SB Nation Reacts: Christmas Day games

Despite the false start last night for the Houston Rockets, the NBA is back in full swing just in time for the annual games on Christmas Day. That was the theme of this week’s SB Nation Reacts poll also.

We asked our national voters which Christmas Day game they are most excited about, and here are the results:

I also took Mavericks-Lakers, and it makes sense this game would be the winner, with the Lakers bandwagon being hitched to Luka Doncic and the Mavs for Christmas Day. I also think Nets-Celtics will be a fun game, and Clippers-Nuggets should be a good one too.

I have no idea how Warriors-Bucks finished third. That’s probably the game I have the least interest in seeing, since the Warriors didn’t look great in their opener and I don’t love watching Giannis Antetokounmpo play.

It’s also sad to not see the Rockets on the Christmas Day lineup, a slot they’ve had in the past, but with all the turmoil surrounding the franchise right now, it’s not surprising they weren’t selected.
