Re: Detroit/Chicago Series hype.
The only teams I can think of in at least the last 20 years who swept through their conference were the Lakers in '89 and again in '01. I just looked up both of those playoff runs; most or all of the teams they beat in the second and third rounds had won their previous series either 3-1 or 4-1.

Pistons sweep the Magic.
Pistons sweep the Bulls who swept Miami.
Pistons sweep the Cavs who swept Washington and New Jersey.

That would mean that by the transitive property, we would have left the entire conference in broom clean condition.


That would be something.
In the words of C & C Music Factory and Arsenio Hall, "Things that make you go umm?
That would be interesting if your Sweep Scenario takes place.

Still if the Pistons sweep the Bulls and the Cavs sweep the Nets and then the Pistons Sweep the Cavs would be a first as all the teams that the Piston swept, swept their prior opponents (with the exception of the Magic of course. )

It would mean that other that the Nets/Raptors series, a record would be set with the least amount of overall games played in post season for the eastern conference.

Which means minimal revenue for NBA, Refs and venues....

It'll be the Pistons revenge for the rule changes.
