Last night was a blowout! Oladipo and the Pacers pushed a Game 7 with LeBron and the Cavs.
This is the first time LeBron James has faced elimination in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. Will he join Westbrook?
Raptors vs Wizards
Kyle Lowry and the Raptors took care of business last night, routing the Wizards and sending them home. They play the winner of the Cavs-Pacers series next.
OKC vs Jazz
Rookie, Donovan Mitchell destroyed OKC! Westbrook put up 46 points but they were null and void without any help from Paul George, Carmelo Anthony or anyone else.
Mitchell was also without the help of Rubio, who had to leave the game with a nagging hamstring injury.
Spectular show put on by Mitchell. He gets Rookie of the Year over Ben Simmons for Suga.
Rubio may be out for 2 or more weeks, which is bad if they have to play the #1 seed in the West, the Rockets.
Stay tuned! Don’t you just love this game?!

The West Indies Under 19 Cricket Team won the ICC World Cup vs India! Signs of a good future? Maybe not. They only scored 146 runs in 49.3 overs to win, however the bowling and fielding were impressive.
It is the first major title on any level that the West Indies has won since the senior team won the ICC World Twenty20 in 2012.

Arsenal put a dagger in Leicester’s campaign to win the Barclay’s Premier League title yesterday with Welbeck’s header in stoppage time to seal a 2-1 victory.
Leicester’s only goal was from a penalty kick at the end of the first half that probably shouldn’t have been awarded. They got a red card at 54′ downsizing them to 10 men, then Walcott of Arsenal equalised at 70′.
Here is a look at the BPL table now:
There was exciting action in La Liga yesterday too. Lionel Messi had an unbelievable Penalty kick, where it was Barcelona 6-1 Celta Vigo! Watch it here!
