Playing on Christmas Day is widely regarded as an opportunity for players to gain more visibility and acclaim. For many NBA stars, this has become an annual tradition. However, this isn’t the case for everyone.

A few minutes after the buzzer sounded on a 126-115 Celtics win, the Lakers — who were considerably outplayed in a rare December home game — couldn’t help but acknowledge the current gap between them and a true-blue contender. “I don’t think we’re where we want to be to compete against the top teams,” admitted LeBron James, who shot 5-for-14 from the field and banged his knee in a collision with Jaylen Brown in the second quarter (“It’s definitely sore“).

Getting to play on Christmas Day is an accomplishment in itself, a sign that your team matters in the NBA. Winning on this day is especially challenging, as squads typically face off against the league’s top contenders. Kobe Bryant, for instance, had a record of 6-10 in Christmas Day games. However, a select group of All-Stars managed to maintain an undefeated record on this special day. Leading this elite group is Chicago Bulls legend Scottie Pippen, who impressively never lost in his seven Christmas Day appearances. Читать дальше...
