Ignoring win order; considering site order: The team playing Game 1 @ H (San Antonio) has the following best-of-7 playoff series and games record through the 2014 NHL and NBA Semifinals rounds:
series record, all best-of-7 sports, all rounds: 835-413 (.669)
series record, all best-of-7 sports, Finals round: 163-83 (.663)
series record, NBA only, all rounds: 347-120 (.743)

Game 1 record, NBA only, all rounds: 343-124 (.734)

These records are drawn from the applicable 1248 best-of-7 NHL, NBA, and
MLB series played through the 2014 NHL and NBA Semifinals rounds. Note
in general that the greater the number of games or series fitting a
particular situation, the greater the significance of the corresponding
winning fraction:
For example, 0.800 is far more likely to come closer to the true winning
fraction in a given situation when the corresponding win-loss record is
400-100 rather than 4-1.
SERIES NOTES:
Pre-series assessment: In
the 2013-14 NBA regular season, the San Antonio Spurs finished eight
games ahead of the Miami Heat. From 1947 through the 2014 NBA Semifinals
round, when NBA teams led their best-of-7 playoff series opponents by
eight regular-season games, they have posted a best-of-7 playoff series
record of 21-6 (.778) in those series against those opponents.
MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series 1250 is the 54th best-of-7 NBA
playoff series for the San Antonio Spurs, and the 31st for the Miami
Heat. In best-of-7 NBA playoff series, the San Antonio Spurs have an
all-rounds series record of 33-20, a Finals-round series record of 4-1,
and a Game 1 record of 33-20 (with an active ten-Game 1 winning streak),
while the Miami Heat have an all-rounds series record of 22-8 (with an
active 11-series winning streak), a Finals-round series record of 3-1,
and a Game 1 record of 16-14. Series 1250 is the second best-of-7 NBA
playoff series meeting between the San Antonio Spurs and the Miami Heat.
The 2014 NBA Finals are a re-match of the 2013 NBA Finals, won by the
Miami Heat.
