Sunday's four-game slate of NBA playoff action will almost certainly produce some memorable moments.

The last time these eight teams squared off, three of the four contests were decided by single digits—one by only two points. In the fourth, this seasons's Defensive Player of the Year, Kawhi Leonard, dominated the offensive end as his San Antonio Spurs forged ahead in the first round's only series to be knotted at one win apiece.
