Didn't Bulls with Derrick Rose lose as 1st seed to an 8th seed one year? They had a ton of injuries though IIRC.

1999 Heat. Took a big fat L to the Knicks thanks to Allan Houston's clutch shot.

Only LeBron fans demand that a player does something that has only been done 4 times in 70 occurrences since the NBA adapted the 1-8 seed 16 team format in 1984, while LeBon can’t even win 35% of his Finals matchups. :oldlol:

94 nuggets (beat.sonics)
99 knicks (beat heat)
07 warriors (beat mavs)
11 grizzlies (beat spurs)
12 76ers (beat bulls)

That Knicks team went to the Finals, but to be fair they probably would have been a much higher seed if they played the full 82 games that year.

Don’t get outscored in the Finals by Jason Terry and there might be an actual legitimate conversation for being the GOAT

I know this is a rhetorical question but granting that the current events did not suspend the outgoing season at all, say what if the lakers had the top seed in their conference but somehow lost to the last seed team (either the grizz, the pels or spurs) in the first round of this year's playoffs? Just wondering.
