2022 NBA Finals Preview

Golden State Warriors have marched ahead to the NBA finals from the Western Conference. The team beat the Dallas Mavericks in a 4-1 gentlemen’s sweep. On the other side, we have Boston Celtics from Eastern Conference knocking out the Miami Heat by 4-3.

Golden State Warriors aren’t new to NBA finals. It’s their sixth appearance (in the last eight years) in the NBA finals. While Boston is reaching the same for the first time in 12 years. Warriors are looking to win their fourth title in the stretch and the Celtics are seeking to add the 18^th title in franchise history.

Looking back at the history, both the teams first met way back in 1964 in which Boston secured the win in five games only. This time around, with the likes of Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson, the Warriors will start as favorites ahead of the first game on June 2^nd.

Watch Celtics vs. Warriors NBA Finals on FireStick in the US

Disney’s ABC has the official streaming rights to air every NBA final game in the home country. Cord-cutters should be looking at streaming services with the ABC channel on the list. And we don’t have any shortage of such streaming services at our fingertips. Let’s start the list with my favorite among the bunch – YouTube TV.

Note: The official streaming services are readily available to download from the Amazon AppStore. It will hardly take a minute or two to install them on Fire TV.

1. YouTube TV

If you are looking to cut the cord at home, you can’t go wrong with this one. Google YouTube TV offers a superior streaming experience, unlimited DVR storage, intuitive UI, and a native app for every smart device.

YouTube TV packs 85+ live TV channels in the library. You can watch all the Disney channels including ESPN and ABC to watch every NBA final game between the Celtics and Warriors. The pricing starts at $64.99 per month. YouTube TV is offering a two-week free trial to new users, and it is advertising a $10 discount for a few months as well. Get YouTube TV on FireStick using the link below.

2. fuboTV

While fuboTV beats YouTube TV with more live TV channels (over 250+), the final number does vary based on your area Pincode. The streaming service offers 250-1000 hours of DVR storage, 3-10 simultaneous connections, and more. Similar to YouTube TV, fuboTV too lacks on-demand content, and you are limited to watching live TV channels only.

3. DIRECTV STREAM

AT&T’s DirecTV Stream is right up there with big names in terms of offering and pricing. The Entertainment pack with 65+ live TV channels is priced reasonably at $69.99 per month while the Choice Plan at $85 per month can be quite expensive to stream NBA finals online. The DVR storage is capped at 20 hours in all plans. You need to pay an extra $10 per month for more storage.

4. Sling TV

Sling TV is the cheapest option on the list. It’s the most affordable way to stream all NBA final games between the Celtics and Warriors. Whatever plan you select, you must add the Sling Sports Extra pack to enable top channels like ESPN, ESPN2, NBA TV, TBS, TNT, and ESPN3 (games simulcast from ABC).

Sling TV is offering 50 hours of DVR storage and you can share the subscription on up to three screens at once. Sling TV used to offer a free trial but that doesn’t seem to be the case now. Instead, the company is advertising 50% off on all the plans for the first month to new signups.

5. Hulu + Live TV

Hulu’s highest plan Hulu + Live TV has all the required channels to stream NBA final games on FireStick without cable. Since Hulu is owned by Disney, it’s expected to carry all the parent company channels in the costliest plan.

The cheaper plans are useful for on-demand content only. They don’t come with any live TV channel support. You must go with the highest plan at $75 per month pricing.

Watch Celtics vs. Warriors NBA Finals on FireStick in Canada

The basketball phenomenon isn’t limited to the home country only. The NBA league is popular in Canada as well. If you are from the neighboring country and want to catch the live hardwood action, you need to go with a Sportsnet subscription that starts at CA$ 20 per month. The company’s SN NOW app is available on FireStick, iPhone, Android, and other major smart TV platforms.

SN NOW is purely an on-demand service that carries sports and entertainment content in the package. Head to the Sportsnet website and check the content on the offering.

Stream Celtics vs. Warriors NBA Finals on FireStick in the UK

NBA fans in the UK can tune to the Now TV service to catch every game via a native app on FireStick. Since Sky Sports doesn’t have a native app available from the App Store, you need to rely on the Sky Go app on Android or iPhone. The small screen experience is inferior to what we get on a big screen and that’s why you need to pay £33.99 for the Now TV service to enable all the Sky Sports channels on FireStick.

Watch Celtics vs. Warriors NBA Finals on FireStick for Free (Official Apps)

Thanks to fuboTV and YouTube TV’s generous free trial offers to new subscribers, you can easily watch all seven NBA final games on FireStick for free. You need to have a valid new email ID (the one that wasn’t used before on these platforms) and a credit card to get started.

First, sign up for the fuboTV service and watch one week of NBA action for free on the ABC channel. Cancel the free trial before the due date and move to YouTube TV.

Create a new account on YouTube and enjoy two weeks of free trial on it. Combine that with fuboTV and three weeks should be enough to cover all seven NBA final games online. You can cancel the free trial to avoid any monthly subscription charges to your credit card bill.

Even after repetitive warnings and reminders, most people simply forget to cancel the trial at fuboTV or YouTube TV and end up paying subscription charges. That’s why I recommend going with third-party sports apps to enjoy all Celtics vs. Warrior NBA final games without paying a single dime.

These apps do come with some questions around license though. For instance, they aren’t available to download from the Amazon AppStore and FireStickTricks can’t confirm their authority either.
