The 2024 NBA Playoffs are in full swing and it's time for the Conference Finals — AKA the NBA's Final Four! There's just the Mavericks, Timberwolves, Pacers and Celtics left in competition for the final now.

Fans can watch the game for free by using the free trials offered by DirecTV Stream and Fubo TV. If both of those options have been used, then fans can get a discounted Sling subscription to livestream the NBA playoffs.

The tournament format was introduced in the 2020-2021 season, and in July 2022, the format was made a permanent feature of the postseason. The bracket for each conference is as follows: The 7^th and 8^th place teams play each other, and the winner becomes the 7-seed. The 9^th and 10^th place teams play each other.

Six teams from each of the two conferences automatically advance to the playoffs based on regular season winning percentage, while those teams finishing seven through 10 from each conference compete in the play-in tournament to determine the final two playoff seeds.
