 WhoWins(tm) -- DOUBLE-SWEEP VS. DOUBLE-EKE
In series 844 -- the 2001 NBA Finals -- the Lakers don the guise of "double sweeper" against the Sixers, who likewise don the guise of "double eker".
From 1947 through 2000, NBA teams that eked out a seven-game win in their best-of-7 Qtrs series and did the same in their best-of-7 Semis series posted a 1-4 record in best-of-7 Finals series.
The sole winner provides an ironic precedent for the 2001 Philadelphia 76ers: It was the 1988 Los Angeles Lakers that eked out a seven-game win in their best-of-7 Qtrs series, did the same in their best-of-7 Semis series, AND eked out yet one more seven-game win in their best-of-7 Finals series.
