The NBA has truly done an amazing job with Christmas Day basketball, with five can’t miss games every single year. It is truly a Christmas treat to be able to watch Paul Pierce vs. Joe Jonson, Kobe vs. Melo, and LeBron vs. Durrant all in one day. One other player that will be suiting up this Christmas day is the one, the only, Rasheed Wallace. Although Rasheed probably makes an annual appearance on Santa’s naughty list, he is extremely entertaining. This week’s Video of the Week will look back at Rasheed’s antics throughout his long career, which is sure to bring a few laughs. Hopefully Sheed will provide us with a little Christmas comedy, and find something absurd to do on the court against the Lakers. Click here to view the video on YouTube. -Langer
