My people, Christmas no go complete without some basketball gist!

Dem dey struggle as e be say dem fit lose their league status quicker than dem fink. With a record of 17-14, dem dey sit for seventh place for the East, and e no too sweet.

Now, the Cavs don win two games back-to-back, but the way dem allow 250 points no too good, even though dem get mad shooting skills. Darius Garland dey try, but if him calf no allow am play well, e go hard to beat the Knicks wey dey jam for home.
