Sure. Most people thought it would be a four or five game series -- but that's a different statement than most people thought it would be a five game series. I don't believe that's true at all; it was a 62-win team against a 37-win team. I don't really need "detailed records," just go back through the threads. Bulls fans were entirely dismissive of the Pacers, to the point most believed it wouldn't be a competitive series at all (though, certainly, the Pacers had ostensibly no chance to actually win the series). That statement/belief is more rank homerism: "well, we knew the Pacers were good and would give us all we could handle, this was expected." Yeah. Freakin'. Right. Of course, I know the only reason the Pacers have won once is that the NBA officials were incredibly biased in favor of the small market team with no stars. So the Pacers didn't really win one game. You want to get some love for your team...I get it. That's cool. The Pacers have exceeded playoff expectations. There ya go. Nobody is saying differently. Yay Pacers!
