Will history or home crowd determine outcome of Game 7 versus Milwaukee?

The quick answer is neither one! To get as basic as possible, the team that puts the most points on the board will determine the winner of this series. Without going too much into numbers, history for Game-Seven outcomes heavily favors the home team, but history has no direct effect on player, or team, performance. Per Boston.com's Tim Reynolds, The Celtics have been involved in 31 7th games and have won 22 of them. The Bucks have been there nine times and came out with a 2-and-7 record.
