I don't care if a group of fans cry about it every year. But watching the Knicks fail on Christmas is a tradition. Welcome to the Silver era.

Celtics vs Raptors is a much better match-up than Celtics vs. Nets. It will be more about basketball with 2 equally matched opponents vs Kyrie and scrubs coming to play against his old team. Let's just all be thankful that the league isn't forcing Nets vs Knicks down our throats.

Okay Boston fans, circle that date, the night before thanksgiving. Lets see if the theory that Kyrie is scared to play his former team comes true.

Please keep this same energy in 3 months time. We'll see who has a pack of scrubs on their roster.

:lol:

@ equally matched opponents. Raptors without Leonard are still better than yall. Stop it.

Care to place an avatar bet on the November 27th Nets/Celtics game? Fan of the winning team chooses the loser's avatar for a week. How about it?

"F*** Thanksgiving!" - Kyrie Irving last Thanksgiving.

If he doesn't play it might be he's scared but it also might be he is just very angry about Thanksgiving.

It’s a little hard to take them seriously while still paying Heyward to be a star when he’s closer to Chandler Parsons without the criticism...

You can add that to the list of their hilarious quotes like all those “Fultz n IT gonna run y’all out the gym next year!” posts...or those “watch when we land [insert several all-stars] with our draft picks!!!”

I mean, Boston couldn’t even land Durant a few summers ago with the help of Tom Brady and now they lose Kyrie to Brooklyn after supposedly winning a chip or a ‘dynasty’ off our draft picks...which likely won’t happen before Tatum, Brown become RFAs...or ever now that AD publicly disowned them as an option. So, that’s KD, AD, Kyrie who willingly said no to Boston in the last five seasons. It’s actually understandable for them to be mad at this point. They went from talking AD + Kyrie to Kemba and Kanter....

Time will tell.

Is it a clippers or lakers home game?

If it’s a clippers home game, it will be very interesting to see what kind of crowd shows up. If it’s not mostly lakers fans you’ll know the clippers are gaining some traction in la

Lakers vs Clippers will be hype

Kinda bummed the first Clippers game of the season isn't in Toronto for the ring ceremony.

Dumb traditions. Why should preference be given to certain teams based on tradition? Cowboys and Lions always playing on Christmas made for awful games all the years Detroit was terrible.

Code: Select all
12PM - BUCKS VS. SIXERS (ESPN) 2:30PM - CELTICS VS. RAPTORS (ABC) 5PM - ROCKETS VS. WARRIORS (ABC) 8PM - CLIPPERS VS. LAKERS (ABC) 10:30PM - PELICANS VS. NUGGETS (ESPN)

I think the LA game will be an afternoon game as that’s considered the prime spot on Christmas.

Winners will be Bucks, Celtics, Rockets, Clippers, and Nuggets.
