1 day ago | hoopshype.com | Mark Deeks

Well, that wasn’t supposed to happen. A month ago, the Cleveland Cavaliers were closing out a regular season in which they dominated the Eastern Conference. Their 64-18 record saw them win the first seed, a whole three games ahead of the defending champion Boston Celtics, with a big gap to the New York Knicks (13.0 games back) and Indiana Pacers (14.0) in third and fourth respectively.

The 2025 playoff insanity continues. It was deja vu for the Knicks all over again, as they trailed by 20 again to once again rally in the fourth and beat the Celtics in Boston to take a 2-0 series lead. Mikal Bridges stole the ball again to secure the win for New York just like he did at the end of Game 1. Bridges scored all his 14 points in the fourth quarter, while Karl-Anthony Towns bounced back with 21 points and 17 rebounds.

The Nuggets pummelled the Clippers in Game 7, outscoring the Clippers 99-75 from the second quarter to the end. Nikola Jokic had a pedestrian statline (for him) with 16 points, 10 rebounds, eight assists, but that didn’t matter. All of the Nuggets’ starters finished with at least 15 points, and Russell Westbrook chipped in with 16 points off the bench. Kawhi Leonard led the Clippers with 22 points on 13 shots, but James Harden struggled in another Game 7 with seven points.

Blowing out an Achilles is a devastating injury, no matter the age. But for a veteran NBA player, it can almost be a career-ending moment. As every basketball fan knows by now, nine-time All-Star Damian Lillard tore his Achilles during Milwaukee’s recent (brief) playoff run. He got surgery on the injury on Friday, May 2, and is expected to miss the entirety of 2025-26 as he recovers.

Marcus Fizer: I love seeing different things that LeBron does at this age, man. You know, people talk about the longevity now, and I’m like, that’s all we ever heard as athletes: getting longevity. But, you know, so many people hate LeBron. So now he’s in year 22; they want to talk about different stuff about steroids. And I’m like, it’s just the craziest stuff imaginable. If I could have done it—if a lot of other players could have played 22 years—I’m sure they would have.

Another day, another playoff thriller in the books.

Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 30 points, 20 rebounds, and 13 assists, and his future in Milwaukee will definitely be the talk of the NBA for the next couple months.
