No. 5 Knicks losing to No. 8 Heat
No. 6 Warriors losing to No. 7 Lakers

From bleacher report. Won't do a poll. Let's just discuss.
For me easily Number 1 was Bucks - Heat.

I'm actually surprised you joined this site way back in 2008. Could have sworn you joined in like 2020 or something.

Kings-Warriors, nobody saw Golden State winning that series. It's definitely not the 1 seed losing to the 8 seed.

Suns beating the Clippers is a pretty big upset in hindsight.

Peak Kawhi, peak George, peak Westbrook and insanely good role players.

Suns over Lakers in 2021. Magic over Cavs in 2009, Mavs vs Heat in 2011. Puerto Rico over USA in 2004. Greece over USA in 2006. Warriors over Rockets in 2018.

Bucks by a mile.

Not after the acquired Westbrook, they went from title favorites to "will not make it out of the first round" after they lost like 5 straight games as soon as WB joined them lol.
