It’s time for the Warriors vs Celtics live stream, which sees the latter coming off a frustrating loss. But while they could have gone up 2-0 in that NBA Playoffs live stream, their current situation (in the grand scheme of things) isn’t all that bad. The road team typically hopes to split their first road games, and now it’s up to them to defend their home court. Following a game 1 where the lead was traded back and forth like a draft pick, the Warriors took command in game 2’s latter half. The third quarter, as we’ve come to expect, was Golden State’s, and they out-scored Boston by 35-14, adding 21 points onto a 2-point lead from the start of the half. And unlike in game 1, the Celtics only scored four more points than the Warriors in the fourth frame. Dubs coach Steve Kerr credited their win to an overall “more engaged” team when speaking to the press after the game. The Warriors started their normal third-quarter blitz in the second quarter this time, with a 43-14 run that went from the first half to the fourth quarter. Steph Curry led the Warriors with 29 points, Jordan Poole executed with 17, Kevon Looney was right behind him with 12 and both Andrew Wiggins and Klay Thomspson added 11 to the tally. Boston’s offense was contained because fewer players managed to go double digits. Jayson Tatum (28 points) led the team, with Jaylen Brown (17) and Derrick White (12) supporting him. Back at home, the Celtics are the 3.5-point favorite with a -150 moneyline (wager $150 to win $100). Golden State is an underdog at +130, so you wager $100 to win $130. The over/under is 214.

Warriors vs Celtics live streams in the U.S.
The game 3 Warriors vs Celtics live stream is on ABC and ESPN3 at 9 p.m. tomorrow (Wednesday, June 8). If you’ve already cut the cord and don’t have a cable package? With the right pick from our best cable TV alternatives, you’ll be able to watch all of these games. But for as much as we like FuboTV, we haven’t been recommending it so far — as it’s without TNT and would miss earlier games. That said, it will have all the NBA Finals live streams. You could also get Sling TV, one of the best streaming services. ESPN3 and TNT are both included in the Sling Orange package, which costs $35 (and $25 for the first month), which is pretty low for live TV services (and the lowest rate for one with ESPN). Sling is a perfect place to watch all of the NBA playoffs, as ABC games will simulcast on ESPN3. Sling Orange gets you TNT, ESPN, ESPN3, and its Sports Extra pack gets you NBA TV. You could also pull down ABC with one of the best TV antennas.

Warriors vs Celtics live streams in Australia
Aussies can watch the Warriors vs Celtics live stream on Kayo Sports (opens in new tab), which has every one of the NBA finals games this year. But beware the time difference: you’ll need to go by the above lists and add 14 hours to convert ET to AEST — which would mean this game is at 11 a.m. AEST. Kayo offers a 14-day free trial for both its Basic and Premium plans, more than enough time to watch the playoffs. The Basic package costs $25 per month thereafter. The $35 per month Premium Kayo plan gives you all the same things as the normal plan, but it offers three simultaneous streams. The Basic plan gives you two streams at the same time. Not in Australia but usually a Kayo subscriber? You may need a little help from a service such as ExpressVPN (opens in new tab).
