Some finals stats: Phil Jackson is 47-0 in a playoff series after winning game 1. Since the 2-3-2 format was introduced in 1985, the winner of Game 3 when a Finals series was tied 1-1 has gone on to win 10 out of 10 occasions. In the history of the Finals, when the series has been tied going into Game 3, the winner of that contest has gone on to win 28 of 32 series (87.5 winning percentage).
