It's still a perfect postseason for the Cavaliers . Facing their stiffest challenge of the series, the Cavaliers pulled away from the Hawks for an 84-74 victory in Atlanta for their second straight four-game sweep of the NBA playoffs.
While they won by at least 10 points for the eighth time in eight playoff games, this was a struggle against an Atlanta team inspired by a raucous home crowd. The Cavs trailed by seven after the first quarter, but outscored Atlanta 69-52 the rest of the way. LeBron James led the Cavs with 27 points and Delonte West scored 21. Now the Cavs, who had nine days off after beating Detroit in the first round, will get another extended break waiting to find out their opponent in the Eastern Conference finals. Orlando and Boston are tied, 2-2, in that series.
