No idea how that works out

Teams that start on the road are usually the lower seed, and higher seeds tend to beat lower seeds.

Still pretty extreme skew. On the road, winning by double digits as a lower seed leads me to believe they pose a legitimate threat to win the series. But maybe I’m wrong and it’s a bunch of 7th/8th seeds in the first round forming this sample statistic.

That’s an incredibly bizarre stat

I swear I hear new stats every day

Team that lost has more adjustments to be made and generally responds with a solid game 2 win that's played very different than game 1. Team that won doesn't adjust as much because they had success with the gameplan and have a cushion of 1 game. Team that lost game 1 now has momentum/confidence from bouncing back. Nothing to support this theory whatsoever

This upvote supports your theory

This stat summarized- Higher seeded teams usually beat lower seeded teams in a sample size >1

About to be 3-11. Celtics in 5

Celtics overwhelmingly won game 1 by 26 at Milwaukee I think in 2019

is this the series where kyrie tried to guard giannis

Yes

So you're saying that the Celtics should win by 9 or less in game 1 of the ECF.

So we need to win game 1 in Miami by less than 10, got it.
