Good morning, Nix fans, and welcome to another edition of the Nix Film School pregame show.

My name is Andrew Claudio, aka GMAC, and it is time to preview the second of a back-to-back, even though they were separated by one day,

against the Washington Wizards down in D.C.

Weird schedule, but the Knicks are just going to D.C. for a couple of days.

But we'll take it, especially if the games are thrilling as the overtime matchup that we saw on

Saturday night, in which Galen Brunson scored 55 points in a, like I said, a thriller against

the team that may only have five wins, but gave the Knicks their best effort and we'll be

getting one of their best players back. Kyle Kuzma, looks like he's going to suit up for the first time in about a dozen games

against the Knicks in this matchup on Monday night.

The 5 and 24 Wizards,

we've gotten jokes off at their expense,

but they were nothing to joke about on Saturday,

that's for sure.

Let's talk to an expert about the Wizards to see if that's the effort we should expect

tonight or if that was a one-off.

And joining me to talk about this matchup against the Wizards from the Believe in Wizards

podcast, returning guest, Mr. Matt Maderno.

Matt, how are you, sir?

Happy holidays.

I'm great.

I love getting jokes off at the Wizard's expense, too.

So this will be perfect.
