The Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls will fight it out in Game 6 of their NBA Playoffs 2015 series on Thursday, with the Cavaliers just one win away from progressing to the next round. Tonight's game is a must win for the Bulls, and their reward for a home win today would be taking this series to a winner takes all Game 7 in Cleveland.
Game 6 of this series between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Chicago Bulls will start at 8 p.m. ET and takes place from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois. The game can be watched on TV on the ESPN network, although the game can also be watched online through live stream via the link provided below.
LeBron James improved significantly in Game 5, having not been at his absolute devastating best through the first four games of this series where he was shooting just 37.7%.
In Game 5 though the Chicago Bulls simply could not contain him and he finished the game with 38 points, 12 rebounds as well as six assists, as the Cavaliers stormed to a106-101 victory on Tuesday night.
That doesn't mean it wasn't close, and the Bulls gave Cleveland a fright in the final quarter of Game 5, almost coming back from 17 points down in the fourth quarter despite having Gasol absent with a hamstring injury.
They will be hoping that Gasol can comeback tonight and help them overturn the NBA Finals favorites.
The Chicago Bulls will be hoping to avoid elimination tonight, but history is not on their side, with LeBron James' team eliminating them from the postseason three times in the last five years, including in 2010, 2011 and 2013.
Jimmy Butler has said ahead of the game: "It's all about getting this win on Thursday with the same group of guys we have. I won't say we're desperate, but we know what we have to do. Take care of business at home and then get Game 7 on the road."
Tonight's big Game 6 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Chicago Bulls has a scheduled start time of 8 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the ESPN network. The game can also be watched online through ESPN live stream by clicking here.
