Philadelphia 76ers vs. Miami Heat Second Round Schedule

The Miami Heat solidified their spot in the Eastern Conference Semifinals earlier this week as they took down the Atlanta Hawks with a gentleman's sweep.

While the Heat dominated the series, for the most part, a tight loss on the road in Atlanta prevented Miami from getting a sweep.

But the Game 5 matchup on Tuesday ended up becoming Miami's advancing game as they took down the Hawks 97-94.

Once Miami made it to the next round, they kept their eyes on the Philadelphia 76ers versus Toronto Raptors matchup in the first round.

At first, the Sixers had an opportunity to become the first Eastern Conference team to advance as they had a 3-0 lead over the Raptors heading into last Saturday's Game 4 matchup in Toronto.

However, the Raptors weren't willing to go down without a fight. A victory in Game 4 for the Raptors forced a Game 5. And when the Sixers and the Raptors met once again at the Wells Fargo Center this past Monday night, Toronto pulled off another upset.

The Sixers left many of their fans worried they could be headed towards another Game 7 situation, but Philly took care of business in Game 6 on the road.

With a dominant 132-97 victory, the Sixers eliminated the Raptors and officially moved onto the second round of the playoffs, where they'll face the Heat.
