There have been 8 teams to come back from a 3-1 deficit to win a playoff series going into the 2009 season. The following teams are listed below. Teams in bold had home court advantage.

1968 - Boston Celtics over Philadelphia 76ers (Eastern Conference Finals)

1970 - Los Angeles Lakers over Phoenix Suns (Western Conference Finals)

1979 - Washington Bullets over San Antonio Spurs (Eastern Conference Finals)

1981 - Boston Celtics over Philadelphia 76ers (Eastern Conference Finals)

1995 - Houston Rockets over Phoenix Suns (Western Conference Semifinals)

1997 - Miami Heat over New York Knicks (Eastern Conference Semifinals)

2003 - Detroit Pistons over Orlando Magic (Eastern Conference First Round)

2006 - Phoenix Suns over Los Angeles Lakers (Western Conference First Round)

Only 3 of these teams went on to win the NBA Championship - 1995 Houston Rockets; 1981 Boston Celtics; 1968 Boston Celtics. Rockets defeated San Antonio Spurs 4-2 in the 1995 Western Conference Finals and defeated Orlando Magic 4-0 in the 1995 NBA Finals. Rockets did not have home court advantage in either series. Celtics defeated Houston Rockets 4-2 in the 1981 NBA Finals and defeated Los Angeles Lakers 4-2 in the 1968 NBA Finals. Celtics had home court advantage in both series.

2013 - Brooklyn Nets should be over the Chicago Bulls (Eastern Conference First Round) unless the Chicago Bulls beat the Brooklyn Nets 99-93 in Game 7 of the 2013 Eastern Conference First Round.
