Around The NBA

89 Knicks, 87 Heat (Miami leads series 3-1)
Carmelo Anthony had to be great for the Knicks to win 1 game against the Knicks and he was. Melo scored 41 big time points to carry the Knicks. Amare Stoudemire came back from the gruesome hand injury he suffered from punching the glass after a game 2 loss. Amare had 20 and 10 in the winning effort. The Knicks won the game, but this series is almost over, especially after Baron Davis suffered this gruesome knee injury:

Also Miami had a chance to win or tie the game at the last second but in typical late game Miami fashion, LeBron didn't want the ball with the game on the line and that forced Dwayne Wade to execute the ugliest last second shot attempt ever. I don't know if that's what Erik Spoelstra drew up, but how you didn't give LeBron the ball in that possession is absurd, Lebron was on fire in the 4th and most importantly hitting his free throws.

92 Lakers, 88 Nuggets (Lakers up 3-1)

This crazy lady made things a little bit more interesting in this series, but the Lakers were able to hold off a surging Nuggets team. But the play that changed this game is when the game was tied at 86 and foreign player Danillo Gallinari ran into Pau Gasol and fell to the ground and acted like he was shot (an obvious flop job) and the ref recognized it and didn't call the foul (rightfully so) and then the Lakers found a wide open Ramon Sessions for 3 because the defense was without another defender because Gallinari was on the ground and Lakers were up 3 and didn't look back.

89 Sixers, 82 Bulls
Philly takes control of this because D Rose and Noah were out. Big whoop they are up 3-1.
