Overrated/Underrated playoff series


Unocal

Recommended Posts

What are some playoff series that you think are better/not as good as some people give it too much or not enough praise?

And this would include playoff series, so I'm excluding the NFL from this.

Baseball underrated;

2002 World Series. I consider this a guilty pleasure WS. So many runs, no lead was safe, one of those teams HAD to win.

1992 World Series. It came after the legendary 1991 series, but it was a worthy follow-up. Only one game was a real blowout and even that had some drama (game 5- Morris trying to make history, but we get a rare grand slam.

Baseball overrated:

1986 World Series. Games 6-7 have elevated what was an "eh" series through 5 games to mythical proportions.

NHL Underrated

2006 Stanley Cup Finals. Didn't have big markets, but it was gripping epic hockey theatre. Game 1 alone was better than some entire SCF.

1992 Stanley Cup Finals: Probably the most competitive and interesting SCF sweep ever.

NHL Overrated

2009 Stanley Cup Finals- Outside of game 7, really not the greatest of seven-game series. The first 6 games were meh outside of game 4's quick strike succession of three goals.
