76ers vs. Hawks Live Stream: How to Watch NBA Playoffs Game 3 Online

76ers vs Hawks Live Stream features top seed Philadelphia trying to establish their dominance while looking for 5 seed Atlanta to recapture their Game 1 magic in this NBA Playoffs Live Stream.

It's a cliché in sports to say, "It's all about the adjustments." That's why you hear it over and over again in this series for teams like the Sixers, who had to make some adjustments between games one and two.

In the series opener, the Hawks dominated Philly with 42 points in the first quarter, but Philly responded in Game 2 by holding Atlanta to just 20 points in the first quarter. The key adjustments the Sixers made were making Defensive Player of the Year candidate Ben Simmons the primary defender for Hawks All-Star Trae Young and protecting the basketball. Young was held to a playoff-low 21 points in Game 2 compared to 35 in Game 1, and the Sixers committed just one turnover in the first quarter of Game 2 compared to nine in the first quarter of Game 1.

Another area where Philly gained momentum was on the bench. Sixers backup guard Shake Milton had struggled throughout the playoffs, but Tuesday's second game was Milton's turn. With the Sixers behind by a point with 1:56 left in the third, Shake hit a three that drew a loud cheer. The Sixers' bench scored 26 of the next 30 points to help them win Game 2. Milton finished with 14 points.

Adjustments are good, but it's nice to have some constants. Joel Embiid is that constant for Philadelphia. Despite having a torn meniscus, Embiid, the MVP runner-up, scored 40 points in Game 2. The Sixers entered Game 3 with a 1.5-point advantage because of Embiid. The over/under was 224.

If you had to leave your "bubble" - or you are hit by a horrible local blackout - and you can't watch the 76ers vs. Hawks live stream on cable, you are out of luck! That doesn't mean you're out of luck. With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can pretend you're surfing the web from your hometown (or anywhere else not hit by 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.

In the U.S., the 76ers vs Hawks will air on ESPN and tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, June 11.

If you are already disconnected and don't have a cable package, you can watch this game on Sling TV and FuboTV. But while we love Fubo for many sports, it does not have TNT, which is a big no-no for the NBA season.

Both ESPN and TNT are included in the $35 Sling Orange package; ABC games are simulcast on ESPN3, Sling Orange includes TNT, ESPN, and ESPN3, and the Sports Extras Pack includes NBA TV.

Sling and Fubo are two of our picks for our Best Streaming Services list, even though we don't have ABC (although you can get it on one of the best TV antennas) because these games are on ESPN3, but here opt for Sling.

UK basketball fans have had bad luck with Sky Sports, and that bad luck will come back to haunt them tonight: the 76ers-Hawks game will not be broadcast on Sky, and the NBA game will be on ESPN.

NBA League Pass is an alternative in the UK.

Canadian hoops fans can add it to their cable package and catch the 76ers vs. Hawks live stream on TSN. The game is on TSN4.

NBA League Pass is also available in Canada.
