Whats the greatest comeback in NBA History?

Could be playoffs or regular season. But don't just say (THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE) Lakers came back to beat Heat...I want details please thanks!!



Whats the greatest comeback in NBA History?nba street homecourt





New York Knicks vs Milwaukee Bucks. Saturday night, November 18, 1972. Abdul-Jabbar and Oscar Robertson and the rest of the Bucks had them down by 18, 86-68 with less than six minutes left, and folks were heading for the Garden exits.



“I always felt that you’ve got no place to go anyway,” Holzman would say two decades later. “You can’t go to the movies until the game’s over. You can’t go out to dinner until the game’s over. So you might as well give it your best shot ‘til it’s over. Then you go home.”



The Knicks scored 19 straight points and held the Bucks scoreless over the final 5:50. Monroe had 11 of the 19, including a jumper with 36 seconds left that made it 87-86 Knicks and sent the Garden into a frenzy.



And completely forgotten is the fact that the Knicks committed two huge blunders in the final minute, yet still escaped. With 47 seconds left and Milwaukee up by one, Monroe fouled Lucius Allen off the ball. . . and Allen, a 71% shooter that year, bricked both free throws. Then, with the ball and a one-point lead, the Knicks thought they could run it out, not realizing there was a two-second differential between the shot clock and game clock. Look on the tape and you’ll see Monroe, in the frantic final second, trying to call time-out. Too late. Twenty-four second violation, Bucks ball with :02 left. But Kareem shot long at the buzzer, and the comeback was complete.



Whats the greatest comeback in NBA History?nba salary cap ,nba teams



I was going to say the Lakers coming back from a 28 point lead(not 25) against a very good Dallas team who had Finley, Dirk, and Nash. I'll go when the Lakers after being down 20 in the 1st quarter against the Kings in a pivotal game 4 and won and came back with Big Shot Rob's miracle shot.
think when Kobe brought his team back agaisnt the Raptors and scored 81 points to blow them out
to many to name. a few teams have been down 0-3 and won a playoff series.
the 2000 western conference finals between the lakers and the blazers; this was essentially the nba finals, with a balanced blazers team versus shaq and kobe at their peak. The blazers were up by 13 going into the 4th, and 15 about 10 minutes to go. What happened next was the greatest comeback in playoff history. The lakers went on a 15-0 run, Shaq dishing to kobe and the role players draining outside shots. The blazers couldn't buy a bucket, rasheed was melting down and scottie pippen looked like he was looking for mj. The lakers went on to win the game, and won the first shaq%26amp;kobe championship.

Lakers beating Seattle.



Actually, I don't think this is necessarily the greatest comeback ever, but it's one you don't hear about.



In the 1987 Western Conference Finals, the Lakers took a 2-0 lead into Game # 3 in Seattle. The Sonics came out in game 3 totally fired up, and built a 41-12 lead (that's not a misprint) at the end of the first quater.



A friend of mine (who's a Celtics fan) kept calling me up everytime Seattle scored and widened their seemingly insurmountable lead... After not answering the phone for several of those call attempts, I finally picked up the phone, and calmly told him that the Lakers were going to win that game... (I wasn't really sure of that, but Seattle was celebrating like they'd just won the series, and I knew they'd have no energy left by the 4th quarter, if the Lakers could just come back and stay reasonably close.... Seattle just wore themselves out celebrating.



Anyway, the Lakers came back and won the game 122-121 to take a 3-0 series lead...they clinched the Western Conference title the next game with a 133-102 blowout, earning the right to play the defending champion Celtics in the finals... the final Magic/Bird playoff matchup.



Again, that wouldn't be on anyone's list of the greatest comeback of all time, but I just thought I'd shed some light on a nice little comeback that is not remembered today... just another Laker victory on their march to a title.



That Seattle team was led by Dale Ellis, Tom Chambers, and Xavier McDaniel, who averaged 24.9, 23.3 and 23.0 points per game during the regular season.
cavs down by 2 come back and beatin dtroirt
lakers dallas regular season like four five years ago down 25 points late win game kobe says give me the damn ball and i win the game team says here kobe we know you can do it you dont need us so kobe shoot shoot shoot and lakers win game down 25 after threee quarters and win in regulation true story i have rings that say so believe it
November 27, 1996 Utah vs. Denver. Utah came back from 35 points to win 107-103.
The old Ft.Wayne Pistons were down by 32 against Syracuse in 1959 and came back to win by 2. Ft. Wayne still holds the record of scoring 7 points in 4 seconds
