The Cavs survived a grueling seven-game series with the Orlando Magic and punched their ticket into the Eastern Conference semifinals for a matchup with the top-seeded Boston Celtics. Here's how to get tickets for every game in the series.
The Cavs hunkered down to orchestrate the greatest comeback in NBA Playoffs Game 7 history. Their reward is an Eastern Conference semifinals matchup with the top-seeded Boston Celtics beginning May 7. Tickets are available now.
The Celtics will likely be without power forward Kristaps Porzingis, who suffered a calf injury in the first-round series with Heat. The Cavs averaged just over a point per possession in the Orlando series, the second worst efficiency in the playoffs. Boston’s defense is even more of a mucky challenge with multiple lockdown defenders and veterans that live for the depths of the postseason.-- will also be underlying factors in the juicy semifinal. A whirlwind of emotion was released in Game 7.
Caris LeVert added 15 points, five rebounds and four assists off the bench, helping the Cavs outscore the Magic reserves for the first time in the series. Garland and Max Strus gutted out a combined 25 points. After escaping the first round, a hierarchy switch has been flipped. The pressure that was bearing down on the Cavs is lifted. They begin a series with new life and a renewed purpose of shocking the NBA world.
