It was an intriguing NBA Monday night with LeBron James against the Knicks stealing the show. There was a good amount of quality basketball around the NBA, but nothing could top what was happening between James and Enes Kanter.
However, there was some excitement later with the 76ers and Clippers going down to the wire. Joel Embiid had another great performance, but Robert Covington had a career high 31 points in the Philadelphia win.

LeBron James in Madison Square Garden
LeBron vs. Knicks was awesome and gave everybody what they wanted. He got into a spat with Enes Kanter and Frank Ntilikina, but it was New York who answered back with a run to take a double-digit lead into halftime. Cleveland was down by as many as 23 before their comeback began. In the fourth quarter, it was all LeBron and the Cavs stole a victory.
The @cavs complete the comeback at The Garden!

When LeBron James complimented Dennis Smith Jr he took what the Knicks perceived as a shot at Frank Ntilikina. New York is making its feelings on that known.
