On May 17th, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued, and today the Timberwolves and Nuggets ushered in the sixth game of the series, if the Nuggets can win this game, they can advance to the Western Conference finals, in this case, I thought the Nuggets would go all out to win, but they lost to the Timberwolves 70-115, and 45 points not only created a record for Jokic's single-game loss in the playoffs, but also set a record for the largest point difference in the playoffs this season, and such a point difference can rank seventh in history.

With that said, let's take a look at the 10 games with the biggest point difference in the playoffs, who created them?

Nuggets in 1985

It was the Western Conference playoff finals, the Nuggets faced the Lakers of Magic Johnson and Abdul-Jabbar, this season's Lakers won the first record in the West with 62 wins and 20 losses, they faced the Nuggets, in G5, the team defeated the Nuggets led by Inglish 153-109, the Lakers bloodied the opponent by 44 points in this game, although the Nuggets entered the Western Conference finals, but the strength gap between the two teams was very large, and finally the Lakers easily defeated the finals 4-1 and won the championship.

1958 Piston

At that time, it was the fourth game of the Western Conference finals, the Hawks faced the Pistons, the Pistons did not have any big stars at that time, and the overall strength of the players was not strong at that time, and the gap in the strength of the players was also very large, the top stars were the existence of the crowd, the Hawks had a historic power forward Bob Pettit, and under his leadership, the Hawks also easily defeated the Pistons 145-101, and Petit led the team to win the championship this year.

1997 Sun

At that time, Barkley had left the Suns, and the SuperSonics were in full swing, they achieved the second record in the West, facing the Suns who were seventh in the West, the Suns at that time were only led by Kevin Johnson in the last years, and in the end the team failed to withstand the destruction of Payton and Kemp, they lost to the SuperSonics 78-122, and the team lost to the opponent by 44 points, but this year's SuperSonics were eliminated by Barkley's Rockets in the division semifinals.

Celtic in 1995

It happened in the first round of G1, when the Magic as the first in the East, facing the eighth Celtics in the East, O'Neal and Penny Hardaway were at the peak, and the two also relied on unsolvable firepower to lead the team to a 124-77 victory over the opponent, and the team also won by 47 points, and finally the Magic also swept the opponent, under the leadership of O'Neal and Hardaway, the Magic finally reached the finals, but lost to Olajuwon.

Spurs in 1986

Or the Magic's fiasco, after winning the championship in '85, the Lakers in '86 won a 62-20 record, when they faced the 35-47 Spurs who were eighth in the West, the Spurs were led by Elvin Robertson, and the gap in strength in the West was very large at that time, and the G1 Magic led the team to easily defeat the opponent 135-88 in the first round, and the team still beat the opponent by 47 points, but this year's Lakers lost to the Rockets in the division finals.

15 years stag

This older fan should still have the impression that it was the sixth game of the first round, the third Bulls in the East faced the Bucks who were sixth in the East, and at that time Brother Alphabet and Middleton were still the auxiliary of McCarvey, and the Bulls were Gasol, Butler and Rose who still had some warmth, and in the end the Bulls also defeated the Bucks 120-66, and the Bucks suffered a 54-point bloodbath, but this year's Bulls did not go far, and they were harvested by Lao Zhan in the second round.

73 years of warriors

In 1973, the Warriors and the Lakers ushered in the Western Finals, when the Lakers were the defending champions, the last years of the coach and Jerry West, although the Warriors entered the Western Finals, but at that time there were few teams, it only took 2 rounds to enter the finals, in the first half the Lakers were full of firepower, they had a 19-point lead at halftime, but to be honest, they thought it was a big victory, but I didn't expect it to be so big, 70-126 in the whole game, losing 56 points!

1956 Eagles

At that time, it was still Bob Petty Hawks, both teams had a 33-39 record in the regular season, so they needed an extra game of absolute home court advantage, and finally the Lakers won the home court advantage, and in the series G3 Lakers defeated the opponent 133-75, creating a 58-point tragedy, but the Lakers were also tragic enough, they were finally eliminated by the Hawks, and they were the only team to be eliminated from this list.

2009鹈鹕

In the regular season, the Nuggets were second in the West, and the Pelicans were seventh in the West, the Nuggets at that time had Billups and Anthony, and the Pelicans were David West and Paul, in the fourth game of the series, the Nuggets defeated the Pelicans 121-63, and also created a 58-point fiasco, and finally the Nuggets also reached the Western Conference Finals, but in the end they lost to Kobe's Lakers, and Kobe Bryant led the team to win the championship this year.
