Hakeem Olajuwon and the Houston Rockets are the Biggest Underdog to Ever Win the NBA Finals
The 6th seed Houston Rockets are the lowest ranked team to ever win the NBA Finals after their Finals win in 1995. After first beating Karl Malone, John Stockton, and the Utah Jazz in the First Round, they went on to beat the 2nd seed Phoenix Suns in the Western Conference Semi Finals. Their last matchup in the West before the Finals was against the 1st seed San Antonio Spurs and reigning MVP David Robinson. In the finals, Hakeem Olajuwon and the rest of the Rockets faced off against a young Orlando Magic team that had just beaten Michael Jordan and the Bulls and came out on top.
