The second round of the NBA Playoffs are set! The final 8 teams playing for a championship have been carved in stone. The Warriors and Cavs made short work of the Pelicans and Celtics, respectively, and are still the favorites to come out of the West and East. Unexpectedly, the Hawks had a little more trouble putting away the Nets than they would have liked. Honestly, I'm not too surprised. Atlanta teams are notorious for being front runners in the regular season and hitting a brick wall in the post season. We will have to wait and see if this is the year they finally make it over the hump. Stay tuned to the Cave for round-by-round updates.
