We have one of the most exciting playoff scenes in quite some time on our hands here. Which Western team will reach the NBA finals? Where does this accomplishment rank among LeBron's best and how does it help his legacy? The FPC NBA staff answers these questions in this article.

LeBron James and the Cavaliers defeated the Celtics tonight, 87-79. They handed Boston their first home loss of the postseason and the most costly one at that. This was a gritty, scrappy, physical low scoring defensive battle.

The Celtics were poised to celebrate a resounding upset win against the Cavaliers in a closeout road game Friday night.  That celebration will be put on ice as they were stopped in their tracks by a freight train named Lebron.

This playoff series is bound to be a tale of two underdogs. On one side, you have a third seed Philadelphia team whose best players are a rookie and a currently injured sophomore, expected to barely clinch the eighth seed before the season began. On the other, you have a sixth seed whose success is based on relatively starless team play and veteran experience.

4-5 playoff series this year is a rematch of last season's 2-7 matchup. Last season, the Cavaliers swept the Indiana Pacers. Despite this, every game was close and Cleveland could have easily lost that series. This year, we have two completely different rosters on our hands.
