SAN FRANCISCO — The two biggest titans of the NBA’s 21st Century are meeting for the fourth time on Christmas Day.
Given the point each of them are in their careers, it could be one of, if not the last, time they match up on the NBA’s signature regular season day.
But until they retire, whenever that may be, they’re still the main attractions.
“The same way that Magic and Larry in the 80s, MJ in the 90s, Kobe for a long time, (in some ways) they’ve carried the league,” Lakers head coach JJ Redick said.
