NBA 2012 Christmas day schedule

Merry Christmas to you and your family today! The NBA has a full slate of games on deck for you to enjoy starting at Noon EST/9 AM PST on ESPN with Celtics vs. Nets live from Barclays Center.

Check out the rest of the schedule!

Some of the story lines to watch for today;

• Steve Nash will be playing his second game this season for the Lakers. The Lakers had a decent outing on Saturday against Golden State but can they carry that momentum against the Knicks? Am I the only one feeling robbed with no “Inside the NBA” today? Still the best show hands down!
• The 2012 NBA finals rematch between the Thunder and Heat. The Thunder had a slow start but have been white hot as of late. The team is coming off of a recent 11 game winning streak.
• The Clippers are the hottest team in the NBA right now going for their 13th win in a row tonight. Denver has faltered out the gate but have won four of their last five including wins against the Grizzlies and Spurs.

Side note, am I the only one that will miss “Inside the NBA” today? ESPN and ABC’s coverage doesn’t come close…

Merry Christmas to you and yours!
