It's impossible to predict what will happen in the NBA's conference finals matchups. But one thing is for certain: One long-suffering fanbase is about to have something to celebrate.

The Celtics won the series 4-1 and now have 18 league titles, surpassing their decades-long rival Los Angeles Lakers, which has 17.

The Nuggets beat the Miami Heat 94-89 — winning four out of the series' five games. Center Nikola Jokić was named the NBA Finals most valuable player.

The matchup between the Golden State's blistering offense and the Celtics' juggernaut defense begins tonight. It should be a close series between two teams that weren't expected to make it this far.

The NBA reported zero positive test results after play resumed in July. The Los Angeles Lakers' championship victory over the Miami Heat marked the end of the socially distanced season.
