SPORTS Friday, May 26, 2017 East Oregonian Page 3B NBA Cavs back in Finals for round three with Warriors By KYLE HIGHTOWER AP Sports Writer East Finals - Game 7 BOSTON — LeBron James scored 35 points and passed Michael Jordan to become the NBA’s all-time playoff scoring leader as the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Boston Celtics 135-102 on Thursday night to claim their third straight Eastern Conference title and a return trip to the NBA Finals. Kyrie Irving added 24 points and Kevin Love finished with 15 for the Cavs, who never trailed and led by as many as 39 points in one of their most dominating wins of the series. The Cavs set an NBA record by winning their 13th consecutive series closeout opportunity. Cleveland’s 4-1 series’ win gives it a 12-1 record Cleveland Boston 135 102 this postseason and sets up a third consecutive matchup with Western Conference champion Golden State, the team it beat in the Finals last season to claim the fran- chise’s first championship. It will mark the seventh straight trip to the Finals for James. “This team is a crazy team. They just stayed resilient all year, got to the playoffs, and we really stepped our game up,” Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said. “Now we can start focusing on Golden State to get ready. As of tonight, I’ll get AP Photo/Elise Amendola Cleveland forward Kevin Love, left, and center Tristan Thompson, right, trade high-five’s during the first half of Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Celtics, on Thursday in Boston. started.” Avery Bradley led Boston with 23 points. The Cavaliers basically conceded the East’s top seed to the Celtics at the end of the regular season by opting to rest its starters in advance of the playoffs. But they displayed their superiority over the final two games to wrap up the series. After allowing the Celtics to seize the early momentum in Game 4, the Cavs barely gave them the chance in Game 5. Led by its Big Three, Cleveland quickly built a 21-point lead in the first quarter, while getting lots of contributions from their teammates. Love continued to knock down shots from the outside, Irving sliced his way into the lane to the rim and James got free for several of his one-handed, tomahawk dunks. It was a very welcomed sight in Irving’s case, after he rolled his left ankle in the third quarter of Cleveland’s Game 4 win. He showed no signs of lingering issues, though, beating several defenders off the dribble and handing out seven assists. Meanwhile, J.R. Smith and Kyle Korver all helped spread out Boston’s defenders by connecting on several wide-open scoring opportunities. Deron Williams, who had been quiet for most of the series, also got in on the act with a series-best 14 points for Cleveland. The Celtics did their best to keep up, but the consis- tent outside shooting, bench scoring and defense they relied on to stun Cleveland in Game 3 wasn’t there Thursday night. “I thought we played a little too haphazard tonight,” Celtics coach Brad Stevens said. “Our offensive mistakes led to bad defense, and it just kind of snowballed on us.” SCOREBOARD Local Slate State, 5 p.m. PREP BASEBALL Today #1 Stanfield/Echo vs. #9 Taft (3A quarter- finals), TBD Tuesday 3A semifinals, TBD Hockey PREP SOFTBALL Friday #6 Hood River Valley at #3 Pendleton (5A quarterfinals), TBD #10 Lost River at #2 Pilot Rock (2A/1A quarterfinals), 2 p.m. #6 Crook County at #3 Mac-Hi (4A quar- terfinals), 4 p.m. Tuesday 5A, 4A, 2A/1A semifinals, TBD Basketball NBA Playoffs CONFERENCE FINALS (Best-of-7; x-if necessary) EASTERN CONFERENCE Cleveland 4, Boston 1 May 17: Cleveland 117, Boston 104 May 19: Cleveland 130, Boston 86 May 21: Boston 111, Cleveland 108 Tuesday: Cleveland 112, Boston 99 Thursday: Cleveland 135, Boston 102 WESTERN CONFERENCE Golden State 4, San Antonio 0 May 14: Golden St. 113, San Antonio 111 May 16: Golden St. 136, San Antonio 100 May 20: Golden St. 120, San Antonio 108 May 22: Golden St. 129, San Antonio 115 FINALS (Best-of-7; x-if necessary) All games televised on ABC Golden State vs. Cleveland Thursday, June 1: Cleveland at Golden State, 6 p.m. Sunday, June 4: Cleveland at Golden State, 5 p.m. Wednesday, June 7: Golden State at Cleveland, 6 p.m. Friday, June 9: Golden State at Cleveland, 6 p.m. x-Monday, June 12: Cleveland at Golden State, 6 p.m. x-Thursday, June 15: Golden State at Cleveland, 6 p.m. x-Sunday, June 18: Cleveland at Golden NHL Playoffs CONFERENCE FINALS (Best-of-7) EASTERN CONFERENCE Ottawa 3, Pittsburgh 3 May 13: Ottawa 2, Pittsburgh 1, OT May 15: Pittsburgh 1, Ottawa 0 May 17: Ottawa 5, Pittsburgh 1 May 19: Pittsburgh 3, Ottawa 2 May 21: Pittsburgh 7, Ottawa 0 Tuesday: Ottawa 2, Pittsburgh 1 Thursday: Pittsburgh 3, Ottawa 2, 2 OT WESTERN CONFERENCE Nashville 4, Anaheim 2 May 12: Nashville 3, Anaheim 2, OT May 14: Anaheim 5, Nashville 3 May 16: Nashville 2, Anaheim 1 May 18: Anaheim 3, Nashville 2, OT May 20: Nashville 3, Anaheim 1 May 22: Nashville 6, Anaheim 3 STANLEY CUP FINAL (Best-of-7; x-if necessary) Nashville vs. Pittsburgh Monday, May 29: Nashville at Pittsburgh, 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 31: Nashville at Pitts- burgh, 5 p.m. Saturday, June 3: Pittsburgh at Nashville, 5 p.m. Monday, June 5: Pittsburgh at Nashville, 5 p.m. x-Thursday, June 8: Nashville at Pitts- burgh, 5 p.m. x-Sunday, June 11: Pittsburgh at Nashville, 5 p.m. x-Wednesday, June 14: Nashville at Pittsburgh, 5 p.m. Baseball MLB AMERICAN LEAGUE East Division W L New York 27 17 Baltimore 25 20 Boston 25 21 Tampa Bay 25 25 Toronto 21 26 Central Division W L Minnesota 25 18 Pct .614 .556 .543 .500 .447 Pct .581 GB — 2½ 3 5 7½ GB — Cleveland Detroit Chicago Kansas City West Division 24 22 20 19 21 24 25 27 .533 2 .478 4½ .444 6 .413 7½ W 32 25 24 21 22 L 16 25 24 25 27 Pct GB .667 — .500 8 .500 8 .457 10 .449 10½ Houston Los Angeles Texas Oakland Seattle ——— Thursday’s Games Kansas City at N.Y.
