Perspective on a Day of NBA Upsets

It was an upset filled Sunday in the NBA, as three teams that are contending for the best NBA record all lost their games.

First the Chicago Bulls won vs the Miami Heat. Next the Los Angeles Lakers won vs the Oklahoma City Thunder. Finally the Dallas Mavericks won vs the Indiana Pacers.

Some perspective on the upsets tempers the intensity. First off, all three produced victories by the home team.

Next, only the Lakers’ win vs Oklahoma City was a big upset. The Lakers were over seven to one underdogs.

It is an endless NBA regular season with five more regular season Sundays remaining. Luckily four will also have either NCAA tournament basketball or the start of baseball to watch.
