The New York Knicks will be playing the Milwaukee Bucks at noon on Christmas Day! The Knicks will be looking to reach double digits in the win column, while the Bucks will look to improve on their stellar start to the season.

The New York Knicks will be facing a tough opponent:

The Bucks come into Christmas Day in second place in the Eastern Conference, behind only the Raptors. The Bucks are led by the Greek Freak, who is putting up nearly 27 points a game, and the Greek Derek’s running mate, Khris Middleton is contributing 17.6 points a game, to go along with four assists a game.

The Bucks are being led by a new coach this season, Mike Budenholzer, former coach of the Atlanta Hawks. The Bucks also recently made a semi big trade acquiring veterans George Hill and Jason Smith.

The Knicks are going into Christmas Day losers to the Atlanta Hawks on Friday, and are led by a plethora of young players. Tim Hardaway Jr. has been a constant for the Knicks this season, as it seems he is usually leading the team in points.

Recently Emmanuel Mudiay has stood out and has had multiple thirty point games within the past few weeks. Kevin Knox has been improving lately, and Luke Kornet has come out of nowhere the past week. While Noah Vonleah has been a constant for the Knicks this season.

Fizdale has been a great leader for the Knicks young core, and wants a win in the Christmas showdown versus the Knicks.

We all here at Empire Sports Media wish you a happy holiday season, and Let’s Go Knicks!
