To be the man, you gotta beat the man, and after eliminating the defending champion Warriors, the Lakers are the man! After vanquishing the defending champion Golden State Warriors my beloved Los Angeles Lakers are moving on to the Western Conference Finals! The Miami Heat are another play in team moving on to the Conference Finals after taking care of business with the New York Knicks. Denver eliminated Phoenix in embarrassing fashion and the 76ers will do battle with the Boston Celtics on a game 7 after squandering an opportunity to close them out at home in game 6.
