Brooklyn Nets vs. Boston Celtics (League Pass, Live)

Top Storylines 1. Warriors and Knicks play the game of the night on ABC: Golden State has been nearly unstoppable since acquiring Jimmy Butler, winning 11 of their last 12 games. New York had lost three of four before a buzzer-beater from Mikal Bridges in their most recent game, sitting third in the Eastern Conference.2. Pacers and Bucks renew rivalry: These conference rivals always face off at least four times every season, and this is their final matchup. Indiana needs a win to split the season series, but recent results are far from encouraging. Milwaukee has won 18 of their last 25 games over Indiana.3. Pesky Pistons look to slow down the Thunder. Detroit has been one of the best teams in the NBA over the last month, winning 12 of their last 16 games. They’ll have to keep playing like that against OKC because they have the best record in the Western Conference by 11.5 games.
