Milwaukee Bucks are playing on Christmas for the second straight year. Yesterday afternoon, it leaked out that the Bucks are playing again on Christmas Day. This time, it is against a much bigger and more important opponent than the New York Knicks. This time, it is taking on the Philadelphia 76ers at Wells Fargo Center. Two perceived top teams in the Eastern Conference will be facing off against each other when all eyes are on the NBA. As you know, Giannis Antetokounmpo took Philadelphia’s lunch money on a regular basis. Look forward to him doing it again.

The Milwaukee Bucks will travel to Philadelphia to play the 76ers on Christmas Day, league sources tell ESPN.

Judging by the rest of the schedule on Christmas Day, it would appear that Milwaukee is playing at 2:00 pm on ABC. That would be awesome and works far better for my Christmas Day schedule. The other parts of the schedule are Boston-Toronto which will likely be the 11:00 am game, Rockets-Warriors will be the late-afternoon game then Clippers-Lakers in primetime as ABC expanded to three games last season. Hopefully, that stays the same this year because I don’t want to watch Milwaukee at an 11 am start time again. They deserve more than that.
