One of the rare instances of an NBA team overcoming a 3-1 series deficit actually involved these two teams more than a quarter-century ago, when the Knicks flushed a 3-1 lead to the Heat in the second round in 1997.
Overall, teams have taken a 3-1 lead in an NBA playoff series 276 times, including six in the first round this year. Only 13 of those 276 have seen the trailing team come back to win the series. The Warriors also face a 3-1 hole in the second round.
