Is the Warriors comeback from down 3-1 to a great OKC team the greatest comeback...
Of all time?
Seriously.
Down 3-1 to a GREAT OKC team that beat a GREAT SA team and would've beaten the Cavs for a title.
I don't ever recall such a legendary and amazing comeback.

Good college starter

Didn't the Rockets dick slap the Clippers last year down 1-3? That was a pretty epic meltdown.

Possibly the '81 Celtics 3-1 comeback against the Sixers. BTW, they won the last three games of that series by margins of 2, 2, and 1 point.

It's like every action movie cliche where the bad guy beats the hero to the brink of death until he summons his true inner strength and knocks the bad guy out in one last desperate attack.

Yes
Suns 06 = 2nd best, after Kobe's game winner you can't tell me anyone thought they had a chance
Game 7 was a textbook display of 7SOL basketball

Considering that they would have been shitting the bed on their 73 win season and probably feeding a title to Bron, yea... it was pretty big.

This appears to be a strong contender on paper but I know virtually nothing about this series in particular. Any details beyond the fact that it was two 62-win teams going head-to-head? It looks like five of the seven games were decided by two points or less. That's pretty incredible.
Does the fact that the Warriors looked so dead in the water, absorbing two consecutive beatdowns, make their comeback even greater, in a strange way?

Record-wise, the Warriors should have been solid favorites in that Thunder series. But in all honesty, OKC was the better team. They were up 3-1, with two blowout wins in a row, and then 13 point leads in games six and seven.
That Sixers-Celtics series was one for the ages.

That wouldve been the biggest upset in NBA history if that garbage Laker team beat the Suns. At the same time, that Suns team was 1 rebound from losing the series so maybe Suns werent that good to begin with.
The Suns choking a 3-1 to Rockets in 95 was the best comeback bcause they won 2 of the final 3 games the road and game 7 on the road.

The Suns were the 2nd seed and the Lakers were the 7th seed and had zero business even winning a game against the Suns.
The Lakers started Kwame Brown, Luke Walton, and Smush Parker.
That comeback doesn't compare.

OKC would wipe the floor with the Cavs.
