The NBA playoffs TV schedule for 2014 has the Indiana Pacers and the Atlanta Hawks playing Game 7 of their series and Indy is tied 3-3 in the matchup and that will be the first game on the docket before the Memphis Grizzlies host the Oklahoma City Thunder and OKC is ried and they are looking to avoid a 4-3 series loss with Game 7 coming on Saturday night and the games are on the NBA playoffs TV schedule.
The Hawks won Game 5 in Indiana and now the Pacers are in danger of being eliminated by the eighth seed in the conference and their game from Philips Arena starts up at 7 pm and that will be airing on TV and streaming online from the NBATV channel. The Memphis Grizzlies won Game 5 on the road as well and now they have Oklahoma City and Kevin Durant on the ropes, as they are up 3-2 and their game will be at the FedEx Forum and comes at 8 pm ET.
That will be the first of two games on the TNT doubleheader and that will be streaming online as well from TNT Overtime and is a huge game for Durant and Russell Westbrook, as the Thunder lost their series to the Grizzlies last season in the second round and this has been a hard fought series with close matchups and overtime games. The Grizzlies took Game 5 and now they have the chance to end the series up 3-2 and that would be a disappointing exit for a Thunder team that thinks they can win the championship.
The last game on Thursday night has the Los Angeles Clippers taking on the Golden State Warriors and that will be at Oracle Arena and starts up at 10:30 pm ET as the second game of the doubleheader. Chris Paul and Blake Griffin have been under the microscope since the Donald Sterling situation and now the team has the chance to advance and that would keep some of the focus off the players, as they could then wait until the first round is over before playing again and that could give Doc Rivers the time he needs to get things in order. The Sterling situation has taken away from the first round, which has been one of the best in NBA history.
The games on Wednesday night set up the Friday schedule and now that the Brooklyn Nets have lost Game 5 to the Toronto Raptors, they will be looking to even things up at 3-3 to force a Game 7 in the series. The San Antonio Spurs won over the Dallas Mavericks and now they are up 3-2, while the Houston Rockets pulled away from the Portland Trail Blazers to stay alive and now they trail 3-2 in the series with Game 6 coming on Friday night and that will be on ESPN. The network has three games, with the Spurs and Mavs on ESPN at 8 pm and the Nets-Raptors on ESPN2 at 7 pm.
