Sweeping to the Finals
Although they’re about 10,000 miles away from each other, the Boston Celtics and San Miguel Beermen did the same thing in sweeping to the Finals in their leagues. In the NBA, Boston blanked Indiana, 4-0, to make it first to the Last Dance. In the PBA Philippine Cup, San Miguel blitzed Rain or Shine, 4-0, to also finish first to the Finals. Both appear destined to go all the way to the Promised Land.
