Los Angeles Lakers are down 0-3 to Dallas Mavericks when it lost 92-98 on Friday. No team in NBA history has comeback from a 0-3 deficit and won the series.

However, Kobe Byrant was confident that they will be the first to do so and beat the Maverick.

I might be sick in the head or crazy or thrown off or something like that, but I still think we are going to win this series, Bryant said. I might be nuts. Win on Sunday. Go back home and see if they can win in L.A., he said after the game 3 loss.

When asked where that confidence comes from, the five-time NBA champion said: I don't know. I'm just nuts.

On the other hand Dirk Nowitzki of Dallas Mavericks said: [The Lakers] have a lot of pride over there in that locker room. We've got to take it. They're not going to give it to us.

Game 4 will be held on May 8 Sunday at 3.30pm EST.
