Cleveland Cavaliers (1) vs. Atlanta Hawks (4)
The Cavs had a banner season taking home one of the best NBA regular season records with 66-16 and having the second-best NBA regular season home record at 39-2. LeBron "King" James was recently crowned the regular season MVP and by quite a margin.
The Hawks, on the other hand, caused flutters last season after taking the dominant Boston Celtics to 7 games. This season, they knocked off D-Wade's Heat in 7 games and have quite an up-and-coming line-up featuring several young stars.
Odds
Hawks: 14/1
Cavs: 1/28
Players to Watch Out For
From the Cavs you have obviously LeBron James leading the fore. He's got decent backup from sharpshooter Mo Williams and Delonte West. Zydrunas Ilgauskas is a quality center who can knock down the long-range jumper. The Hawks have one of the scoring leaders of the year Joe Johnson with backup from the energetic youngsters Josh Smith and Al Horford. The veteran Mike Bibby is going to be running point.
