NO, only one team has even managed to force a game 7, Portland against Dallas a few years ago.

That's what I was thinking of.

That's what's so killer about the Mav's vs the Heat in the Finals. They were 6 minutes from being up 3-0 and wrapping up a championship.......

With Friday's win in Portland, the Blazers became just the third team in league history to force a Game 7 after losing the first three. The others were Denver against Utah in 1994 and New York against Rochester in 1951.

Was that the same year that Denver beat the Sonics in the first round?

In search of another record, I heard the Celtics are going to let the Hawks win the first 3 so they can be the only team to ever come back from 0-3

Also, in serious it should be noted that the first round used to always be 5 games and that is where a lot of come backs would happen.
