The sixth conference semifinals game for the Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors tips off on tonight. As a quick refresher, most of the schedule for the playoff games were altered as players halted play to protest injustice sparked by the shooting of Jacob Blake. As games resumed on Saturday, it shifted most around to new dates and times. For the Celtics and Raptors, this coming game marks the second in a best of seven match up.

The series is tied up and tonight's winner moves on to the finals!

Tonight is Game 7 of the series and it tips off at 9pm. Like the rest of the NBA season and playoffs post-covid, the basketball games are taking place in the bubble at the Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida.

The playoff game will be exclusively on ESPN so you'll need to have a service provider with that channel included in the package.

If you subscribe to the NBA League Pass, you've most likely experienced local blackouts for the nationally televised games, hint: ESPN exclusives. Don't fret though, a VPN solution may help in keeping that League Pass subscription valuable if you don't want to switch or subscribe to a new service.

That's where one of the best VPNs (Virtual Private Network) can really come in handy. They allow you to virtually change the IP address of your laptop, tablet or mobile to one that's back in your home country which will let you watch as if you were back there.

VPNs are incredibly easy to use and have the added benefit of providing you with an additional layer of security when surfing the web. There are also a lot of options but we recommend ExpressVPN as our top pick due to its speed, security and ease of use.

While the NBA League Pass might work for some people, the better bet is probably to have access to ESPN for the nationally televised and exclusive games.

The four national broadcasters include TNT, ESPN, ABC, and NBA TV. Sling TV, will give you access to ESPN, TNT, and the NBA TV channel as an add-on that will also include the team channel of your choice. Pick the Sling Orange package when you sign up because it's the one that includes ESPN. The default Orange package will cost $30 a month, while the NBA TV add-on will cost another $17.99 a month. Luckily, the NBA TV add-on can be canceled at any time so once the playoffs are over you can end that cost. Sling TV is still the least expensive choice and probably easiest way to feed your NBA fix.
