    They said on ESPN in discussing the Denver-Dallas series that no team who lost a season series to another team by 3-0 or more has ever beaten that team in the playoffs.

    But didn't San Antonio sweep the season series 4-0 against us in 1995, then we beat them in 6 in the playoffs? Anyone know?

    The Spurs went 5-1 against us that year. There were a lot fewer teams then, and we used to play some division rivals 6 times a year.

    I dont really care what the history says. There will always be a first for something. No team ever won the championship w/o having won at least a series the year prior, but the C's became the first last year, so it'd be nice to make history ourselves. :)

    I was there.

    Hakeem was just on fire that game and abused the Spurs to no end. And once Maxwell got the ball, I knew it was over.

    Man that was a fun game to be at.

    Wafer needs to channel Mad Max in the next round. He must become our X factor in the series.

    Wafer certainly is fearless when it comes to shooting the rock.

    1989 I think, Chicago was 0 - 6 against Cleveland during the season. They won in the playoffs anyway.
