On today's Locked-on NBA Game Night podcast, the NBA nailed the Christmas Day slate, even if they snubbed the Eastern Conference.

When that final buzzer rings, you know it's time for a locked-on NBA game night.

All the post-game reactions to every game across the league, every single night.

With insights only the hosts that locked on can provide it's the

true NBA fans one stop for all the actions every game every night it's locked on NBA game

night tipping off now let's get it going on locked on NBA game night diving into the NBA, getting the schedule release coming this week in full, but I've already seen some sprinkles of news from Shamsarani of ESPN.

I'm Rowland-Siles host of Lockdown Thunder.

That's Swipa Cam, host of Lockdown Nuggets, and we're here bringing you at Lockdown NBA game night today.

And Swipa, I mean, the first thing you always look to when the schedule gets announced is the Christmas Day event.

the Minnesota Timber Wolves and the Denver Nuggets. And one thing I noted, the wolves and Nuggets
