↵James Makes Most of NYC Showcase. LeBron scored 33 in his last trip to Madison Square Garden in regular season NBA action before the free agency sweepstakes begin next year. The Celts suffered their first loss of the season, falling to the Suns 110-103 thanks in large part to Jason Richardson’s 34 points and 10 rebounds, a performance that came off his worst game of the year. In his first NBA action, Tyler Hansbrough was promptly reminded by fellow former Tar Heel Antwan Jamison that “this ain’t Carolina.” Could’ve fooled him - as Tyler scored 13 points in 14 minutes in the Pacers win over the Wizards.
