In the Western Conference, the top-seeded Nuggets were rolling. The Nuggets are 12-3 in the playoffs, highlighted by a 4-0 series sweep over the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.
Arguably, Nikola Jokic is the best player in the world right now. Through 15 postseason games, Jokic averaged 29.9 points, 13.3 rebounds, and 10.3 assists.
In the Eastern Conference, the eighth-seeded Heat is a team of destiny. After winning the final game to qualify for the playoffs as the eighth seed, the Heat defeated the #1 seed Milwaukee Bucks, #5 New York Knicks, and #2 Boston Celtics to advance to the NBA Finals.
The Heat took a 3-0 lead over the Celtics. However, Boston came back to tie the series at 3-3, but the Heat managed to right the Storm and defeat the Celtics in Game 7 103-84. Jimmy Butler and Caleb Martin combined for 54 points, 17 rebounds and nine assists in Game 7 in Boston.
