1) Return of Joe Johnson, Lance Stephenson sparks nostalgia, joy
This latest COVID-19 surge is sucking the joy out of this NBA season — and the stacked Christmas Day slate. No Luka Doncic (he just went into health and safety protocols yesterday), likely no Kevin Durant or Trae Young or a host of other players that would have suited up on Christmas. Every game, every night is impacted by players out because of positive tests, and makeshift rosters have led to some ugly basketball.
But through those dark clouds have poked rays of sunshine, pure moments of joy — like the return of Joe Johnson and Lance Stephenson to the NBA on 10-day hardship replacement contracts. They follow on the heels of Isaiah Thomas returning to the NBA (and getting considerable run with the shorthanded Lakers).
In a month of gloomy sports headlines, fans have reveled in the idea of a bit of nostalgia, of the comfort of seeing some old, familiar faces back on the court. (That always has been part of the draw for the Big3, where Johnson won an MVP award.)
Johnson made history on Wednesday night, stepping back on the court for the Celtics in 2021 — 20-years after a Boston team that still had Red Auerbach in a front office drafted him. The seven-time All-Star received a standing ovation when he entered the game.

There are 17 NFL officiating crews with eyes on the same players playing the same games in the same stadiums for the same 18 weeks every season.
But how is it that they see the games so differently?
Let me spotlight two crews, those of Carl Cheffers and Bill Vinovich.
Vinovich became an NFL referee in 2004 but suffered a health scare and did not return to full-time duty as a crew chief until 2013. Cheffers has been an NFL referee since 2008.
Cheffers has a high-penalty crew and Vinovich a low-penalty crew. And the difference between the two is stark.
Since 2013, the Cheffers crew has finished first among the NFL’s 17 officiating crews in penalties twice – and leads again in 2021. It has finished second in penalties twice more and third once. This crew also finished seventh in penalties once and ninth twice. During the same nine-season stretch, the Vinovich crew never finished higher than 12th in the league in penalties. This crew has finished last in penalties twice and again ranks at the bottom in 2021.
The Vinovich crew has assessed 128 penalties for 1,076 yards this season. The Cheffers crew has assessed 202 penalties for 1,709 yards. How is it possible there could be a 74-penalty difference between the two crews? How is it that one crew can assess 600 more yards in penalties than another crew? That’s walking off six complete football fields.
When Cheffers has shown up in NFL stadiums this season, his crew has assessed an average of 14.4 penalties for 122.1 yards per game. When Vinovich has shown up, his crew has assessed an average of 9.8 penalties for 82.7 yards. Again, how and why the disparity? The average of the NFL’s 17 crews is 12.3 penalties for 106.6 yards per game.
