Harden Ties Kobe For Most Pts At MSG, Oladipo Injury, LA Rep Wants Goodell To Testify

BASKETBALL

James Harden started with a four point play on Wednesday night against the NY Knicks and didn’t slow down. Harden finished with 61 points,  15 rebounds and 5 steals, tieing Kobe Bryant for the most scoring points for a visiting player at Madison Square Garden since 1968. Rockets 114, Knicks 110.

In some unfortunate news, it looks as if the Indiana Pacers All-Star guard, Victor Oladipo, suffered a potential season ending injury in a non-contact play against the Toronto Raptors Wednesday night.  Oladipo is the Pacers leading scorer this season.

First it was a lawsuit against the NFL and Roger Goodell, and now a New Orleans congressman, Cedric Richmond (D-LA) wants Goodell to testify in front of the Judiciary Antitrust Subcommittee about the blown call against the Saints in the NFC Championship game. Richmond said, “The Saints should be on their way to Atlanta to play in the Super Bowl. Instead, they are left with the memory of officials who failed to create an equal playing field and deprived them of that opportunity. Officials should not have the ability to determine the fate of a team who rightfully earned their place in NFL championship history.”
