2025 NBA Playoffs: Thunder Grizzlies TV schedule and how to watch – Basketball insider

The Oklahoma City Thunder will play 48-34 in the first round of the playoffs.

After the Thunder scored their best record in the league, the Thunder will see the first round as a tone with the Memphis Grizzlies, who screamed through the backdoor.

Memphis has a lot of talent, no doubt. Between Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Desmond Bane, it's enough to keep any series competitive.

The biggest question mark is where the team was fired after they were fired three weeks ago. They made a very intense effort in their first game against the mighty Golden State Warriors. Next is the main performance against the Dallas Mavericks.

Maybe it's a team with a new rental life, but there's only one way to find out.

Here are the dates, times and TV networks to appeal to the Thunder’s look to meet true championship expectations.

How to watch Thunder and Grizzlies/Mavericks

Game 1: Sunday, April 20, 1:00 pm ET. Watch on ABC.
Game 2: Tuesday, April 22, 7:30 pm ET. Watch on TNT.
Game 3: Thursday, April 24, 9:30 ET. Watch on TNT.
Game 4: Saturday, April 26, at 3:30 pm ET. Watch on TNT.
Game 5 (if necessary): Monday, April 28. Time and TV network TBD.
Game 6 (if necessary): Thursday, May 1. Time and TV network TBD.

Series format/stent

Each series follows the format of 2-2-1-1-1. This means that teams with home advantage will host the first two games, as well as Games 5 and 7 (if necessary). Weaker seeds will host games 3, 4 and 6 (if necessary).

The winner of the series between the Thunder and the Grizzlies will continue to play as the Denver Nuggets or the Los Angeles Clippers.
