In a huge matchup between the top two teams in the NBA’s Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers will look to remain the top seed over the Boston Celtics. The two teams are now both currently tied at 50-27 on the season with the Celtics getting the best of the Cavaliers in the last outing.
Home-court advantage for the 2017 NBA Playoffs is on the line. The Celtics have been a bit of the surprise team in the east, while the Cavaliers have been underwhelming since the all-star break. Lebron James is aiming to pull his team out of this rut and claim the top overall seed in the conference.
The Eastern Conference has been a bit of a breeze for the Cavaliers the past few seasons in the playoffs, but the Celtics have certainly changed the dynamic this season. Brad Stevens has to be considered for coach of the year, with Isaiah Thomas having a career year. If Russell Westbrook and James Harden weren’t having unreal seasons, Thomas would be a front-runner for the MVP award.
With all the playoff implications in the world, we should expect nothing but a classic game tonight from these squads. Here are all the ways to view this huge game tonight.
