The stage is set for the 2020\/21 NBA Conferences finals after the conclusion of the semi-final fixtures in the Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n

The tickets for the final spots in the Eastern Conference had to go to the wire as semi-final games involving the Milwaukee Bucks and the star-studded Brooklyn Nets went to game seven.<\/p>\n

At the start of the season the Brooklyn Nets who have super-stars Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden in their rooster were tipped for the NBA Finals but they short of the bookmakers tip.<\/p>\n

The Brooklyn Nets took a 2-0 lead after back-to-back wins (115-107, 125-86) in Games 1 and 2 to secure their home court advantage.<\/p>\n

Milwaukee Bucks tied the series with their own (86-83, 107-96) home wins in Games 3 and 4.<\/p>\n

It should be pointed out that The Nets lost Kyrie Irving in the midway through the second quarter in Game four and James Harden didn’t play any part of the first-four Games.<\/p>\n

But the nine-time All-Star and 2018 MVP who missed those games through right hamstring tightness returned for the remaining three games (5,6 and 7).<\/p>\n

Nets won Game 5 (114-108) and again Bucks tied the series with a (104-89) win, in the Game six to set up a series deciding game at The Nets.<\/p>\n

The deciding game between the second seed Brooklyn Nets and third seed Milwaukee Bucks lived up to its hype as it became just the first Game 7 to to go to overtime in 15 years.<\/p>\n

In the end it was Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Bucks who won 115-111 at the end of the second overtime.<\/p>\n

The other semi-final involving the Eastern Conference teams Philadelphia 76ers and Atlanta Hawks also was decided at the end of Game 7.<\/p>\n

Less fancied Atlanta hawked down top seed Sixers securing a 103-96 win in Game 7 for a 4-3 series win and a place in the Eastern Conference final against the Bucks.<\/p>\n

Atlanta Hawks stunned the top seeded team in Game 1, securing a 128-124 win. Sixers tied the series with a 118-102 win in Game 2.<\/p>\n

Sixers then took the lead with 127-111 win in Game 3 but The Hawks tied the series with a 103-100 win in game 4.<\/p>\n

Hawks won Game 5 (109-106) but Sixers tied the series again with a 104-99 win in game 6.<\/p>\n

Atlanta went to Sixers on the bounce of a poor 0-9 record in Games 7s on the road but the record meant nothing as they secured a 103-96 victory over the top-seeded 76ers on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

The Western Conference Final started this morning with the clash between the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Clippers.<\/p>\n

Both teams are without their star players, Suns are without ‘The Point God’ Chris Paul while Clippers are without Kawhi Leonard.<\/p>\n

Devin Booker had 40 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists for his first career triple-double to lead Phoenix Suns to a 120-114 win against Los Angeles Clippers in the Game 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
