There are some surprises in the NBA first round, but maybe no greater than the Pistons. ESPN answers a question I had:

The Pistons are the third team to win 60 games in the regular season but trail 3-1 in its opening series, according to ESPN Research. Each of the previous two teams – the 2011 San Antonio Spurs and 2007 Dallas Mavericks – extended its series but lost in six games.
