evenly matched team with a 5 seed over evenly matched team with a 4 seed
WHAT AN UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
giants had a legit chance over cowboys
cardinals had a legit chance over panthers
jets had a legit chance over chargers
the only true upsets of the decade in the NFL, where people thought the team had NO chance (as you put it) was Giants over Pats, and Pats over Rams.

LOL im glad he went there if they fail it will be hilarious ...if they make finals we have the first truly star packed finals ...of recent years ...
Kobe, Pau and Phil vs. young Money
Sons there's no point of being an LA fan either, how the is any team supposed to beat this super team?
In the past, there was something called "guts" which prevented franchise players from pussying out and teaming with other franchise players.
You're right. Winning a championship in a weak year of basketball. Basketball today is FAR stronger than it was in early 2000s.
if you had to win a race and the choices of transportation was between a bike and a car, only a re ed person would choose the bike. even lance armstrong would choose the car.
twice in 10 years for NFL. the only two teams that seemed to have no chance at winning, but won, were Giants over Pats and Pats over Rams
saying the Cards had a legit chance. Everyone on ESPN said they were gonna get their s chopped off and put in a meat grinder.
just going by definition, the same way DoK was by saying Jets over Chargers this year, or Cardinals over Panthers the previous year. that was simply a matter of seeding and slightly better record

stretch, are you seriously trying to argue that there are as many upsets in the NBA playoffs as there are in the NFL playoffs?
Panthers were 12-4, Cardinals were 9-7 only because of a 6-0 record in a weakass division. Being 3 games better with a much stronger schedule in a 16 game schedule is a slightly better record?
so a 9 win team beating a 12 win team isn't an upset?
That's like a 45 win team beating a 60 win team in the NBA. That's an upset that ALMOST NEVER HAPPENS in the NBA.
It's almost never been done before in NBA history. Maybe one of the Rocket teams with Hakeem did as much with as little, but almost no one else.
Even so: Parker, Manu, David, SJax, and the rest of that supporting cast would still have eaten the modern day Cavs ALIVE if Duncan and LeBron didn't play. Can you imagine Varejao trying to rebound against Malik Rose? AV would have had two techs in the first quarter the way Rose would have harassed him. Not to mention Bowen was on that team.
LeBron has never played with anyone near the caliber of Parker OR Manu.
'08 Cardinals over '08 Panthers
'07 Giants over '07 Patriots
'07 Giants over '07 Cowboys
'09 Jets over '09 Chargers
'01 CHEATriots (
I can think of a bunch more and it took all of 30 seconds to come up with those upsets off the top of my head.
I like how you put the year before BOTH teams.
"'09 49ers over '93 Cowboys...now THAT was an upset."
absolutely not.
If playoffs in the NBA were one game (or even 3 games), you'd see a ton of upsets in the playoffs. 8 seeds would be winning it all with frequency.

"'09 49ers over '93 Cowboys...now THAT was an upset."
lol revising history and discounting what Duncan did to suit your argument.
Can I imagine Varejao trying to rebound against Malik Rose? No, a 7 footer grabbing a rebound over someone 5 inches shorter than he is is something I'm incapable of seeing.
In 2003, Parker was a 2nd year player who Greg Popovich loved so much he was ready to sign Jason Kidd as the new PG once the season was over. Ginobili was making his NBA debut and he averaged 7 PPG. Antwan Jamison is a way better player than either 2003 Parker or Manu. Mo Williams isn't any worse than 2003 Parker.
The format means everything. Whenever it all hinges on a single game, anything can happen. When it takes 4 to win, the psychological and physical limitations of the inferior team get exposed almost inevitably.
I never said he was a good fit. I said he was a better player than 2003 Parker or Manu.
As several people already mentioned, I merely hate the way he handled everything. Setting CLE fans up for such devestation...live. I don't blame him for wanting the easier path to the 'chip. I DO, however, hold him accountable for THIS statement:
'My heart will always be around that area. But I also felt like this is the greatest challenge for me, is to move on.'
Really, 'Bron? Going to Miami is more challenging?
