Would you cheer for the Lakers if there was a LA/MIA Finals?

As much as it pains me to say, if the situation was presented I would root for LA to beat the Heat.

Absolutely not. I would never cheer for them to tie us, I'd rather hand Lebron the trophy myself.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
People honestly hate Lebron so much that they'd rather see the Lakers win their 17th?
No way!

Read that last line again. One more time.

Lebron could have 10 times the public problems that Kobe has had due to his sex life and I still couldn't root for the Lakers in that matchup.

Hey now, I had a change of heart (see above).  Now I wouldnt say hate, more of a passionate dislike. And yes, just like you are thinking, I have no legit reason. Pure unjustifiable dislike.

LA/MIA is my finals nightmare but there is nothing in this world that would make me cheer for the Lakers in that situation or any NBA finals ever. Nothing.

Good for you for listening to reason!   The C's 17 banners is the only important stat in sports as far as I am concerned.  The day the Lakers tie will be the lowest sports-related day of my life.   I dread it.  It almost looks inevevitable.  Lebron and co. look to be the only hope standing in the way in this era.    Go Heat!

Well, the LOS ANGELES Lakers have only 11, but anyway  ;D

Frankly, I'd be rooting for the first-ever NBA Finals cancellation.

Maybe I should edit the question to: First Finals boycott?

I would support a boycott.
