Top 3 Games To Watch This Weekend
It's the middle of December and with the NBA, NHL and NFL in full force, there will be plenty of good games to pay attention to this weekend.
Here are the top three games to watch:
3. Golden State Warriors vs. Milwaukee Bucks
Technically it's Friday night, but that counts, right? The warriors will be at home - a place they haven't lost in 29-straight games. The Bucks, who are the only team to defeat the Warriors this season, come to town after celebrating on their home court in front of the warriors just a week ago. The Warriors have been vocal about how the Bucks may have over-celebrated when the Warriors feel they are the better team.
This is a revenge game for the Warriors, they are going to try to go for the throat in Oakland and start a new streak.
2. Green Bay Packers vs. Oakland Raiders
The Packers head to O.co Stadium for the first time since 2003. To refresh your memory, Brett Favre's father had passed away, so Favre went on to throw 399 yards and four touchdowns in a 41-7 defeat over the Raiders. The Raiders had no chance that game, as Favre had one of his greatest, emotion-filled games in his career.
This year, the Packers are fighting for a the divisional crown in the NFC North while the Raiders are trying to scratch their way into the post season. The Raiders are coming off a win over the Broncos and are feeling good. It'll be a hard-fought game in Oakland on Sunday.
1. San Jose Sharks vs. Chicago Blackhawks
Although the Sharks are sitting on a 15-14-1 record - good for seventh in the West - the Blackhawks and Sharks don't like each other. Patrick Kane had at least a point in 25-straight games until he went scoreless in Dec. 11 matchup against Winnipeg.
The Sharks just snapped their six-game losing streak and are looking to bounce back behind Joe Pavelski.
