Scroll down for all the ways you can watch the NBA playoffs online in a
number of countries around the world. But first, you should know that if you're abroad at any point during the postseason run, you probably won't be able to watch the hoops like you normally would at home.

This is because of geo-blocking, a digital restriction that means certain streaming services are only accessible in the region they're based in.

When this is the case, the simplest and most reliable solution is to use a
VPN service to change your IP address to a difference location. This will generally let you tune in to your local coverage, just as you would from
home, and means you don't have to trawl the sketchier corners of the internet for an illegal stream.
