In 2005, Chicago was up 2-0 in the 1st round, and lost. And somebody did it in 2004 as well.
3 times in the past 3 years, and only 5 times historically before that.
This year, Chicago, Phoenix, and Houston, hold 2-0 leads. Phoenix will probably close out the Lakers in 5, perhaps 4, but Chicago and Houston had better be careful.
