Of 135 NBA series where the team without home court was down 3-1 only two teams have come back and won. The 1968 Celtics and 1995 Rockets. basketball-reference.com/blog/?p=9509
The Rangers just completed a comeback from down 3-1 with game 7 on the road. It can be done! http://sports.yahoo.com/news/rangers-cap-comeback-top-penguins-015232323--nhl.html PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Henrik Lundqvist set an NHL record with his fifth straight Game 7 victory, making 35 saves to lift the New York Rangers to a 2-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night and earn a spot in the Eastern Conference finals. Brian Boyle and Brad Richards scored for New York, who rallied from a 3-1 series deficit for the first time in the franchise's 88-year history.
By the way, 2 of these happened last year in the first round. The Celtics and Rockets came back from 0-3 to force a Game 6.
Yep. That was a great run. They came back from 2-1 in the first round to win in OT in Game 5 against Utah. Then in the second round, they were down 1-3 and Barkley missed two free throws that would've won the series for Phoenix at the end of regulation. Houston won in OT. Then in WCF, the Rockets won Games 1 & 2 in San Antonio only to lose Games 3 & 4 at home. They ended up winning the series in 6 games. Then the Magic led by 20 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals but Rockets came back to trail by 3. Nick Anderson missed two FTs and then got the offensive rebound and got fouled again. He missed both free throws again and Kenny Smith hit a three to force OT where the Rockets won en route to a 4 game sweep that Nick Anderson never recovered from. Unbelievable run by the Rockets. They played awful after the Drexler trade and then just pulled it together in the playoffs and won those four rounds, all without HCA.
