Is This The Season an 8 Can Legitimately Beat a 1?

Just stop.....

Bucks have 1.5 guys who can get their own shot. Blazers have 3 and an advantage at center. Not sure how Bucks won so many games. I guess they’re just a regular season team.

who almost made it to the finals last year.
So i guess that makes us just regular season team....

Eric id listen to your podcast but im sorry, its takes like this that tell me it would be a waste of my time...

Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Magic beat Bucks in 5. Everything Magic did today is sustainable. I had no idea how good a Vucevic is. Looks better than Jokic to me.

Blazers “almost” made it to the Finals too. Both Bucks and Blazers lost 4 straight in conference finals last season. I’m fine with conversations like this. Posting “not happening” over and over was unbearable and why I initially put you on ignore.

I think Magic over Bucks would be statistically be the biggest upset in NBA history. Bucks won at a 62 win pace. Magic won at a 37 game pace.

2007 Mavs won 67 games and Warriors won 42 games and Warriors win. That’s also a 25 game difference but the Magic winning would be first 8 seed to win despite being 8 games below .500.

Oddsmakers basically had "Bucks sweep" as an even-money bet. Crazy.

Funny, the Magic are actually the home team for the whole series, in theory, since the games are all being played in Orlando. I will be very interested in Game 2. On our podcast, I said something like this might happen.

Interesting, when 1994 Nuggets became first 8 seed to eliminate #1 seed, the 8 seeded Heat forced a game 5 vs #1 Hawks. Maybe both 8 seeds win this year??

nah. I remember. You said it was because you know what i bring to the forum already.
Anyhow i apologize for upsetting you so when i posted 16 total times over 2 days in several threads its not happening.

I still stand by my statement about your takes.....
