Here is how to watch a pivotal Game 3 between the Celtics and Nets.

Plenty of questions surrounded the Brooklyn Nets before the postseason series against the Boston Celtics began. So far, all anyone has seen is pure dominance.

The Nets scored 130 points in a Game 2 blowout win and none of the big three stars had to play 30 minutes. Jayson Tatum only scored nine points for the Celtics and it was clear Boston is just outmatched.

But the series heads to Boston for Game 3 and it is possible the home crowd can inspire this Celtics bunch. However, the opponent may still be too strong.

Nets vs. Celtics: How to watch Game 3

Date: Friday, May 28
Time: 8:30 p.m. ET
Location: Boston, MA
Venue: TD Garden
TV Info: ABC
Live Stream: WatchESPN, fuboTV

The action gets underway Friday night at 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC. This is the showcase game of the night and the Celtics are trying to prove they can in fact hang with this Nets team.

The loss of Jaylen Brown is the problem in Boston. Tatum is still young and if he has an off night, veterans like Kemba Walker and Marcus Smart have to step up. Trying to have one player take down the Nets is impossible.

James Harden, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant could all lead a team to a championship in a solo act. Having all three together is almost unfair and as long as they remain healthy, there is no reason they should not make an easy run to the Finals.

Can Boston pull off an upset? Winning Game 3 is not out of the realm of possibility, but winning the entire series is quite the tall task.
