We don’t want to talk about the Cavs today.
Good morning, it’s Tuesday, December 16. The Cleveland Cavaliers are 15-12 and don’t play again until Wednesday. Let’s look ahead at today’s slate of NBA games.
Today’s game of the day
- New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs – 8:30 PM, Prime
Okay, there is only one NBA game on today, so there wasn’t exactly much of a choice. But this game has everything you could want as a fan.
It’s the NBA Cup Final. Maybe you don’t care about the Cup, but any sports fan can appreciate a championship game.
If that’s not enough, I’d suggest you watch any game featuring Victor Wembanyama, no matter the competition. The 7’4” beast is averaging 25.8 points, 12.6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game. He’s worth your time.
Furthermore, the Spurs just recently snapped the Oklahoma City Thunder’s 16-game winning streak. That makes New York’s current streak of five feel small. But the Knicks have been hitting their stride as of late and aren’t anything to scoff at. Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns and a strong supporting cast will make this a fun matchup.
The rest of the NBA slate
- There are no other games on tonight. So, if you have time before or after the NBA Cup, I’d recommend watching Wake Up, Dead Man on Netflix.
