2009-10 Season Yearbook

The playoff cast of the 2009-10 season looked much like the previous year, with twelve of sixteen teams returning to the postseason.

In the East, Cleveland rolled to a league-best 61 regular season wins, adding components to their roster in hopes of a title run. But a veteran Boston team roared back in their East semifinal series to eliminate Cleveland, leading to a bitter end for Cleveland's superstar in his last home playoff game. Boston then knocked off a tough Orlando team to reach the Finals for another go at their longstanding rivals from LA.

In the West, the 08-09 champs in LA had retooled for their title defense, and their 57 regular season wins topped the conference. They faced a surprising opening round test in staving off playoff newcomer Oklahoma City before rolling past revitalized Utah and perennial contender Phoenix.

In the Finals, LA and Boston battled to the full seven game limit before Los Angeles prevailed, despite a subpar showing in the clincher by their superstar against a tough Boston defense.
