Administrative Notes:
Gremlins preying upon the web hosting organization for this site have wreaked such havoc that certain series pages load in pre-Game 1 form (rather than through the latest game), thus forcing stale historical victory probabilities upon readers. Refreshing such pages manually seems to activate the latest pages. Regrets for the inconvenience.

After Wednesday:
The 2022 NHL Finals Game 4 loss by the Tampa Bay Lightning ends their best-of-7 NHL playoffs Game 4 winning streak (in the wake of a 2-games-1 deficit) at six. The sole Tampa Bay best-of-7 NHL playoff series victory in the wake of a 3-games-1 deficit occurred in their last such series, in the 2011 NHL Preliminary round over the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Warriors Redux:
The 2022 NBA championship for the Golden State Warriors is their fourth in eight seasons. The 2022 NBA Finals victory by the Golden State Warriors is the fourth consecutive best-of-7 NBA playoff series victory by the Warriors (befitting a newly-crowned NBA champion), the fifteenth best-of-7 NBA playoff series victory by the Warriors in their last sixteen such series, and the 22nd best-of-7 NBA playoff series victory by the Warriors in their last 24 such series (beginning with the 2015 NBA playoff season).

In-Game Comeback of Spring 2022:
On Thursday, 21 April 2022, the Memphis Grizzlies trailed the Timberwolves in Minnesota by 16 points after three quarters of their Game 3, but prevailed. In the history of best-of-7 NBA playoff games beginning in 1947, road teams down 16 points after three quarters prior to this Game 3 had a 0-54 (.000) game record. So it is that the Memphis Grizzlies achieved a Grade-A+ comeback (.000 - .099) in their Game 3 - the best in-game comeback for a game victory in the Spring 2022 best-of-7 playoff season thus far.
