Beat LA!

Edit: Is LeBron going to rest again today so he can have a big game on Christmas?

Lebron when he learns he has to play this Celtics team during the most watched regular season game of the year.

If the outcome of this is anything besides a thread titled around the lines of “dreaming of a D White Christmas” then this internet webpage was for nothing.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

The Lakers don't have the horses to keep up with the Celtics.

But miracles do happen in the NBA.

Still, this should be a Celtic win.

Should Tatum even play this Lakers Game?

Tat will play.

It's a nationally televised game.

No way JT will pass on that opportunity.

After seeing what we did to the Clippers and Kings, I would not be shocked to see them duck this one :dontknow:
