With its 100-96 loss in Game 5 on Wednesday night, the Oklahoma City Thunder became the 201st team that failed to come back from a 3-1 deficit to win an NBA playoff series.
The 1994-95 Houston Rockets are one of only eight teams to successfully come back and win. Thunder coach Scott Brooks won the world championship playing for Houston the previous season and was a reserve guard with the comeback Rockets, but he was traded on the night of that season’s trade deadline.
