The Celtics and Wizards will battle in the Eastern Conference Semifinals beginning on Sunday. Here is how to watch Game 1 online.

The Celtics and Wizards begin play for a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals today. After losing the first two games to the Bulls in the opening round, the Celtics stormed back to win the next four games to advance. The Wizards also needed six games to get by the Hawks. Now these two upstarts continue their journeys to breakthrough in the East.

Both teams are led by dynamic All-Star point guards. Isaiah Thomas is putting up 23 points and 6 assists per game in the postseason to lead Boston. John Wall has arguably been the best point guard in the playoffs not named Russell Westbrook. Wall is averaging 29.5 points and 10.3 assists to power Washington. The matchup between these two will be critical in this series. The Celtics and Wizards split their four meetings during the regular season.
