Miami without Butler has a chance to be swept. Still think they win at least 1 game or maybe even 2.

I can see that in the West but someone is definitely getting swept in the East.

Maybe Bam, Herro, Spoelstra are good for a game or two, but I agree this matchup looks like the most likely sweep. Both 1-8 series look that way, especially with the injuries.

How do we know this?
I could see 4 possible sweeps in the first round (none other than celtics likely though).

Nuggets, Celtics, Thunder, or Mavericks

Idk about shocking. Miami has a lot of pride and Boston can sometimes not put their foot on the pedal.

If there are no sweeps except for Denver sweeping the Lakers again how much more impressive will Windy find it to be for LA?

1976 :o

Before that, 1973.

Before that, 1965.

It's very rare.

No way that is happening. Magic will win this series based on their great match up alone but i guess some people just based everything on typical first game overreaction Lol

What will be a sweep is Denver over LAL which I called before series even started based on awful match-up. Now they lost to them 13 in a row. If Lakers is smart, they bench both Dlo and AR for Gabe and Dinwiddie to play some back court defense with the first unit while increased scoring for 2nd unit where defense is not needed otherwise it will be a sweep again followed by Ham firing.

Suns and Lakers getting swept, there's a reason these guys barely squeaked in to playoffs despite having flashy names on the roster

I don't know what the betting odds would be but it's definitely not in your favor.

At the current rate, there are 4 teams on track to be swept ;)
