New season under way as LeBron and the Lakers chase back-to-back titles. Here’s how to get a 2021 NBA live stream and catch every game online today.
The new NBA season is now under way, and while the league’s 2020/21 campaign will be a slightly shortened 72-game affair (compared to 82 games usually), unlike the last term, teams will be playing at their home arenas and some venues will be welcoming fans back. Read on as we explain how to get an NBA live stream and watch every basketball game online, no matter where you are in the world right now. Pre-season NBA action started on December 11, and there’ll be an All-Star break in March as per usual, but these technicalities aside the real question is: can anyone stop LeBron James and the Lakers from doing the double as champions? They beat a talented and supremely spirited Miami Heat outfit 4-2 overall in last season’s NBA Finals, and the Vegas bookmakers have the Lakers installed as firm favorites to do the double this year. With LeBron going nowhere and fellow superstar Anthony Davis now inked to a 5-year, $190m max deal that will keep him in Cali Showtime colors for the foreseeable future, it’s tough to argue against the pedigree of the iconic Los Angeles franchise. But they’ll face fierce competition in the Western Conference this season from fellow LA team the Clippers, who are led by Kawhi Leonard, as well as Steph Curry’s Golden State Warriors — no doubt desperate to bounce back from last year’s hugely disappointing season. Over in the East, last year’s runners-up the Miami Heat and Jimmy Butler are among the preseason favorites to go back to the finals — but the Milwaukee Bucks, who boast the reigning league MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in Giannis ‘The Greek Freak’ Antetokounmpo, no doubt have other ideas. A young and still emerging Boston Celtics team with burgeoning superstar talent in Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are also firmly in the mix, having swapped the services of Gordon Hayward for Tristan Thompson in the offseason.
