Has a whole division ever made it to the playoffs?

[Darsh]

Simple question, it would be pretty incredible.

Or has a any division come close? Fill me in on the details.

Hmm good question...Might go have a look around:cheers:

[Melissa]

the Southwest division often have 4 teams in the PO (hornets or grizzlies being the 4th team).

i think the pacific division came close when the clippers made the PO.

I remember the Central Division. It was Pistons, Cavs, Bucks, Pacers and Bulls back in 06.

[AJ2k8]

1990 playoffs Eastern Conference had the entire Central Division.

1. Detroit
3. Chicago
6. Milwaukee
7. Cleveland
8. Indiana

This is if they had divisions back then which they didn't...

:cheers:

What they also didn't have is 30 (15) teams. Nice answer you had there though.

You guys are stupid. In 2006 playoffs.

1. Detroit
4. Cleveland
6. Pacers
7. Bulls
8. Bucks

I may be, but here are a few other options:

1) I don't care about Divisions AT ALL
2) I'm not an American so this stuff is less important to me
3) All I said was I found an answer nice. I didn't say it was correct. (BTW, it was, if you look at the question.. it asked 'whether' and not 'when', especially not 'when for the last time'.)


However, I wouldn't rule out the possibility that I'm stupid. I have the right to be though. :oldlol:

you're right

and before that, it happened during the 1985.86 season when the Midwest Division had all six teams qualify (Houston, Denver, Dallas, Utah, Sacramento and San Antonio).

Note: The NBA had only four divisions until breaking into six divisions for starting with the 2004.05 season.

I didn't specifically call you stupid, I meant the group altogether. I mean this wasn't too long ago and people forget things like that.

I think it is more of a matter of people not caring about divisions, rather than forgetting.

Perhaps.

Ahh, i didnt even realise that. i didnt start watching until 2005-06.

I dunno why but this seemed more amazing to me last night, but i guess its likely to happen from time to time.
