We're not even at the All-Star Break, and yet this is a crucial game for the Nets tonight against the Thunder. The Nets sit just 0.5 games behind the Milwaukee Bucks for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, and this evening presents a winnable game for New Jersey.

With the MLB playoffs set to begin, there is a subtle difference in the air compared to start of any other postseason. In the NHL, fans can potentially look forward to a great Canadians/Bruins series that is not only exciting, but has a historical kick to it. Likewise basketball fans always have the chance to see if the Suns can finally get past the Spurs and football fans love seeing the rivalry of the Eagles Vs the City of Philadelphia when the Eagles so much as get tackled for a loss.
