Summary:
Last night, the NBA All Star game ran through the records books. The first half was the highest scoring half of any All Star Game, Kobe Bryant became the number one All Star Game scorer of all time, and the final score was also highest in history. However, the main point of interest was the battle between Kevin Durant and Lebron James. While both superstars finished the game with 36 points, the West won the game and Durant earned MVP. Although James had better stats all around than Durant, the award was given to the man on the winning team.
Significance:
Both men are basically considered the two best small forwards in the league, even though their games are quite different. Lebron averages better all around stats than Durant, but Durant has the edge on him in scoring. Also, Lebron has Miami atop the East Conference while Durant has the Thunder atop the West Conference. As spectators nationwide watched the game, they saw what could very well be the battle during this next NBA Finals.
