Interesting Trend: Going back since 2000, every game with home team winning...

[jmp]

Every conference finals game, going back since 2000, after the home team wins their first two, they lose the third.
12: thunder against spurs
10: suns against lakers
07: cleavland against detroit
07: jazz against spurs
08: lakers against celtics
03: orleans against philly
00: knicks against pacers

There have been sweeps, but those sweeps began with away team winning first two.

This stats falls apart going back prior to 2000, Jordan Era. I think it has to do with officiating being different (rules) and new generation of players/play style.

I did this very quickly and I wish I knew this before the Spurs game. Any comments or corrections?

My point is...Pound Boston?

Well I was quite confident in Boston tonight, an extra boost was your thread and then a slightly smaller one was OKC's win at home. So thanks and nice find !
