LeBron James' most notable Madison Square Garden appearances - ESPN

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers will travel to Madison Square Garden to face the New York Knicks on Saturday (8:30 p.m. EST on ABC).

James has played 32 games in the «World's Most Famous Arena,» amassing a record of 23-9. His averages at Madison Square Garden — 28.0 points, 7.4 assists and 6.9 rebounds — are not far off from his overall career average — 27.0 points, 7.4 assists and 7.5 rebounds.

He has met the Knicks only once in the postseason — the first round of the 2012 playoffs — in which the Miami Heat won 4-1. He averaged 27.8 points, 6.2 rebounds and 5.6 assists, and only scored less than 20 points once in that series.

James dunked the ball, and then wouldn't move out of then-Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina's way as he tried to inbound the ball. Freedom took offense to that, standing up for Ntilkina as James shoved Freedom, leading to a double technical.

Freedom said postgame: «I don't care… what you call yourself. King, Queen, Princess, whatever you
