Some good basketball action for your viewing pleasure this evening, on both the collegiate and NBA levels. For college hoop fans it does not get much better than Georgetown at Syracuse (7 p.m. ET, ESPN). The Hoyas and Orange have been rivals in the Big East for decades, and that is not changing any time soon.
↵For NBA fans, the game of the night locally has to be the New York Knicks hosting high-flying Blake Griffin and the Los Angeles Clippers (7:30 p.m. ET, MSG). Griffin, the acrobatic young power forward for the Clippers, is a human highlight reel, averaging 22.9 points and 8.9 rebounds in his first season. You never know when he will do something spectacular, and you probably don't want to miss a chance to check him out if you have not seen him.
