It's a freezing cold morning here in North China and therefore a wonderful time to have an Open Thread! Some matchups have already begun; Knicks and Magic, Pacers v. Bucks and Celtics/Hawks.

In the afternoon, the compelling rematch between the Warriors and Clippers. There are a lot of fun games today (and many fantasy sports implications on the line!... well, not really. It's a bit early for that) so talk, laugh, and say those terrible things the lot of you love to say about that little alien-like character who runs around wearing green!
