    No team came back from 0-3 in nba playoffs history. Now, Three 3-0 series for the semifinals. Which 0-3 team has the best chance to create the history?

    Spurs, easily.

    Jazz just can't beat the Lakers. With Woodson and Johnson set to be free, Hawks' mindset is elsewhere.

    Pops + leadership of Duncan, Parker, Gino might will the Spurs to win a game or two.

    But I don't think neither team will overcome 0-3; its just, if any team can do it, it will be the Spurs.

    I chose none of them because the Spurs just don't have enough in the tank. In the unlikely event TD & TP revert to old form, it's possible.

    Another question could be which team has the best chance of winning game 4.

    4th option shouldn't have been given with the poll question.

    Out of the three, yes, Spurs. But as I said, neither of the 3 teams will mount, literally, a historical comeback.

    None of the above. Hawks already gave up after game 1. Jazz just don't have enough talent to beat the Lakers. Spurs don't have enough firepower to compete with Phoenix nor slow them down.

    Spurs definitely out of those teams.

    They could have won game 2 and game 3. They took huge leads in both games.

    Atlanta has just no chance. I will bet my house on that one lol

    I am willing to bet my car on Jazz not winning series. Lakers are too good.

    Current Spurs team has one of the best shots in NBA history of coming back 3 down.

    I voted for the Spurs, but its not going to happen.

    I would voted for the last option, because I think that is going to happen, but to be along with the thread topic, I picked the Spurs.

    Damn I wish the Nuggets had taken that game 7 against the Jazz in 1994. They rallied from 0-2 to take the #1 Sonics 3-2 in the first round. They rallied from 0-3 to force a game 7 only to lose it. At least the Rockets got to destroy the Jazz en route to their first championship.

    I would say none of those teams have a chance to come back , but if i had to pick a team i would say prolly the Spurs . Hawks are losing every game by avg 30 pts/ game . Jazz are playing well , they just dont match up well with Lakers.

    If there's a team to pick, it's the Spurs. But it's really unlikely that any of the 3 teams down 0-3 will win the series.

    I can promise you it won't be Atlanta. As far as they're concerned, the series was over to them after Game 2.

    i gotta ask are you a Cavs fan , it seems you have been hating on the Magic since i have joined the forum . U seem never give credit to the Magic and always dogging on them regardless they are 7-0 in the playoffs .

    The Spurs are not going to win that series.

    No way.

    I respect history, but the Spurs don't have enough to match up with Phoenix for 4 quarters.

    They may take today's game, but when they go back to Phoenix, it's over.

    Dude, what? For starters, I grew up and live in Pittsburgh so that should tell you something about the odds of me ever being a fan of a team from Cleveland. Second, where in that post about the mental weaknesses of the Hawks did I give any indication of a verbal jab at the Magic? Read the thread title -- which 0-3 team has the best chance to create history, and I said it will absolutely NOT be the Hawks. If anything, that should be considered praise for the Magic given that there's a zero percent chance of the Hawks coming back to win the series. How you misconstrued that as Magic "hate" is quite puzzling, but to answer your question I'm a gigantic Rockets fan that just so happens to like and follow the Hawks very closely (yeah, shoot me).

    Well the reason i asked you "if you were a Cavs fan " is obviously Cavs /Magic fans have a pretty young yet quite nasty rivalry due to both teams will continue to battle each other for Eastern supremacy for years to come.
    I was just wondering because most of the threads it seemed you have banged on the Hawks way too much , and not giving enough props to the Magic. But i apologize if i had misread the posts , but now since you mentioned you follow the Hawks i get now why you seem to bang on the Hawks a lot.
