Cavaliers 118, Hawks 88
How the game was won: LeBron James did it again with a near triple-double of 23 points, nine rebounds and seven assists – in just three quarters as the Cavaliers won the Eastern Conference finals in a four-game sweep. The Cavaliers led by as many as 31 points in the rout. Jeff Teague led the Hawks with 17 points.
Turning point: Kyrie Irving, who missed two games with left knee tendinitis, had nine first-quarter points. That included a 3-pointer 2:12 into the game that gave the Cavaliers the lead for good at 7-4.
Number: 20. Number of seconds the Hawks lead after Teague opened the game with a basket.
