    A Fun 2-3-2 Statistic...

    Since 1985, the year the 2-3-2 format was used for the first time, when a series is tied 1-1 after 2 games, the team that wins game 3 takes the series 100 percent of the time (10 out of 10 times).

    17 hours until game time.

    If you really truly believe Phil Jackson's 47-0 after a game 1 win stat is a truism, and have LA to take the series, this stat should push you into hammering the ML. GL all.

    Aside from the bad calls, this is the most exciting series in the last couple years.

    It's simple if history keeps on, and so far in these playoffs they pretty much have, the Lakers win tonight and win it all. I think in 7 ...

    Game 3 - Celts
    Game 4 - Lakers
    Game 5 - Celts
    Game 6 - Celts

    My feeling without it saying anything about my future plays:

    Game 3 - Lakers.
    Game 4 - BOS.
    Game 5 - BOS.
    Game 6 - Lakers.
    Game 7 - Lakers.

    Well then I really hope the Celtics win tonight so that between this stat and the Phil Jackson game 1 stat and there will be a battle of the weird, obscure stats.

    If the Celtics win tonight or win the championship one or two of the strongest stats in the NBA is dead.
    I hope they both keep on going.

    btw I got some pm's ... I'm NOT a Lakers fan. I'm a HUGE Rockets fan. None of my comments or picks are because or anything like that. I want a great series and a profitable one.

    Very nice stat PROfitable.

    Can you tell us how many times it was the lesser seed (game 3 home team) and how many times it was the higher seed (game 3 away team) that won game 3 and eventually the series?

    I can not, but suggest that you (as it may be time consuming), go on wikipedia

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984%E2%80%9385_NBA_season

    look up each individual season up until now and find out...

    i imagine this stat will be tough to come up with any other way...

    The first one is LA/Boston in 85, how fitting.

    Boston had HCA, and blew game 3 to the Lakers in LA, and LA went on to take it.

    1/1 for the away team...

    in 88 LA had HCA and ended up taking game 3 in Detroit.

    1 for home, 1 for away

    1990, Detroit has hca, takes game three in portland after a 1-1 two game split.

    Detroit goes on to win it in 5.

    2 for HCA, 1 for away

    1991, Chicago has HCA, takes game three and takes it in 5.

    3 for hca, 1 for away

    1992, Bulls have HCA, take game three and win it in 6

    4 hca, 1 away

    1994, Houston takes game 3 having HCA in the series

    5 hca, 1 away

    1998, Utah has hca and loses to Chicago game 3 after 1-1 split

    5 hca, 2 away

    2001 - Lakers take it in 5 after 1-1 split, winning game 3, HCA in the series

    6 hca, 2 away

    2003 - Spurs with hca, take game 3 and win it in 6

    7 hca, 2 away

    2004 - Detroit Pistons win it in 5, LA HCA

    7 hca, 3 away

    70 percent of the time the team with HCA takes game 3 in this format after a 1-1 split and goes on to win the title.

    So, 7/10 times the team who began the finals with home court advantage wins game 3 after a 1-1 split, 100 percent of the time the team who takes game 3 wins, 100 percent of the time (47-0) Phil Jackson has won a playoff series after winning game 1 and this celtics starting 5 has never lost a playoff series...

    how will it all add up when the 48 minutes are through?

    Game time in 11 hours.

    when the series is 1-1 the road team is 4-2 SU and 5-1 ATS in game 3 since the 2-3-2 format.

    Hey, sorry for the ignorance, but what is SU, and ATS mean?

    Also I have seen people typing "BOL"... what does this mean?

    Thank you

    I thought there were 10 such games not 6. With 6 it does favor the road team which is where I'm leaning. I wonder if Bos will start strong and a better # will be available in live betting in the 1st half? LA starts strong at home regularly but on the road in the playoffs? Can't wait for game time.

    I don't know what you mean here. It IS 10 games. I listed all ten games in prior posts.

    Given games 1 and 2 are a 1-1 split...

    70 percent of the time the team who began the series with home court advantage wins game 3.

    100 percent of the time the team that wins game 3 wins the series.

    This stat is since 1985, the first year the 2-3-2 format was applied, and has rang true in all ten games which began with a 1-1 split.

    ATS is against the spread?

    What is SU?

    Taking a shot here, "Straight Up"?

    Do you mean the team that is currently on the road? Or the team that didn't have the perk of hca?
