NBA Crossover Grid answers for July 15
Today's new category is players who were on a team that lost a 3-1 lead in the NBA playoffs.
This means the correct answers are players that should have played for the Miami Heat and New York Knicks, respectively. Furthermore, at some point in their careers, they were part of one of the most embarrassing feats in the league: blowing a 3-1 lead in the postseason.
Notably, there have been 13 teams who lost 3-1 leads in NBA history. For Grid 7, some former Heat players who blew 3-1 leads include Lamar Odom and Ronny Turiaf (2006 Lakers), Dion Waiters (2016 Thunder) and Andre Iguodala (2016 Warriors).
As for Grid 9, here are some former Knicks players who were part of 3-1 lead-blowing teams: Tracy McGrady (2003 Magic), Sasha Vujacic and Ronny Turiaf (2006 Lakers), Emmanuel Mudiay (2020 Jazz), and Marcus Morris and Joakim Noah (2020 Clippers). All members of the 1997 Knicks are also good answers since they blew a 3-1 lead to the Heat.
