The rumor is Miami and Cleveland will face off on XMas. There's a chance the Lakers play the early game, but at least the league has moved on from the Kobe-Shaq feud. If the Lakers aren't playing on XMas, it will be the first time in 10 years. (according to John Ireland)
Yeah I don't think they've won on XMas day since I moved to SoCal. So 7 straight years of losing LOL.
its good that the media is getting over the Kobe-Shaq-Wade rivalry but I always loved the lakers xmas game. Very entertaining on an awsome day.
I love Christmas games. Sittin' down, eating a big dinner, then digesting it while watching a Laker game with the rest of the family. Doesn't get much better than that.

I'm tired of watching Miami on Christmas day. That team's on the verge of being a wreck and they're so many more exciting matchups out there. How about Phoenix/San Antonio?

I actually think a Toronto/Magic game would be interesting. I also think what Legacy said would be interesting. Warriors vs. Mavs.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I actually think a Toronto/Magic game would be interesting.</div> Definitely agree. Howard-Bosh is always a great match-up and since the NBA was trying extremely hard to market Dwight at the All-Star game this year (his jersey on the Statue of Liberty replica, his face all over Vegas, etc.) it would seem like a pretty good idea. I doubt it happens though because it's not something most casual sports fans would watch. Until both the Magic and Raptors are contenders or Dwight and Bosh reach superstar status, it's not going to happen, unfortunately.

But they arn't going to put a Canadian team on ABC yet. Until it is the finals or something, I won't see Bosh on ABC Howard-Bosh match-ups are great, I just wish people would give these team more respect.
<div class="quote_poster">Dark Hero Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">That will be boring no offence.... More like Lakars Vs Suns...</div> Boring? If you don't like Mavs and Warriors games, then you don't like NBA basketball. No bias at all, almost anyone would take the Warriors and Mavs over Kobe and the Suns.
