The NBA All-Star fan vote early look was released this week and I compare my ballot with what NBA fans think. We compare snubs, picks and captains. We also refresh the voting format because it can get confusing. A.M. Hoops is back baby!

The title says it all.

A short five game night to kick off the final week in 2019. Several young players impressed in wins as Michael Porter Jr. notched a new career high and Lonzo Ball hit 7 threes. Some old guys did pretty well too including LeBron James.

We had 6 games on Thursday and Luka Doncic returning headlined the night. We break down every single game including the worst shooting night of the year by any team in Brooklyn and the Timberwolves’ 11 game losing streak snapped.

Weird things happen on Christmas Day. Kawhi is clearly the best player on a court of great players, Giannis looks human, the Warriors get the biggest Christmas Day upset and so do the Pelicans. We go over every game on a special day for basketball.

11 games for your Christmas Eve morning! Ben Simmons dropped 17 dimes en route to a route in Detroit. The Spurs dropped 145 points against Memphis - the 2nd highest in regulation under Gregg Popovich. There's a lot to get to from Monday night.

Song: Rebelution, "Destress"

Five games to start this Christmas week in the NBA. Both L.A. teams were on the court without major stars. The Lakers lost at home to the Nuggets while the Clippers lost a fourth quarter lead without Kawhi Leonard at Oklahoma City. Jayson Tatum had a career high in Boston as the Celtics topped Charlotte. We go over every game from Sunday!

Song: The Smiths, “Hand in Glove”

We looked forward to this day on the NBA calendar for a while. Giannis Antetokounmpo put up 34 points while hitting 5 threes as the Bucks beat the Lakers. The Rockets and Clippers played a fun one in the other national TV game and four other teams were on the court. We cover it all heading into the weekend!

Song: Sade, “Nothing can come between us”

Nine games on Wednesday in the NBA! We talk the big national TV games between the Celtics and Mavericks plus the Heat and Sixers. There were even more big comebacks around the league and a drunk fan crashes Rick Carlisle's post-game press conference.

We had six games in the NBA on Monday night and it started with the Lakers losing for the first time on the road in 15 games. That means the Bucks and Lakeshow will matchup off a loss on Thursday. The night ended with the Clippers blowing out the Suns in DeAndre Ayton’s debut after his PED suspension. We go over all that and everything in between.

Song: Fugazi, “Styrofoam”
