The NBA’s 2021-22 schedule is starting to leak, beginning with the Christmas Day slate of games. The Knicks were conspicuously absent from the Christmas schedule of late, but now that they are fresh off a surprise playoff appearance, we all knew that was bound to change.
And so it has! The Knicks are back on Christmas! Their opponent: the very same team that knocked them out of the playoffs last season.
The Hawks, eh? That’s a hot ticket! You probably don’t need to be reminded what Atlanta did to the Knicks in the playoffs.
