Never, ever could you have imagined that a first-round Eastern Conference playoff series that probably isn’t going past five games would create various rap beefs overlapping guys from the likes of LeBron James and Jay-Z to Soulja Boy, DeShawn Stevenson, and some dude named ProV. You may have never heard of ProV, but he's got DeShawn Stevenson's back, as well as that of all of D.C.

Is tonight the night that that LeBron James and the Cavaliers move on, and DeShawn Stevenson and the Wizards go home? I'd say it's fairly likely.
