Eastern Conference today
The eastern conference is about to come to a end. With which looks like the Orlando Magic are going to capture their 2nd Eastern Conference title in their franchise history. They are leading the heavily favored Cleveland Cavaliers 3 games to 1. The Cleveland Cavaliers were predicted to win the series in 5 games. Which is 4 games to 1. But it looks like the Orlando Magic are going to win in 5 games. The Cleveland Cavaliers finished with the best record in the entire league winning 66 games out of 82 games. The Magic won 59 games. And they were the third seed in the conference behind the Boston Celtics and the Cavaliers. The Orlando Magic have had a tough journey so far. They played the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round and at one point the 76ers led the series 2-1 actually putting a scare in the Magic. Then the Magic stepped it up and won three strait ending the series against Philly 4-2. Then Orlando played the defending champs. The Boston Celtics who were also favored by many people to win the series. The Orlando Magic took a 2-1 series lead but then lost 2 strait to Boston putting the Magic on the brink of elimination. The magic though ended the series winning 2 strait and winning the series 4-3. The Cleveland Cavaliers have had a easy road to the Eastern Conference Finals. They swept the Detroit Pistons in the first round winning every game by double digits. Then they faced the Atlanta Hawks in the second round and also swept them winning every game by double digits too. Then it was the matchup between the Cavaliers and the Magic. The Magic stole game one with a one point win. The Cavaliers LeBron James is the reason why the Cavaliers tied up the series 1-1 by hitting a 3 point buzzer beater. Now the series shifted to Orlando for games 3 and 4. The magic won game 3 by a score of 99-89 taking a 2-1 series lead. Then game 4 came which was a needed win for both teams. The Cavaliers needed it to tie the series. And the Magic needed it so they can take a commanding 3-1 lead. The Magic won game 4 in overtime to take a commanding 3-1 lead back to Cleveland for game 5. The final score was 116-114. I predicted the Magic to win the series in 6 games. And it is looking that way if Cleveland wins game 5 and Orlando wins game 6.
