Sunday’s sole NBA recreation was Recreation 7 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic. Every group had gained the three video games on their house courtroom. The stakes couldn’t be larger as one group would advance to the Jap Convention Semifinals to face the Boston Celtics. The opposite group would finish their season proper then and there.

As a fan or basketball, I revel within the concept of a future NBA Finals between the Magic and Timberwolves, two of the younger greats main their groups to the best degree. Looks like there may seven epic video games in that type of sequence.
