Introduction
The NBA playoffs are underway, and the first two games have been played. On the night of game three, it seems like the Philadelphia 76ers will take on the Brooklyn Nets in Brooklyn tonight (April 27). Tonight’s game is scheduled to start at 8:30 p.m. ET; however, it isn’t clear if fans will be able to watch it live on TV or online. Read on if you want more information about managing this game and other playoff action!
yes
Yes, there is an NBA playoff game tonight.
The 76ers will play the Celtics at TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. The game starts at 8 p.m. EST on ESPN, and it’s being billed as a “must-watch” matchup between two teams that have been very successful this season—but not so much in their recent meetings (the Sixers have won every game). This is what you need to know about tonight’s game:
- Time: 8 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (ET)
- Venue: TD Garden in Boston, MA; Home of the Boston Celtics
- Team colours: 76ers blue and red vs Celtics green, white and gold
Yes, there is a playoff game tonight!
The NBA Playoffs begin in April and last through mid-June.
There are two rounds of playoffs: the first round and the second round. The first round is a best-of-five series, where each team plays all other groups in their conference one time for two games to see who moves on to the next round. The second round is another best-of-five series where all winners from the first play each other (with the home-court advantage going to whoever finished higher). This process repeats itself until two teams are left standing—they will play at least five more games against each other until one team wins four out of seven and becomes champions!
no
Unfortunately, no NBA playoff games are scheduled for today, tonight or tomorrow.
Additionally, fans should be aware that there will be no NBA playoff games next week or next month.
It seems fair to say that there will not be any NBA playoff games at all this season. So you can confidently tell your friends that the 2019-20 season is already over and done with for all intents and purposes—there won’t be any more playoffs until 2021-22 at the earliest!
It’s not just this year: you should also know that in 2023 there won’t be any more playoffs because of a new rule that prevents teams from making the postseason in consecutive seasons (unless they win multiple championships). And since nobody has ever won even one title in their life, let alone two back-to-back… well… you get the picture!
No, there is not a playoff game today.
The Knicks and Pacers are playing a regular-season game, but there’s no playoff game today. You can watch it on ESPN at 7 p.m. or read about it in this article if you want to know what happened.
Tomorrow is the first day of the NBA playoffs. The Heat will be playing against either the Bucks or Pistons (or maybe both). If they win that series, they will have to play against two other teams from Eastern Conference: Celtics or Raptors (or both).
no, but go here to find out the schedule
If you want to watch the NBA playoffs, you’ll have to do a little looking. First, go to the NBA website to find out when and where playoff games are being played. From there, click on the “Schedule” tab near the top of the page and select “Playoffs.” Then look for whatever team you’re interested in seeing live play.
The second step is figuring out which games are going on tonight (or tomorrow). If it’s a day game (a game that starts before 6 p.m.), then check back at about 5 p.m., 6:30 p.m., or 7 p.m., depending on how far into May we are—earlier if we’re closer to June 21 than June 20; later if we’re closer to June 22 than June 21.* The reason why depends on how long Daylight Saving Time lasts in your city: if it lasts until 2:00 A&M local time every night this month (and it does), then check around 1 P&G Eastern Standard Time; otherwise,,, check around 2 a.m. EST instead!

Conclusion
You probably know the answer to this question if you’re an NBA fan. So many games occur every night of the week and sometimes even on holidays. The postseason is no different, with basketball fans tuning in to see who advances in their quest for a championship title.
So what does tonight have in store? Well, we’re here to tell you! Three matchups will occur between teams battling it out for an opportunity to take home some hardware later this month (or even sooner). Let’s start with Cleveland vs Indiana before moving on to Milwaukee vs Toronto, followed by Washington vs Toronto (just because we can’t wait another day without watching playoff hoops).
