Are the hawks the worst #1 seed team ever?

[Edub]

Yeah, I feel like people aren't giving LeBron and the Cavs enough credit for making shyt look so easy.


It's funny how so many people predicted series wins for both the Bulls and Hawks before the beginning of each series.... before doing an about-face.

Exactly...everybody jumped on that hate Lebron bandwagon and tried to "hate" on this team into actually being sorry. Doesn't work like that...this squad has been manhandling teams for a while now...the hate made people ignore basketball facts and they've become consumed by ignorance​

Hawks got two rounds further than the mavs with less talent and no MVPs, let's stop acting like GSW were a championship level squad.

Facts only

so that warriors team was better than this years spurs because they got farther with less talent

imma stop here, you got it breh

If Chris Bosh was healthy and the Heat got the 8th seed they would have swept ATL

Heat/Cavs ECF would've been off storyline alone...

I Feel like our squad at 100% would've easily made the ecf this year.

nikkas is just terrible

Some of yall dudes can so dramatic with these reactionary threads

Its 1 seeds that lose in the first round to 8 seeds

They made it all the way to the eastern conference finals thats a major jump from being a 8 seed losing in the first round last playoffs they should be proud

The League really needs to move this franchise to Seattle though. There are maybe 3 teams that have no glorious history and are so insignificant that noone would care (outside of home fans) if the teams moved. Denver, ATL & probably Sacramento. The only good thing about Sacramento is Tiny Archibald and the Chris Webber days. Atl has the Dominique Wilkins days. And Denver.....umm the Melo days? These 3 can bounce

Just delete the little history they have and give the team to seattle

What about that Mavs team with MVP Dirk that lost in the first round?

That spurs team that got their ass beat by grizzlies are up there as woat

I'm reading through this thread & Any nikka suggesting the 2007 Dallas Mavericks or the 2011 Spurs are worse than this Hawks team doesn't know shyt about Basketball.

A big part of the Hawks success this season was playing in a weak Eastern Conference. As long I've been watching NBA Basketball (The early 2000's), the Eastern Conference has almost always been weaker than Western Conference. That shyt has not changed.

Both the 2011 Spurs & 2007 Mavs teams would whoop this Hawks team. Hell, the teams they lost to in the first round, would both be favored to beat this Hawks team.

Has anyone suggested the team that lost in the first round to 8th-seed 1999 Knicks?

 

[MostReal]

No it isnt
Unless they get a guy thats gonna be an alpha male and fight for 20 plus a game its all down hill

A starting five full of betas and the only niga that had heart nearly tore his acl

This comment is so accurate

Lockout season, & that Knicks team was way more talented than their record. They had a bunch of issues with the new faces (Spree/Camby) that had to be worked out initially

nikkas in this thread talking about moving an ATL team to fukking Seattle

 

[Alexander The Great]
