Parity in Silver's NBA? (or: how wide open are the playoffs this year?)

@ByTimReynolds: Home W-L after 16 playoff gms:
'14: 7-9
'13: 14-2
'12: 12-4
'11: 13-3
'10: 13-3
'09: 11-5
'08: 13-3
'07: 13-3
'06: 13-3
'05: 12-4
'04: 15-1

The underdogs have beaten the higher seeded teams more than the opposite. And just look at the other seasons. Nothing comes close. If we don't accidentally win Game 1 despite the refs, it'd be 8-8, perfect parity.

This means we have to be careful with our home games.

Yeah, really. I think the Pacers will win their series. Miami for sure. Everything else is open.

But who'da thunk (to use bad grammar), going into the playoffs, that the two teams up 2-0 would be Miami, no surprise, Washington and Portland?

My wish list is Blazers/Warriors WCF - would that be entertaining????
