The Toronto Raptors are soaring after notching the largest margin of victory in the franchise's playoff history. The Raptors look to follow up the 29-point triumph with another solid performance when they visit the Orlando Magic on Friday in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference first-round series.

Kyrie Irving is making the most of his first playoff series with the Boston Celtics, who take a 2-0 lead into Game 3 at the Indiana Pacers on Friday. Irving scored 20 points and helped lead a dominant defensive effort in a series-opening 84-74 win and finished with 37 points, seven assists and six rebounds in Wednesday's come-from-behind 99-91 victory in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference best-of-seven matchup.

Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers had little trouble holding onto homecourt advantage in the first two games against the Oklahoma City Thunder behind a stout defensive effort. The Trail Blazers will try to bring that defense on the road and take a commanding 3-0 series lead when they visit the sixth-seeded Thunder on Friday.
