At the risk of repeating a prediction gone wrong, the Lakers look like
they're in the wrong place at the wrong time again. The Cavaliers
aren't just upset, they are, as Shaquille O'Neal once put it, "upset to
the highest level of upsetivity."
Aside from their usual complaints (the league conspiracy to steal LeBron James, the media conspiracy to make it look like LeBron might leave), they're railing against an All-Star selection process that gave them one, to Orlando's three and Boston's two -- which then became three when the Celtics' Ray Allen, not the Cavs' Mo Williams, replaced the Magic's Jameer Nelson.
The Lakers won the first meeting, 105-88, but Cleveland didn't have Delonte West, who's still out, and Zydrunas Ilgauskas, who's back.
Kobe Bryant, who hounded James all over the floor, will likely try it again, making this worth watching for that alone.Aside from their usual complaints (the league conspiracy to steal LeBron James, the media conspiracy to make it look like LeBron might leave), they're railing against an All-Star selection process that gave them one, to Orlando's three and Boston's two -- which then became three when the Celtics' Ray Allen, not the Cavs' Mo Williams, replaced the Magic's Jameer Nelson.
