The Cleveland Cavaliers, led by the 'Spanish' coach Kenny Atkinson, dismantled the Miami Heat in unprecedented fashion, cementing their status as true NBA title contenders.

Both Cleveland and Indiana boast deep rosters that deliver in the clutch, which should make for a competitive semifinals clash.

The Pistons, meanwhile, staved off elimination and forced a Game 6 against the Knicks by beating New York Tuesday night. The winner of that series will face the Celtics in the second round. Elsewhere, the Warriors are up 3-1 in the series against the Houston Rockets and the Minnesota Timberwolves lead the Los Angeles Lakers 3-1.
