Nobody said it did. Just that the Spurs haven't won a Finals without homecourt yet.

I'm of the opinion that LeBron will be 1-3.

Last year I wasn't sure, but right now I'd just love Timmy to be on the biggest stage again.
After all 4:1 > 4:0 if you see the big picture!
Losing in the Finals at 37 years old will not hurt Tims legacy in any way, shape or form. In fact, just making the Finals at that age is a huge accomplishment.

I'd much rather be 4-1. A Finals appearance, even without winning, does a great deal of good for a franchise.
Re: 2nd best Finals Success ratio all time behind the Bulls.
Think of it this way. Even if you lose in the Finals, you've still been the Western Conference champion. And get to hang a "2013 Western Conference champion" banner on the rafters (which the Spurs do, I think - I think they hang black banners for Western Conference titles). That's an accomplishment in itself.
