Denver knocking out the top seed Seattle in the 94 playoffs is still the biggest upset. Also think the Mavs getting knocked out by the Warriors in the 07 playoffs was a bigger upset but a least they had a excuse for that one, they where still not over collapsing against the Heat in the 06 finals. |
Yeah I probably shouldn't have said "most." I forgot Seattle vs Denver, that definitely is a bigger upset. But Pacers vs Atlanta is worse than the Dallas upset. At least Denver and Golden State had a .500+ record, the Atlanta Hawks can even boast that. There's also the fact that before the All-Star break the Pacers were probably the best team in the league at that point. A team that was supposed to give Miami troubles is about to lose in the first round against a team whose upper management didn't even want them to be there and with a record below 0.500. It is at least one of the greatest collapses. It don't even think it counts as upset simply because they have sucked so bad after the All-Star break that everyone was questioning if they'd make it out of the first round.
