The Cavs and Warriors have met on Christmas each of the past two seasons, with the home team winning both games. The Warriors won, 89-83 in 2015 and the Cavs won a 109-108 nail-biter in 2016 with Kyrie Irving hitting the go-ahead jumper with 3.4 seconds left in the game.
The Cavs and Warriors have met in the last three NBA Finals, and are the favorites to meet once again in 2017-18.
