As the game 5 NBA Playoffs live stream showed us, the Celtics could not follow the game 4 loss with a win — breaking their streak of wins following losses this post-season. The big star for the Warriors in game 5 was Andrew Wiggins, whose post-season has been a palate cleanser from his history. Wiggins, who has demolished Jayson Tatum on defense, posted a double-double, with 26 points and 13 rebounds in game 5. Oh, and then he sealed the game with a dunk over Derrick Wright. Speaking of Tatum, while his 27 points did lead the Celtics, his fourth quarter was a sad state of affairs. He missed four of five shots in the final frame, and posted a record nobody wants to have: most turnovers in a single post-season. Boston is likely most upset because Golden State beat them without a strong performance from its golden child: Steph Curry only contributed 16 points to the overall total. If the rest of the Warriors can lift this team up to win, with a middling performance from Curry? That’s not good for Boston’s chances of forcing a game 7. The Celtics kept making mistake after mistake — with 10 missed free throws and 18 turnovers — and they’re likely hoping that their hometown crowd can push them to be the better version of themselves. But the bettors think this series could go the distance — and these numbers have stayed pretty similar since game 5. Per DraftKings Sportsbook, the Celtics are the current 4-point favorite with a -175 moneyline (wager $175 to win $100). Golden State is an underdog at +150, so you wager $100 to win $150. The over/under is 210 points. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the Warriors vs Celtics live stream.

Warriors vs Celtics live streams in the U.S.
The game 6 Warriors vs Celtics live stream is on ABC and ESPN3 at 9 p.m. today (Thursday, June 16). 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).
