What channel is Cavs vs. Knicks on today? Time, TV schedule, live stream to watch Game 3 of NBA Playoffs series originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Cleveland Cavaliers know what it's like to have their backs against the wall. They lost the first two games of their series against the Detroit Pistons before winning four of five and advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals.
Whether that kind of comeback is possible against the New York Knicks is a legitimate question. Saturday marks a full month since the Knicks' last playoff loss, and the Cavaliers missed an opportunity to steal a game on the road when they collapsed down the stretch in Game 1.
Cleveland will need to win a game on the road at some point to advance, but first, taking care of business at home has to be the priority to make sure the series gets back to New York.
With a 6-1 home record in these playoffs, the Cavaliers are hoping to avoid a 3-0 series deficit that would turn the conference finals into a Knicks coronation.
Here's what you need to know about Saturday's Game 3 between the Knicks and Cavaliers, including broadcast information and start time.
