No team in NBA history has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit. The most recent comeback try was in 2010 between the Orlando Magic and the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals. Boston took the first two at Orlando, then took the next one on their home floor, then Orlando stole one in Boston, won the next one in Orlando, before falling big in Game 6 in Boston.
