The first thing that pops out about the NBA’s 2019 Christmas Day slate is that the league finally won’t subject viewers to watching the sorry-ass Knicks just because they’re a big market. The Association’s marquee day of matchups was revealed Friday, and it will feature the Lakers taking on the Clippers, the Rockets traveling to face the Warriors, the Sixers hosting the Bucks, the Raptors facing off with the Celtics, and the Pelicans squaring off with the Nuggets. We all know why we’re here, so let’s rank these matchups from “pour yourself an extra cup of eggnog” to “excuse yourself from the rest of your family,” or whatever it is you do on Christmas Day.
