Nets vs Raptors game 4 is moments away, starting at 6:30 p.m. ET today (Sun, August 23) on TNT. Full series channels and showtimes details can be found below.

It's time for the Nets vs Raptors live stream, bringing us a potentially decisive game 4, where we will see Toronto attempt to sweep the series and move onto the semifinals of the Eastern Conference of the NBA playoffs. The defending champions have looked impressive in their wins against Brooklyn, but the Nets won't go down without a fight. 

If the Raptors manage to prevail, it will seem like the foregone conclusion, since they are the No. 2 seed in the East (behind the Bucks). They also won most of their seeding games in the NBA bubble. The Nets are also short-handed, with injuries docking their roster.

Meanwhile, the Raptors remain almost 100% healthy and whichever team they get in the semis (Philly or Boston) will have a tough task ahead of them. 

So, here is everything you need to watch the Nets vs Raptors live stream of game 4  and the rest of this Round 1 series as well.
