Tonight's Raptors-Celtics live stream may prove the old truth that "Game 7" is the best two words in sports. Yes, both teams return to the court after an epic Game 6 that staved off Toronto's annihilation (get it? They're the Raptors) and forced this Friday night showdown. These "bubble" NBA playoffs are certainly rough.

There is a serious list of things to do to keep Boston from dropping this series in which they were leading, starting with hampering Kyle Lowry's performance. If Lowry scores less than 20 points, as he has throughout this series, Boston has a chance to win. The other big task is to make sure Kemba Walker is not neutralized by the Raptors.

If the Raptors want to have a chance to win again, they will need Pascal Siakam to step up.

Fred VanVleet is not a steady member of the offense, but if he can contribute and take some defensive pressure off Serge Ibaka, he could help the power forward's 3-point shooting chances.

With a virtual private network (VPN), you can pretend you're surfing the net from your local area (or anywhere else that won't suffer a power outage) and access the same streaming services you've already paid for.

Not sure which VPN is right for you? After testing a variety of services, the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers great speed and excellent customer service. However, there are other VPN options out there. Here are our top picks.

The decisive Raptors-Celtics Game 7 will air today (Saturday, September 11) at 9 p.m. ET on TNT; NBA playoff games will air on TNT, ESPN, or ABC.

If you haven't already cut the cord and have a cable package, you can watch Raptors-Celtics on Sling TV. I also like fuboTV, which is popular with sports fans, but not TNT.

They are two of our best streaming service list picks; ESPN and TNT are both included in the $30 Sling Orange package. Other NBA 2020 playoff games will be broadcast on ABC, so opt for Fubo for access to broadcast channels (Sling does not have ABC).

Also beginning: basketball fans in the UK will have to go all night (and early morning) as tonight's Raptors-Celtics live stream begins at 2 am BST. The game will be broadcast on Sky Sports, and those who don't have Sky Sports can pick it up from Now TV, with prices starting at £9.99.

The NBA League Pass is also available in the UK for £42.99 for the rest of the year and allows you to watch all games without blackouts.

Canadian hoops fans can watch a live stream of Game 7 between the Raptors and Celtics on TSN. Specifically, the game is broadcast on TSN1.

NBA League Pass is also available in Canada.
