When was the last time a #8 beat a #1?

What's more surprising?

The near fact that two Texas teams that are a #1 seed will lose in the 1st round, or the fact that the Rockets have never been a 1 seed in their history?

 

Im never asking a question in a thread now seeing how people respond ha. Some people are jerks, OP is probably just a hard core Rockets fan, who cars about them other teams .

 

I said in another thread, but why is different being an 8th seed that year.
everybody played 50 games.

 

yeah the only asterisks would be that it was a best of 5 series taken from an 8 seed.

they played a thrilling series against Miami and Indy, steamrolled through the Hawks, and fought hard trying to force a game 6 against the Spurs with no Ewing.

again, it's the only 8 seed in the Finals, EVER

 

sucks to have short memory huh?

 

It not really surprising in the West.

The difference between 8 and 1 in this conference isn't much. It would be wrong to even call it a real upset.

 

Because Deke's series was a lot better.
