One of the best things about this time of year is great NBA games every single night. Tonight’s lineup is no different as first we will see a dynamite matchup between the Brooklyn Nets and Chicago Bulls. Next up is one of the more closer series in the first round as it pits the Indiana Pacers against the Atlanta Hawks. The Jost Smith led Hawks will try and even up the series at 2-2. To cap off the evening Kevin Durant will lead his Oklahoma City Thunder into Houston trying to sweep the James Harden led Rockets.

OS REWIND: Russell Westbrook Out For Season With Meniscus Tear
Game four of the Bulls and Nets series was easily an instant classic and a game will not forget anytime soon. Chicago came back from down 14 in the 4th quarter and were led by a miraculous 23 points and some amazing clutch shots from Nate Robinson during the final frame. Nasty Nate will have to step it up again tonight as the regular starter Kirk Hinrich could be out an extended time with an injury. The real question is how will the Nets react with elimination on the line? Will Deron Williams be able to step up and keep his team alive? All of those pivotal questions will be answered tonight at 7 EST on TNT.
Later tonight we have the possibility of another sweep, as Kevin Durant tries to close out his former teammate James Harden’s Rockets. After the Thunder lost Russell Westbrook for the rest of the season many thought that the Rockets had an opportunity to get back into but Kevin Durant just wouldn’t let that happen as he dropped 41 points and some clutch baskets. If Houston were to win any game this season this would be their chance but we still don’t see KD letting that happen, as now his Thunder need to get past this round and focus on their next opponent. No doubt this will be a high-flying game as has been the case with this entire series. You can catch it on TNT at 9:30 EST.
