In the first round of the NBA Playoffs, there has been a lot of upsets and also a few disappointing teams who underachieved in their playoff run.

The Los Angeles Clippers were projected to have a deep run in the playoffs but it was Chris Paul’s and Blake Griffin’s unfortunate injuries which ended their season. In the Eastern Conference, the Toronto Raptors and Indiana Pacers series went all the way to a Game 7 thriller, in which the Raptors won.

“I was really surprised that the Clippers went down but it’s the playoffs and hope that Portland goes far,” junior Mohamad Shah said.
