ALL DUE RESPECT: Celtics 123, Wizards 101. Boston leads the series 3-2 with Game 6 taking place Friday in D.C. If Boston wins, Game 1 of Cavs-Celtics will be on Wednesday, May 17 in Boston.

Tonight's games: Spurs-Rockets Game 6 at 8 p.m. San Antonio leads the series 3-2.

JOB WELL DONE: Why Kyrie is due. Check out The Chase Down. And Ty Lue, jokingly, says he wishes the Cavs knew their defensive schemes as well as their handshakes.
