Everyone was worried how the Cleveland Cavaliers would do in the playoffs this year when they had late season struggles with tough losses and just flat out no effort on defense. The Cavs also lost to the Atlanta Hawks back ups which did not look good for them when they had all of the starters playing for the Cavs.

As usual Lebron James and the Cavs take care of business in the first round of the playoffs by winning the series 4-0 against the Indiana Pacers. Lebron James also picked up his 21st straight first round playoff win. Some of the games that they played were closer than most would be comfortable with. They only won the first game 109-108 the Pacers also had a chance to walk away with the win but CJ Miles missed the game winning shot. During the series there were no blow out wins for the Cavs all the games were won in single digits.

The Cavs will play the Toronto Raptors starting on May 1st.  Last year the Cavs won the series against them 4-2 in the Eastern Conference Finals. They were the only ones who really put up a fight against the Cavs before the finals.
