Preview Roundups
April 23, 2017
Cleveland at Indiana 1:00 PM ET
The Indiana Pacers suffered one of the worst collapses in NBA playoff history and attempt to avoid a four-game sweep when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday. Indiana built a 26-point, third-quarter lead in Game 3 before the Cavaliers rallied to deliver the third-largest comeback victory in postseason history.
Houston at Oklahoma City 3:30 PM ET
The Oklahoma City Thunder have their sights set on evening the best-of-seven first-round series when they host the Houston Rockets on Sunday. Oklahoma City recorded a 115-113 victory on Friday behind a team-first approach but Houston holds a 2-1 lead and vows to get off to a quicker start in Game 4.
Boston at Chicago 6:30 PM ET
Both Boston and Chicago have been unable to defend their home court so far in their Eastern Conference first-round clash, a trend the Bulls hope to stop when they host the Celtics in Game 4 on Sunday. After dropping the first two games of the series in Boston, the top-seeded Celtics took advantage of the sudden injury to Chicago point guard Rajon Rondo and coasted to a 104-87 victory in Game 3 on Friday.
L.A. Clippers at Utah 9:00 PM ET
The Los Angeles Clippers gained control of their Western Conference first-round series with the Utah Jazz, but not without paying a hefty price. The Clippers will forge ahead without star forward Blake Griffin - who is out for the remainder of the postseason - when they visit the Jazz for a pivotal Game 4 on Sunday.
