CJ Mcolumn carried the Blazers with 30 points in game 6, and 37 in game 7 to lead the Blazers into the Western Conference Finals against the Golden State Warriors.
Tied at 90 in game 7, Kawhi Lenord hit one of the most iconic shots on NBA history with a fade-away long arching shot that bounced on the rim for times, before falling through to propel the Raptors into the Eastern Conference Finals against the Milwaukee Bucks.
NHL: Round 2 is over
Hurricanes Over Islanders in 4.
Bruins over Blue Jackets in 6.
Sharks over Avalanche in 7.
Blues over Stars in 7.
News and notes:
The Stars and Blues game was one for the ages, as it went to double overtime, before Patrick Maroon scored to end the series.
UPDATE:
The conference finals have started.
In the east, the Bruins took the first two games at home over the Hurricanes 5-2 and 6-2, to take a 2-0 series lead.
In the west, the Sharks took game 1 at home 6-3 againts the Blues. Game two is tonight from San Jose at 9:00PM.
Mets: 19-20
Overall, the Mets have been in an awful stretch lately. Their offense and their bullpen have been inconsistent as of late which is why the Mets have fallen under .500.
However, the Mets took both games this weekend over the Marlins and have 14 more straight games against sub .500 teams, including these same Miami Marlins (10-25) so expect to see some more Mets wins in the near future.
