What channel does the nba championship game come on tonight

The Boston Celtics secured a spot in the 2022 NBA Finals on Sunday with a Game 7 victory over the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals. It is the first NBA Finals appearance in 12 years for Boston, which will now face the Golden State Warriors in the best-of-7 championship series beginning Thursday.

The Warriors dispatched the Dallas Mavericks in five games to win the Western Conference title, securing their sixth trip to the NBA title series in eight years. They are seeking their fourth title in that stretch, while the Celtics are seeking their 18th title in franchise history.

After shutting down Steph Curry in a Game 5 loss, down 3-2, the Boston Celtics return to TD Garden in a must-win Game 6 of the 2022 NBA Finals.

For the first time in the series, Steph Curry did not lead all-scorers, but Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins delivered  21 and 26-point performances, respectively. The Celtics did not have an answer offensively and were unable to cross the century mark. Jaysun Tatum has 95 turnovers during the postseason, which is the most in NBA history. If the Celtics can't win Game 6 then the Warriors will celebrate another championship in Boston.
