NBA/NHL Playoffs Update, May 16

Once we hit the start of the NBA and NHL playoffs, I can never keep everything straight. So I figured I'd do myself (and anyone who frequents this blog) the service of keeping a current tally of each NBA and NHL playoff series.

Notes:

• The NBA Playoffs have completed their second round. The NHL Playoffs will complete their second round tonight. 
• The numbers in parentheses (on the outside of each table) are the seed of that particular team (the lower the seed, the better that team's regular season record...mostly)
• The numbers on the inside of each table are the number of games won by that team in the series. 
• Every series below is a 7-game series. 
• This will not be a comprehensive overview of either the NBA or NHL playoffs, simply an opportunity to keep tabs on which series are over quickly and which ones are in the process of going down to the wire.
