3) Celtics @ Bucks
4) Suns @ Lakers
5) Warriors @ Kings

Apologies to Knicks and Grizzlies.

Nets fans don't even want to watch them play on Christmas

Need to see where Wemby goes but definitely the Knicks will get a game.

Good points. Wemby @ Lakers and the drama of the once and future blah blah blah and - since they did Bucks/C's two Christmases in a row - Celtics @ Knicks sound like a thing they would do.

With the Knicks being good, Celtics-Knicks in either Boston or MSG would be perfect.

Yeah based on the lack of star power in Brooklyn now, I would say game #1 could be the Porzingis bowl (Mavs @ Knicks).

My only other possible adjustment would be Suns @ Sixers #2, Grizz @ Nuggets in the #4 slot, and Warriors @ Lakers in the nightcap.

The league typically focuses on stars during these matchups, and De'Aaron Fox may or may not jump into a higher slot based on this year's playoffs. But maybe if attitudes continue to sour on Ja as a man, the league could play it safe with the Kings. For a different reason, the Clippers are probably on the outside looking in...they have star power but you can't count on PG and Kawhi both being available past opening night.

Wemby vs Chet. The Candy Cane Christmas battle.
