One NBA legend even called out Roger Goodell's league on Wednesday. LeBron James, after his Los Angeles Lakers beat the Golden State Warriors 115-113, made it known what sport he believes should dominate the Christmas Day slate. "I love the NFL," James said. "But Christmas is our day."

Both LeBron James and Steph Curry put on a show in their Christmas Day showdown but the Los Angeles Lakers got the last laugh as they picked up a thrilling 115-113 victory on the road over the Golden State Warriors.

The NBA can really only respond by putting out a good product. The Christmas teams obliged for the most part this year, with the Lakers overcoming a game-tying 3-pointer from Stephen Curry with eight seconds left, getting the win on an Austin Reaves layup. James finished with 31 points and 10 assists.
