That last shot by Lebron on Jr was incredible 

[LilBizzyl]

Is the voice yelling Carmeloooo Anthonnyyy" a recording? Or does this guy somehow have the ability to consistently yell his name in the sane pitch every game??

[cballstar]

D-Wade vs. LeBron duels were the best. Too bad they can't happen now

[AfrooChe]

More like an onslaught. Props to Battier for making Anthony miserable. James completely man handled JR Smith and the Knicks. Great win for Miami.

[jakk]

When Miami plays defense like they did tonight, they are the best team in the League easily. Defense wins rings. 

[NICKTASCHYAN]

They weren't even guarding eachother... And Lebrons last fadeaway shot was nice reminded me of Kobe

[BuddyBros]

they NEED guard each other. these aren't duels anymore. they don't go at it anymore like they did in Cleveland and Denver. They're both completely unstoppable on offense so it would just be so much fun to watch them go at it like they did in the past. 

[ItzDSD]

Why do they call these shits Duels? They don't even guard each other the whole game. 

[TheAhmedShabir]

I really like the "Melo vs. Lebron" duel more than the "Lebron vs. Durant", just because of the history between these two guys

[TheEloka]

Shane Battier locked Melo down. Battier was guarding Melo well

[Dragotarify]

Why do they forget the 6 steals for LeBron?

[eobardthawne]

For those saying this isn't a duel because they arnt guarding each other I have to tell you that some of the best duels ever, I.e bird vs magic they didn't guard each other but its still known as the arguablly best duel of all time so yes this is a duel

[ToneyJC]

I'm tired of Mr. Potato Head costing us games.

[silverswords]

Okay for those people who were saying that kd isn't a good defender because he doesn't guard the other team's superstar, just look at today's matchup. Miami put battier on melo instead of lebron. Why? Because battier is a better defender than lebron. This doesn't make lebron a bad defender, same thing with kd. Besides, coached rarely put superstars against each other because it leads to fouls, fatigue and usually teams have a good defender to guard the superstar instead of the superstar being the best defender

[itseman]

This match up reminds me back of the days of highschool melo and LBJ..

[novalaser]

Great defense from jr smith on that last play

[UndeadHermit]

I think the real hero here is Battier. Guy kept Melo below 30 points. 

[akonvict]

Do you guys even know what Duel means?

[NatisCole]

Typical nba marketing 1v1 in a team sport, how the hell is this a duel when they barely even guarded each other...

[mikeperez]

The Knicks need Bargnani back. He is a beast for a Power Foward. Also Woodson has to give STAT at least 21 minutes, man. The Knicks have lost so many players and I hope they don't lose Melo. He has done a lot for NY. Next time the Knicks meet the Heat, the Knicks will destroy them. Promise.
