In the West conference, the last winner, Golden State Warriors, defeat Houston Rockets in 6 games for the second time in a row and they will play against  the Portland Trail Blazers who beat the favorite Denver Nuggets; It was a very physical and long fight in seven matches with a great C.J McCallum and a dispointing Jamal Murray in the game 7. On the other conference, the Milwaukee Bucks erased Boston Celtics in five matches and the Toronto Raptors destroyed the Philadelphia 76ers at the last second with a historical shot from Kawhi Leonard on Joel Embiid in the Scotiabank Arena.

Finally, there will be some very interesting matchups for the conference finals : Toronto against Milwaukee and the face-off between Golden State and Portland. We hope that Raptors will win and the Warriors too for a great confrontation.

In a century when all the real activities are replaced by the online hobbies, a new form of sport has been created; E-Sport!

Before, people played just normaly video games, alone, or with some friends. But after some iconic and very famous game like Haxball, Fortnite or Trackmania, the community of these games gathered to make huge contest with some price into the bargain.

These contests grew until becoming new type of Sport which can make gamers live without a job.

Today E-Sport gathers a lot of fans and organises a lot of important events.

We think that it is a great thing that some gamers can live on their passion but it is certainly a bad thing that E-Sport replaces other activities like real sport or hanging out with some friends.
