You can also add Hawks 2 Pacer 1, tbh
Considering stakes/expectations, I think Blazers-Rockets takes the cake... heck, Portland is looking at a sweep at home...
Memphis 2 Thunder 1
Blazers 2 Rockets 0
Bulls 0 Wizards 2
Pacers 1 Hawks 2
Im really not sure.

Definitely Blazers-Rockets for me. I underestimated how mentally weak Houston could be. Not even a Portland split will save them now...they straight up need to win both in Portland. Kinda crazy to think Dwight Howard's last playoff win was Game 5 of the 2011 first round against the Hawks--iirc
Bulls-Wiz for me. I kinda expected the H-Town vs Rip City series to go down to close games and LMA has been the difference in the series, bar none. Nothing really surprising because everybody already knew Dwight and Harden's playoff colors. I vastly underestimated DC. I thought they were just happy to be in the PO's and would roll down for the Bulls.
LOL OP conveniently leaving out Spurs 1-1 series.
biggest surprise was how much the new CBA would defang the Lakers while making the NBA an overall better product.
Rockets-Blazers and it isn't even close, tbh..
Say what you want about Houston, but a higher seed losing both home games to a lower-seeded team in the 1st round is embarrassing, tbh(I know the Bulls did it as well, but they have virtually no offensive talent)..
^ This dumb
With the talent disparity being as wide as it is in the east, it is downright comical for the pacers to be pummeled this way. The Hawks, a team that was projected to be one of the worst in the league, missing their best player, is completely disrespecting Indiana with their play. Its one thing to be pulling out an upset win with both teams grinding it out, but Atlanta just unleashes its load onto Indy and expects them to lick it off too. This would definitely be one of the greatest upsets ever if pulled off.
People are actually surprised by Rockets/Blazers? Harden choking in the playoffs really isn't a surprise....
The biggest surprise was when the rockets had enough, fired McHale, hired another doofus like Kerr..and then went onto win the next 4 games against Portland. Ahh yes...a series to remember.
The Wiz. Spose they have a Spur coach on the bench doing his thing.
Dallas winning isnt much of a surprise tbh
Really? The 8th beating the dominant 1st seed isnt a surprise all of a sudden?
you still should have added them
spurs looked completely dominated. they looked like e in game one and barely scraped the win and got pummeled in game 2
get ready to grab onto your ankles cuz dirk is going to put his german babies into duncans cucky self, boy
its 1-1... all of the series listed in the OP are underseeds leading the favorites
if dallas goes up 2-1 this list will be edited
Tbh I don't see how a 1-1 is surprising. Only 2-1s and 2-0s count atm.
That said its either Indiana or Rockets being down. Rockets I guess you can say okay their opponent is great so its not a big deal. . .but they lost two home games.
Pacers being down and looking like is though. SA will be up there IF they lose game 3.
Gotta be the Blazers. LOL Aldridge averaging 40+ PPG against a team that can throw Howard and Asik against him. How the does that happen?
I don't know why anyone would be surprised at Atlanta over Indiana. Hibbert's career is going down the ter unlike any other I have ever seen not involving drug addiction.
Its still been a huge shock for everyone Artur. The Spurs looked very dominant in the regular season, and once again they are failing in the post. They barely won game 1 and lost game 2 dominantly.
OKC down 2-1 is way more shocking than the Spurs-Mavs tied at 1-1
sounds like last year's warriors series where it took a miracle 15 point 5 minute comeback and 2OT Manu game winner to win game 1, then got blown the out game two.
Too early to give up on your team tbh, if they don't dominate the Blazers in game 3 I would say it's over though.
