Lakers News: LeBron James Admits NFL Owned NBA On Christmas Day

LeBron James has been a fixture on Christmas Day NBA games and picked up another win this past holiday season over the Golden State Warriors in what ended up being a thrilling game.

James helped lead the Los Angeles Lakers to a win against the Warriors, though the rest of the Christmas Day slate was filled with playoff-level hoops. However, the NBA had to compete with the NFL who streamed two games on Netflix.

The NFL featured the Kansas City Chiefs against the Pittsburgh Steelers as well as the Baltimore Ravens against the Houston Texans. While neither game was very fun to watch, the NFL pulled in significant viewers and ratings that gave them a claim to Christmas Day.
