    have won the first two games on the road? Someone who has time should research this, because my bet is VERY FEW. Especially since the 7 game first round format. Therefore, fret not Blazer fans we did what we needed to due in the desert. Now we hold serve and we win the series. :dunno:

    Edit I have done some research, the first round 7 game format started for the 2003 playoffs. It has only happened twice, so if you are worried about losing tonight you should know that it would be VERY rare to win both on the round in the first two games.

    Houston 2005
    Game 1 April 23 Houston Rockets 98 @ Dallas Mavericks 86
    Game 2 April 25 Houston Rockets 113 @ Dallas Mavericks 111

    Utah 2008
    Game 1 April 19 Utah Jazz 93 @ Houston Rockets 82
    Game 2 April 21 Utah Jazz 90 @ Houston Rockets 84

    I did the research back to the first season where the first round 7 game series was put in place. It would be cool if someone wanted to go back even further, but I assume it is going to be few and far between.

    I'm not really that upset with the fact that we lost, I predicted that... but its the way we lost that is killin' me.
