Re: How Many Teams Have Come Back From Down 3-1?
How may teams have come back from 3-1 and lost Game 7 at home? I bet few if any.
Re: How Many Teams Have Come Back From Down 3-1?
Why bother with old stats on who does this or that? If we put stock in that, then there is no way Spurs should have won last nite. Remember how bad there are facing elimination?
It is all about who shows up to play at what level on that particular nite.

Dunno, but the '95 Rockets has to be #1.
Two road wins to stave off elimination? That's nuts.

The '68 76ers were the defending NBA Champs. What Boston did was pretty incredible though they were the greatest team in NBA history.

The defending champion 1982 Boston Celtics did just that, against the same team they had come back from a 3-1 deficit to win against the previous year...This series aint over.

So there is more than one.

Since it's out there, the '94-95 Knicks also came back from a 3-1 deficit only to lose game seven at home.
I would have to agree. It's far from over.
