What a meltdown it will be if a top seed is swept by an eighth seed?

[Kiddlovesnets]

Well the NBA playoffs do have some upsets like No.8 seed over No.1 seed, but its quite rare and to my knowledge the top seeds managed to at least two games. I wonder what a collapse it will be if the Pacers were swept by the Hawks, I mean completely dominated. Thoughts?

Heat as the 1st seed lost to the Knicks in 99. You weren't born yet though.

Almost as bad as when the Nets got beat by the Bulls last year. The Bulls were basically playing their bench players versus the Nets starters.

If I do recall, that was a close series, op is talking about complete domination.

Clearly you cant even read, I wonder what your IQ test score is.

Probably higher than Jason Kidds.

Probably higher than Jason Kidds.

So that means he has higher IQ than you? I know Kidd clearly has higher IQ than you, so anyone with a higher IQ score than Kidd is clearly more intelligent compared to someone like you.

Jason Kidd is very intelligent?

This is the same guy that got fined for "intelligently" asking a player to bump him so he could get a timeout. Yes, that's real smart.

Wow! This guy's I.Q. is off the charts!

Oh my, why are you so mad? Pacers fan or bandwagoner?

If the Hawks sweep the Pacers I will find a new team to root for. Matter of fact I will let this board help me decide my new nba team if the pacers lose.

Another poster who cant read. I was talking about an 8th seed sweeping top seed, not just to beat them like in a 4-2 or 4-3 manner.

Point is, stop worrying about the Pacers.

You need to focus on the Nets. You should be on your knees praying that old man Pierce and a shell of KG can at least get the Nets past the Raptors.

With that payroll, you would think the Nets would get out of the first round and maybe, just maybe not lose to a depleted Bulls team again, like last year.

You didnt read the title either. I was talking about an 8th seed possibly sweeping top seed, not just narrowly beating them in 6-7 games. The latter already happened many times, the former will make new history.

[kells333]

But wait... Didnt the knicks make it to the finals as an 8 seed. Surely they had to beat the 1 seed to get there. Right?

[TylerOO]

I expect this series to at least go 6. I knew Fraud George and Hibbert were overrated trash all along.

Oh my you really cant read. When did I say they didnt, and why do I care. I am talking about a top seed possibly getting swept in 1st round, not just to bounce out in 6-7 games tough series. If you want to discuss something completely irrelevant, open a new thread and I will appreciate it. Or unless you really just cant read at all.

[TheMan]

The Pacers will take one, maybe two from ATL.

I thinks its happened in every sport now. It doesnt happen every year but happens often enough.

Didn't he get the timeout? Yes. So it was real smart.

Kidd > everybody
