Frame of reference;
First Round: Beat Portland Trail Blazers (Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge era) in 6 games.
Western Conference Semi-Finals: Swept the LA Lakers (Kobe's 2nd to last playoff season)
Western Conference Finals: Beat Oklahoma City Thunder (KD, Westbrook, and Harden coming into their primes) in 5 games.
And of course, they beat the Heatles in 6 games in Finals.
My gut instinct was absolutely no but now I think maybe? '80s-'90s great champions usually had at least one absolute chump early round series.
Only other one that comes to mind is another Texas team...'95 Houston Rockets, who were a 6 seed and beat the Malone-Stockton Jazz in first round in 5 games (back when 1st round series were 5 games), the Barkeley/Thunder Dan/Kevin Johnson Suns in 7 games, San Antonio Spurs in 6 games then swept the Orlando Magic.
