Kudos for SVG for actually saying something funny haha.Stan Van Gundy has joined the league-wide debate on the NBA's Christmas Day schedule.
The Magic coach sarcastically suggested Saturday that the NBA go from five to 10 games on Christmas and start them at midnight.
Van Gundy has said the Magic were hit with a "hefty" fine for his critical comments last year about playing on the holiday.
"I have no comments at all on Christmas Day games," Van Gundy said. "My suggestion to my staff this morning was that I think the NBA is so important to Christmas that what we really need to do is increase from five games to 10, and we need to start them at midnight on what would have been Christmas Eve and play them all through the day so there's not a minute of Christmas Day where there's not an NBA game on TV. Because, it's great.
"The NBA is Christmas, to me, anyway. It's what it's all about."
