I guess there is only one thing to really say here:
The Miami Heat kept the game close in the first half but Ray Allen added a cushion with 5 three’s in the second half. The Celtics advance to face…Hold on one second. The Cleveland Cavaliers were to much for the Chicago Bulls to handle, even with Derrick Rose scoring 31 pts. The Cavaliers meet up with the Celtics starting on Saturday (TBD). The Dallas Mavericks keep themselves alive thanks to Caron Butler’s 35 pts. San Antonio still leads the series 3-2 and heads home to try and finish off the Mavs. The Los Angeles Lakers get a total team effort and steam roll the Oklahoma City Thunder taking a 3-2 series lead.
