What channel is Nets vs. Celtics Game 2 and when will the action take place? 

The Brooklyn Nets and Boston Celtics have a second date on Tuesday evening with control of their first-round NBA Playoffs matchup at stake.

Brooklyn won the first meeting, 104-93, in a game that saw Boston jump out to an early lead before the Nets stormed back.

Was that Celtics surge well and truly put to bed by Brooklyn? Or does Boston have another push in them as they look for a valuable road win?

Date: Tuesday, May 25
Time: 7:30 p.m. ET, 4:30 p.m. PT
Location: Brooklyn, NY
Venue: Barclays Center
TV Info: TNT
Live Stream: TNT Overtime, fuboTV

Kevin Durant and the Nets may have had a slow start in Game 1, but they showed resilience to weather the storm thanks to their star forward’s 32 points and 12 rebounds.

Kyrie Irving came to play with 29 points and 6 rebounds. Meanwhile, James Harden probably has more to give than his 21 points, but his 9 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 steals offered plenty.

More of that and Brooklyn can feel confident in their position as nine-point favorites. If those three are at their best, the Nets will have the clear edge.

The Celtics got 22 points from Jayson Tatum in Game 1. His average on the season was 26.4 points per game, so he’ll be looking to respond with more output. Boston has no hope of pulling off an upset if he’s not putting in big performances.

Without Jaylen Brown, Tatum will also need Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart and Evan Fournier to offer a lot more than their 15, 17 and 10 points, respectively, to keep up with Durant and company.

For Boston, the whole has to be greater than the sum of the parts.
