It's the biggest regular-season game IN THE HISTORY OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION. It's bigger than the World Cup, the Super Bowl, the Masters and the World Series combined! The ancient Ceasers of Rome would ride out to the amphitheater to see this game live if they could!
Sorry guys, Bill Walton took over my computer for a second. Regardless, tonight's Lakers-Cavaliers game is probably the biggest game of the season to date. Both teams are well-rested, having not played last night. Both teams have made their case for being the top team in the league. The Lakers are sure to want revenge for their embarrassing Christmas-Day loss to the Cavaliers, in which fans got so mad they started throwing foam fingers onto the court.
Join us throughout the day for previews, pre-game analysis and injury updates, and then come back at 8 p.m. Eastern for updates throughout the game. You'll see LeBron, Kobe, Shaq, Gasol, Odom and, yes, Bill Walton's son himself do battle on the hardwood floor.
For now, let's close with the best picture in the history of West ... hey, Bill, step away from my computer already!
