Toronto: Bruins 4, Maple Leafs 3
The Bruins now have a 3-1 series lead, thanks to David Krejci's hat trick, which included the game-winner in overtime. Mark Fraser had to leave the game after taking a puck to the face, so that was scary.
Miami: Heat 115, Bulls 78
Oh right, the Heat are still the Heat. This one was over just after the second half began, so Joakim Noah and Taj Gibson decided to start resting up for Game 3 a little early. Also, this lady.
San Antonio: Warriors 100, Spurs 91
After letting a huge lead slip away in Game 1, the Warriors take Game 2 with a solid bounce-back performance. And they did it without getting much from Steph Curry, who finished with 22 points. It was Klay "Hey I'm Also A Really Good Shooter" Thompson's 34 points that led the way.

St. Petersburg: J.A. Happ takes a liner off the head
Yiiiiiikes.
San Jose: Sharks 4, Canucks 3
That'll do it for the Canucks, who were swept away by Patrick Marleau's overtime goal. Everyone in Vancouver, please stay calm!
Ottawa: Senators 3, Canadiens 2
The Sens pulled this one out in overtime, thanks to Kyle Turris's beautiful, long-range goal. He couldn't have placed that one any better.
Oklahoma City: Grizzlies 99, Thunder 93
Both Kevin Durant and Mike Conley were one assist shy of a triple-double, but the Grizzlies came out on top because Conley had more help. Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol dominated the paint, and Tony Allen made the defensive play of the game late in the fourth quarter.
I think it was more of a case of the Bulls not having any other choice. Without Hinrich and Deng, they had to keep whoever was playing the 4 close to the paint in order to curtail the inevitable blow-bys that their weakened backcourt would be giving up, thus leaving guys like Battier and Miller open.

Toronto: Bruins 5, Maple Leafs 2
The Leafs got trounced in their first home playoff game since 2004. That makes us very sad for all of these people.
San Antonio: Spurs 129, Warriors 127
Yep, that was absolutely the game of the year. Steph Curry was white hot in the third quarter once again, the Spurs somehow erased a 16-point deficit in the fourth quarter, and it all ended with a cold-blooded three from Manu Ginobli in the second overtime. This game was heroin for…
