NBA Playoffs: Eastern Conference Update

Though it is a truly weak NBA Eastern Conference, give the Cleveland Cavaliers credit, as they have gone (8-0), (5-3) vs the spread) in winning the first two rounds of the NBA playoffs.

They completed a 4 game sweep vs the Atlanta Hawks for the second straight season, last year in the semi-final round and this one in the quarterfinals puts the Cavs in their second straight NBA semi-final series.

Cleveland will face the winner of the Toronto Raptors vs Miami Heat series which the Raptors lead two games to one after two overtime games and a down to the wire third game. Game four is in Miami tonight.
