The Nets vs. Celtics live stream is coming soon, and it will tell us if we have a series in this first round playoff matchup. Boston looks to even things up while Brooklyn tries for a 3-1 series lead by the end of this NBA playoff live stream.

Joe Harris hit a corner three to give the Nets a 19-4 lead just 2:30 into the third in Boston. Brooklyn appeared to be well on its way to another route, but the Celtics would not go down without a fight. Jayson Tatum would not let them.

The two-time All-Star from Boston scored the next eight points in the quarter and 13 total to lead the comeback. He helped the Celtics take a 33-32 lead by the end of the first quarter, and that was only the beginning. Tatum scored 50 points in the game, his second of the postseason, to help Boston earn its first win in this best-of-seven series.

After his big first-quarter effort, Tatum came up clutch again late in the third quarter. He scored 11 points in the final five minutes to help Boston build a 17-point lead. The Celtics dominated play from that point on and would have to do so more if they were to return to Brooklyn with two games in hand each.

The Nets showed their humanity in Game 3 and will look to shake it off in Game 4. Durant and Harden scored 39 and 41 points, respectively, while Kyrie Irving struggled in Boston. The former Celtic was 6-for-17 for 16 points and just two assists.

The Nets are currently 7.5-point favorites heading into Game 4. The over/under is 228.5.
