How to watch the NBA playoffs
The remaining NBA playoff games are being shown across three channels: ABC, ESPN and TNT. You can watch the games with a cable subscription or a live TV streaming service.
Three of the five major services offer all four channels. Fubo lacks TNT, which airs a big portion of the NBA playoffs including the Western Conference finals, making Fubo a poor choice for hoops fans. You can, however, watch TNT broadcasts of playoff games with Max.
