All four rounds of the NBA playoffs are best-of-seven, and teams are not reseeded after each round. The team with the better regular-season record in each series will have home-court advantage for that series. All series are played in a 2-2-1-1-1 format, with the team with the better record hosting Games 1, 2, 5 and 7 (if necessary).

The Nuggets and Thunder will battle tonight in a pivotal Game 5. If Oklahoma City wins, Denver will be forced to win two straight to advance, something neither of these teams has done in this series. If Denver wins, they’ll have a chance to close out the series on their home floor in Game 6.

The New York Knicks can close out the series in Boston tonight against a Celtics team that will be without Jayson Tatum for the rest of the playoffs.
