While the schedule has been pretty steady as of late, there will be no NBA Playoffs games on this Friday

Right now we’re in the heart of the NBA Playoffs. We’re at the point where both conferences are determining their champions, so we can find out who will be in the NBA Finals come June. One of the series that we’re being treated to is an exciting one featuring the Oklahoma City Thunder taking on the defending champion Golden State Warriors.

This series began on Monday night, with the Thunder coming away with a victory in Game 1 that was pretty stunning to some people. However, on Wednesday night in Game 2, the Warriors flexed those muscles of theirs once again to even the series up at one game apiece.

Now there might be some of you out there who, given the way the schedule has gone thus far, are wondering if Game 3 will be held on Friday night, following the every other day pattern. Unfortunately, though, you’ll have to wait just a little bit.

With both teams traveling from Oakland to Oklahoma City, they were given a few days of rest to get their legs back underneath them. However, you won’t have to wait all that long, because these two will be back on the court with one another this weekend, as Game 3 will be taking place Sunday night in Oklahoma City with things all tied up.

And of course, as another reminder, the Cavaliers and Raptors will play Game 3 of their series on Saturday with Cleveland holding a commanding 2-0 lead.
