Team most likely to come back from 3-1 down?

I really don't think any of these teams are good candidates but does anyone think any of them have a chance?

Easily the bucks. They haven’t been healthy and a chance exists they get everyone back. I might be crazy but I think bucks win the series and make a deep run.

I wouldn't take it that far but I agree the bucks have the best chance with 2 out of 3 at home against an inexperienced playoff team.

I do not believe Bucks will get healthy, and even if they were, are they actually that good, team plays .500 ball in Docs era.

I go with 76ers, that is a team that could be 3-1 if few things went different. And altho coming back would need a spectacular performance, at least I know that team is actually good.

Our one is coming back from 3-0 actually, which never happened in history.

Feel like if Jamal Murry is really injured (playing like he is) but if he's even more injured the Lakers may be able to pull off the impossible. They've led for a majority of the series even though they were down 3-0.

Also feels like the Sixers could do it, but with Joel limping around it's unlikely.

I don't believe anyone, but if I had to twist my arm, it's probably the Sixers.

Yeah, with Murray possibly hurt and less depth, I think probably the Lakers have the best chance but it is probably still near zero.

Here are current gambling odds:
Philly +650
Milwaukee + 1000
Lakers +1400

So, if you believe those odds they have Philly as the favorite, but only at ~13%; and every other team at lower.

Bucks if Giannis is 100% (he isn't)

Otherwise none of them (that's including the soft 76ers).

This checks out in my opinion. I would have them in the same order, odds I dont care as much, they are all nearly done.

sixers most likely.
lakers least likely, prbably out in game 5.

Celts17Pride · Post #14 » by **Celts17Pride** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 7:49 pm

The answer is no one but I would pick the Sixers. Knicks/Sixers, every game has come down to the wire.

I mean the 6ers are the better team and still undefeated with a healthy Embiid, so gotta be them right? :-p

Call in the fat lady for all three.

Bucks have a shot if they get suddenly healthy, but apart from that all of these teams are done.

my big bold charles barkley like opinion is that if the Lakers / Sixers win game 5, those series are going 7.

It's hard for me to watch this series and think these 6ers have the mental fortitude not to crumble in the garden, especially when Embiid starts to gas...unless they blow us out by 30+ in the 1st quarter and we never even get it close to being close.

Lol definitely a thing but i can see it becoming this glorious implosion if it gets to Game 7 in the garden

Which team is most likely to come back from 3-1 down to win series?
