    I do feel an NBA team will eventually overcome an 0-3 hole. In this series, it would take a catastrophe to happen to the Warriors (major injury, extreme overconfidence or combination of both). I can't realistically see the Rox coming back from this as is.

    No one realistically saw the 2004 AL Wild Card winners coming back from an 0-3 deficit against the AL champions. They had infinitely worse odds to overcome.

    But some believed

    I have no idea what this video of baseball shows? But a comeback from 0-3 WILL HAPPEN one day. Let's get 1-3 first.

    Love it. Just keep playing until the last buzzer sounds. You never know.

    i believe. but this ain't baseball and curry is shooting above the greats which include miller and bird.

    we're injured, tired, and don't have dmo and bev. just hope 2 win at least 2 at this point.

    And of those four days

    Mariano Rivera is the greatest closer of all time. But it all started with one gutsy decision.

    Thank you shasta. Noone watches baseball here but I guess it's a legendary comeback taht had never been done before in all of baseball's history?
    I hope the Rockets can make history too.

    The whole narrative never have come back from 3-0 is a little hyperbolic. There have been only like 4 teams that even had the chance to come back by tieing to 3-3 and then failing to win 3-4.
    Judging from the whole picture of these games Rockets could very well be up 2-1 by now. The first two were extremely close games.

    It is basically if Golden State wants to win in Oakland or just end it with the sweep.

    Maybe if Morey brought in help for Harden at the deadline instead of a guy who's rotting on the bench and a 38 year old player we wouldn't be down 0-3
