in the East's victory. Ray Allen was also key to the East's win. Allen had 28 points, knocking down three big triples and a couple free throws in the end, sealing the victory for the East. The young guards were the bright spots for the West, Chris Paul and Brandon Roy looked like NBA veterans bringing the West within striking distance in the end. Paul had 16pts and 14dimes, Roy finished with 18 points and 9 boards. The West team was down a superstar in Kobe Bryant, Bryant started the game and collected one rebound before being subbed out about three minutes into the game. Bryant then hit the showers and sat on the bench icing his finger for the rest of the game. All and all it was a pretty entertaining game, now the real excitement begins, the race for the playoffs.
