Christmas Day.....Cavs vs Lakers

  • Mr. 300
    Who wins???? Who has a bigger day, The GOAT or Leboob????
  • SQ_Crazies
    At least don't be a douche bag and give LeBron the proper respect he deserves by referring to him as LeBron.
  • Mr. 300
    You don't give respect, you earn it.
  • SQ_Crazies
    LOL, what a joke. In that case, you haven't earned enough to even discuss this game with.
  • Trueblue23
    Of course I want Kobe to have a big game, but a win is way more important.
  • thedynasty1998
    Lebron hasn't earned respect? Well then you are a complete moron.

    As for the game, the Lakers are the better team. Lebron and Kobe both go for 35+, but Lakers win by 10.

    Lakers win. LeBron has the best game. Maybe even Gasol has the 2nd best game.

    Mr.300, you are a joke if you want to talk about respect.

    For the game, the Lakers are obviously the better team right now but Cleveland is starting to pick it up on defense. This game will depend on how the role players play for both teams. Kobe and LeBron will get theirs and cancel each other out but can Shaq slow Bynum, can Williams provide the scoring the Cavs need etc.

    Cleveland's schedule is going to be very tough coming up so we will see what we have.

    Could go either way.

    I am a huge Lakers fan but LBJ does deserve better treatment I feel. He's an amazing talent and top tier player in the world. Soon to be the best in the NBA. I'll take my boys by 4points. Cavs will be motivated for this one with LBJ chasing Kobe for greatest in the league and Shaq wanting the win badly.

    Unlike last years disappointing games for lebron, he will go off but the Lakers still win.
  • Darkon
    I look for Shaq to have a big game.(He still wants to show up Kobe)
    I'll take the cavs in a close one.

    That's the storyline for me. Shaqdaddy up against the wonderkid, who is at the top of his game at the moment, broken finger and all. Will Shaq try to bring a little extra or will Kobe???

    Wonder if either team has been working on some new dance moves for this game??

    Lakers only worry about dancing during June.

    Wish Leboob would read that memo.

    Someday, the Dancing Queen may possess the leadership skills that Black Mamba has.

    Someday, maybe. Will it be in Cleveland??? Doubt it. Wish it would be, but time will tell.

    Shaq has to have Kobe on his mind more than the other way around at this point.
  • Strapping Young Lad
    Black Mamba vs dancing queen. Shaq may have Kobe on his mind, SQ will have what's in Lebron's pants on his mind, but the only thing on Kobe's mind is winning.
  • wes_mantooth
    Cavs win. I they will have the ol' "Little Man's Syndrome" going. This game will be much more important to them than it will be to the Lakers.
  • krazie45
    Cavs have been taking it to the top teams in the NBA this year as opposed to last year....I'll take Cavs in a close one
  • Jesus Christ
    My pop says the Lakers are going to win! LMAO
  • Mr. 300
    ^^^^I think the Cavs will need divine intervention to pull out a win.

    Without a doubt.

    During the past 3 years or so we've all realized that must maybe everything that went down in LA wasn't entirely Kobe's fault..

    This game will be a fun one to watch, I'm very excited.

    Here are the matchups:

    PG- Derek Fisher vs Mo Williams EDGE- Cavs
    SG- Kobe Bryant vs Anthony Parker EDGE- Lakers
    SF- Ron Artest vs LeBron James EDGE- Cavs
    PF- Pau Gasol vs JJ Hickson EDGE- Lakers
    C- Andrew Bynum vs Shaquille O'Neal- Even

    Bynum is better than Shaq at this point in their careers, but I just don't see him doing much offensively against Diesel. Maybe he'll get his while Shaq is out of the game, as Bynum can play more minutes.

    Starting 5 doesn't mean shit. When you include the bench, which is pointless not to do--the Lakers have a HUGE edge. It really shouldn't be close. The only reason the actual game could be is because LeBron can keep any team in any game on certain days. I'm hoping he has one against the Lakers--it'd be a nice Christmas present.
  • Sage
    Lakers will roll by 15. It won't ever be in question.

    Artest is going to abuse LBj.

    And this isn't shit talk.
