The NBA Cup concludes tonight with a showdown between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs in Las Vegas.
In the process of dashing the Portland Trail Blazers’ Cup dreams, the Spurs emerged out of West
Group C, dubbed the Group of Death. Then they eliminated the Los Angeles Lakers and Oklahoma City Thunder in their first two knockout-round games. The Knicks qualified for the knockout rounds after winning East Group C. Then they tallied double-digit wins over the Toronto Raptors and Orlando Magic to stay alive.
It’s all set the stage for tonight’s final. Will Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs take home Cup glory? Or will it be Jalen Brunson and the Knicks? Time to find out!

This is your thread to talk about the action with fellow fans! Here’s what we ask in our discussion threads:
- Stay on the topic of the game during official Game Day threads. We ask that the focus be a little tighter because everyone is gathering for the same reason, the game that unites us all.
- Don’t troll. Talk about basketball, not other commenters. Be smart and charitable—or at least honest and relatable—in the discussion. Friction happens, but treat this like your living room, not an anonymous message board. (Also avoid the classic internet trolling techniques: overt snark, comment repetition, etc.)
- Obviously no language that diminishes people based on race, gender, orientation, and the like is allowed. If you’re going to insult the W*rriors, at least be creative.
- Blazer’s Edge is a non-profanity site. Yes, even though referees exist.
