Lakers coach Phil Jackson has won nine NBA titles and had this to say after L.A. beat Phoenix Sunday:"I can't remember a game that was perhaps as dramatic as that one."
"It goes back perhaps to the Phoenix series (in 1993)," he said. "We had a triple overtime game against Phoenix in Chicago, where a lot of things happened, there were many lead changes at the end. It was one of those kind of games where it was a heartbreak to lose, and kind of a joy to win."
The Suns beat the Phil Jackson coached and Michael Jordan led Chicago Bulls in that triple overtime game during the 1993 NBA Finals where the Bulls went on to win the series 4-2.
Seven teams in NBA history have come back to win a playoff series after being down 3-1, as Phoenix is.
"To win three in a row is difficult," Nash said, "but they've done it to us and there's absolutely no way that we're incapable of doing it to them."
