Nets vs Raptors NBA playoffs live stream reddit for Game 1
By Jerry Trotta
Here’s how you can watch Game 1 of Nets-Raptors on Monday.
After a thrilling eight-game tune up, the Brooklyn Nets’ playoff journey in the NBA bubble will officially commence on Monday.
Though interim head coach Jacque Vaughn’s side is riding high after a 5-3 finish — which could have easily been 6-2 had Caris LeVert nailed his jumper at the buzzer against Portland a few nights ago– they will run into arguably the hottest team since the restart in the Toronto Raptors.
Similar to Brooklyn, the Raptors put together one of the better runs of any squad throughout the seeding games, notching a 7-1 record while playing suffocating team defense along the way.

Tip-off from Orlando is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. ET and will be broadcast nationally on ESPN with live streaming available on the Watch ESPN app. Additional streams can be found on Fubo TV, which offers a free trial. If you choose to use browse reddit for streaming capabilities, be sure you use the legal streams only.
Fans in Brooklyn obviously won’t be expecting the depleted Nets squad to upset the East’s No. 2 seed, but their impressive run of form likely has them expecting the team to keep most of the games competitive.
For that to happen, the team will need bubble standouts LeVert, Joe Harris and Jarrett Allen to keep up their excellent play. The former is developing into a star right before our eyes, averaging 25 points and 6.6 assists per game on 47.5% shooting. Harris is posting 20 points and drilling a ridiculous 54% of his 3-point attempts. The latter, meanwhile, has been a force both on the boards and protecting the rim, logging 11 rebounds and 1.2 blocks since the season resumed.
If there’s one advantage the Nets will have entering this daunting first-round matchup, it’s that they will be playing with house money, as seemingly every analyst and pundit is predicting a Raptors sweep.
We all know that Brooklyn has embraced its role as a massive underdog, so expect the team to continue its resilient ways and play as if they belong on the court with the defending champs.
