Summary

The Warriors have a home back-to-back tonight and tomorrow, facing the Lakers and Nuggets respectively. The squad has a great chance of extending their win streak to 12 before facing the Cavs on Christmas Day, especially with Draymond Green returning from his shoulder injury—it feels like just in time. NBA Reddit is all of over the place this Friday, with interesting stats and notes on players and teams the Locked on Warriors podcast hasn't been paying enough attention to this season. (Watch out for the Raptors.) Also, the Rockets think they can land LeBron in free agency. Finally, we're treated to a history of the NBA's relationship with Christmas Day, and a preview of what the Warriors can expect against the Cavaliers on Monday. Learn more about your ad choices.

0:36.9	I'm your host, Aliko Carter. I'm recording this at like
0:40.6	3 p.m. on Friday, so I apologize for the late pod. It's going to be a little short today,
0:49.0	you know, it being Christmas and, you know, me having plans. So I'm going to do quick previews of the games tonight and tomorrow against the
1:01.5	Lakers and the Nuggets, respectively, should be two good games.

1:23.5	And in the third segment, I'm going to go through a history of the NBA and Christmas because the NBA has owned Christmas for a long time as far as the sports leagues, the popular sports leagues are concerned.

1:41.8	Growing up as a child, I always looked forward to Christmas because of basketball.
1:47.2	And then when the warrior started getting basketball games on Christmas, again, in the early 2010s,
1:55.4	it became a tradition for me and my friend to either watch the game from home together or to go to the game. So Christmas is
2:03.0	big for the NBA and I want to get into that history a little bit. You can find my media on
2:08.5	Forbes.com. I have a few pieces coming out next week. I will let you know about those as they are
2:16.0	released. Got a lot of writing to do this weekend and next week.
