How to Stream the NBA Conference Finals With Sling
After a series of upsets, the NBA playoff race is wide open. Here’s a look at the Conference Finals and how to stream with Sling.
The NBA Conference Semifinals are all wrapped up, and the four series added to an NBA Playoffs that’s been nothing short of electrifying. After losing Steph Curry to a hamstring injury in the first game of the series, Golden State dropped four-straight to Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves, who are heading back to the Western Conference Finals for the second year in a row. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City got a great series from Nikola Jokic and a banged up Denver team, who pushed them to the brink before surrendering in the second half of Game 7. Minnesota and Oklahoma City will begin their rematch of last year’s Conference Semifinal on Tuesday, May 20.
The combined result of the Eastern Conference Series’ is nothing short of shocking. Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers had a couple of dramatic comebacks to steal two games from the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers, but they had fully snatched their soul by Game 5. Indiana heads back to the Eastern Conference Final for the second consecutive year. Befitting their rivalry, the Celtics-Knicks series was harrowing. Led by Jalen Brunson, New York took the first two games on the road, but Boston looked poised to even things up before Celtics star Jayson Tatum suffered a terrible Achilles injury in Game 4. The Knicks capped off their stunning upset with a Game 6 blowout in the Garden, and they head to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in 25 years.
