Spring 2012 Day 41:
On Monday 21 May in the NBA, Boston hosted and defeated Philadelphia 101-pts-85 to take a 3-games-2 series lead, while Oklahoma City hosted and defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 106-pts-90 for a 4-games-1 series win. On Monday 21 May in the NHL, New Jersey hosted and bested the New York Rangers 4-goals-1 to tie their series at 2-games-all.

Up 3-games-2:
In the last five best-of-7 NBA playoff series in which the Boston Celtics have held a 3-games-2 series lead (as they now do, over the Philadelphia 76ers), Boston has a 3-2 series record. In the first 32 best-of-7 NBA playoff series in which the Boston Celtics have held a 3-games-2 series lead, Boston had a 32-0 series record. The Philadelphia 76ers have a 0-12 series record when trailing a best-of-7 NBA playoff series 3-games-2.

Score Settled:
The Oklahoma City Thunder suffered their first best-of-7 NBA playoff series defeat as the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2010 NBA Preliminary round. On Monday 21 May 2012, they avenged that defeat, ousting the Lakers 4-games-1 from the 2012 NBA playoffs. The Thunder now meet the San Antonio Spurs in the 2012 NBA Western Conference Finals.

Oft-Traveled Path:
For the third consecutive 2012 NHL playoff series, the New York Rangers end the first four series games with a WLWL @ HHVV win/site order. Thus far, it is a win/site order that is working for them.
