Look, the NFL tried to basically bully the NBA, and it really did ruin NBA last year, the NBA Christmas Day games last year.

But guess what?

Karma is a you-know-what.

And the NFL thought, hey, we're putting on the Cowboys and Patrick Mahomes.

We're going to be great.

Whoops.

Not so much, right?

Not so fast.

So instead...

you get what I think is the... I'll give you three games off...

Look, the five games are good, but I would argue three stand apart, and you could say four of the five are worth watching.

But even the opening game, Cavs-Knicks, I love watching Jalen Brunson play basketball.

And if you haven't seen him play this year, this isn't a waste of your time.

But the best game is the one, hopefully, that starts before you eat your Christmas dinner, and that is Spurs-Thunder.

Wemby, baby!

The best team in the league against the best player in the league.

or the most unstoppable player in the league.

I don't know if he's the best yet, but my God, when it is just, he does things you don't see other ordinary human beings do.

He's the alien, right?

He's the one of one, whatever you want to call it.
