A lot of that has to do with how the Spurs play.

They just play such a high variance brand of ball with all the 3s they take and the constant lineup shuffling. It is the right way to play for a team that doesn't necessarily have a signature go to guy but it lends itself to some lopsided scores both ways. They tend to rely on roleplayers more than your avg elite NBA team and as we know these guys can be pretty streaky

Last year in the finals only had 3 out of 7 competitive games as well.

It's the nba.. You can practically map each series out once you know who wins game 1.

If that was the case home vs away shouldn't matter

Why? roleplayers tend to play way better at home. A lot of the Spurs guys seem to play a lot better when frontrunning too (Danny Green best example of this)

I didn't say it was the sole reason either. Obviously Ibaka playing/not playing was the main difference over the 1st 4 games.
