The 2024 mavericks also were the underdog in every one of their series and made it to the finals as a 5th seed, same with the 2020 heat
1994 Knicks too
2020 heat
2019 blazers maybe
jerry west top 10 all time
That pacers run was ending the same as it did in an L with hali
2024 Mavericks?? 😅
2001 Sixers was a complete sham as a Sixers fan. Milwaukee would’ve put up a better series against LA, but Stern was a crook who fixed the series because it was two big markets. Fuck David Stern.
2006 or 2007 Mavs????
1988 Pistons
So every finals loser, basically?
07 cavs
2016 Thunder should be here honestly
couldn’t be any more proud of the Heat in 2023, the run they went on was insane
I honestly feel like finals mvp shouldn’t just go to a player on the winning team. if a loser had the best stats, give it to them
2023 Heat wasn't supposed to win..
The 2007 and 2018 Cavs were very impressive LeBron runs, but not particularly impressive Cleveland Cavalier runs. By comparison, the 2017 Cavs were arguably better than the 2016 Cavs that beat the 73-9 Warriors, not to mention they're the only reason the 2017 Warriors didn't sweep the play-offs, just like the 2001 76ers.
Just like in 2005 if Halliburton doesn't get hurt and malice at the palace doesn't happen pacers have 2 titles
2011 mavs
2011 mavs
2017 Cavs were elite they still had lebron and kyrie with even more depth
You can honestly make a decent argument for each 2020’s runner up about their finals runs
-2020 Heat were a 5th seed that crushed the first seeded bucks and more experienced Celtics
-2021 Suns, were good in the regular season, but no one was expecting a team with 0 playoff experience to run past the reigning champion Lakers, the mvp lead nuggets and a really good Clippers team
-2022 Celtics had a near loosing record earlier that season. People were saying that the C’s should break up the Tatum and Brown Core at some point. They turned their luck around defeating the reining champ bucks and the first seeded Heat
-2023 Heat were an 8th seed that almost got eliminated in the playin before defeating the 1st seed bucks, a young Knicks team and a more experienced Celtics contender
-2024 Mavs were a 5th seed and didn’t make the playoffs the previous season. Yet they crushed their clipper rivals, beat the first seated thunder and trounced an up and coming Timberwolves team that just defeated the reigning champs
-2025 Pacers had so many clutch wins against the heavily favored Cavs and Knicks teams. The former was a 64 win team. The latter just defeated the nba reigning champs in the previous round
Game 7 isnt could have its would have
Flying battery soundtrack from Sonic 3 is OP
24 mavs get no respect
Luka 2024 run might be the most disrespeced run ever
What happen to CONFERENCE FINAL MVP SIAKAM .. tyrese out then siakam gone too?
Could honestly put 2020 heat in there too
What abt the 2020 heat?
2025 nuggets > 2025 pacers
Remember LeBron carried a mediocre Cavs team all the way to the finals in 2007 even tho they got swept by the Spurs
The 1995 Magic beat the Bulls because they went up against #45 and not against #23. Jordan wasn’t the same during that playoff run. Yeah he scored 30ppg during the playoffs but his mind really wasn’t on basketball especially since his dad died a year or two previously
