The NBA Conference Finals began yesterday with the Celtics facing the Magic in he East. Last year had the Magic beating the Celtics in the playoffs. This year might be a bit harder with KG back in the Celtics Rotation. The Celtics would take game one this year, 92-88. The Magic seem to be vulnerable as Boston looks for another NBA Finals appearance.
The NHL also had their Conference Finals start yesterday as well. In the Western Conference, the Sharks had a hard time solving Antti Niemi of the Blackhawks and lost, 2-1. Niemi made 44 saves and allowed one goal. Blackhawks lead series, 1-0. Meanwhile the Eastern Conference had the battle of the upsets with the Montreal Canadiens playing against the Philadelphia Flyers. Th Flyers would crush the Canadiens, 6-0, in game one. The Great Jaroslav Halak seemed to be off his game tonight or thought they weren't facing elimination. He better be ready for game two.
P.S. Okay, how are the two lowest seeds in the East facing each other in the Eastern Conference Finals? They are both tied for point totals in the season with 88, have the lowest point totals for teams in the playoffs, and have made some great upsets in the playoffs. We can't have two Cinderella's crashing the ball.
