    They're a decent team. Lillard is on a roll like no other over the last 10 games. Most games they are down in the 4th quarter and Lillard saves their ass.

    In the playoffs, other teams can scheme to hold him down and He historically isn't good in the playoffs anyway despite the one shot against Hou to send them home.

    I still give them the same odds as I did before of doing anything in the playoffs.

    Play off upsets are very rare because 4 out of 7 identifies the best team most of the time. Well over 81% of the time

    You need a head case team like the old Sonics in the 90's to blow it to a lesser team. Atlanta and teams like that in the early rounds

    The Cavs in in the Finals was a shocking as any Finals in years if not decades. The Pistons beating the Lakers 4-1 was a pretty big upset as well

    I do see drama in the two conference finals this year at least

    The Cavs in 2007? None of the recent years have been a surprise.

    I was referring to winning the Finals. Beating the 73 win Warriors coming back from 3-1 was a surprise

    I still remember that Pistons-Lakers finals. What was so surprising wasn't just that they won, but dominated the entire series. The Lakers won game 2 with some Kobe heroics. Other than that, the other 4 games were solid victories by the Pistons.

    They aren't. Jimmy, Melo, and Leonard are hurt.
