  I wish I couldve seen what AI actually did. But that was a ridiculous explanation and reasoning.

  i would have to say that home field advantage would be greater in baseball and football because of the differences in weather and the size and shapes of the feilds for baseball....most nba courts are very similar...the foul shot differential is rediculous home and away for nba

  Absolutely disagree with this. The court or field is the same in any sport, but you aren't affected by the backdrop in football or baseball the way you are in basketball. When it's familiar you'll shoot more consistently. It's like that in all levels of basketball, not just the NBA.

  you're wrong about baseball. shadows, batter's eye, dome roofs/sky, lighting, playing surface, foul territory, field dimensions, ground rules, distance between home plate and backstop, all sorts of nooks and crannies.

  Soccer fields are also tremendously different.
  
  The field size of the smaller clubs is typically smaller so they dont get as spaced vs the better teams, and vice versa.
  
  Fast paced teams will water the field before the game and at halftime.
  
  Home teams going against a faster, more skilled team wont cut the grass and wont water the fields
  
  etc.

  Baseball fields aren't different until you get to the fence. That doesn't matter all that much, especially since both teams play with the same fence.
  
  Shadows are shadows. Both teams play with it, you don't necessarily get used to that when playing at home.
  
  You get used to what you see when you look up at the hoop in your own gym. Like I said, it happens at every level of basketball but I don't really care if you don't agree.
  
  And also, like I said, travel has a lot to do with it. Travel is tougher on players in the NBA than any other sport.

  "leave me alone" lol

  Don't both teams play with the same 10 foot hoops?

  One team plays 41 games and practices with the same backdrop. The other team might play 2 games in that gym in a year. Just like every other thread, you're not reading what is there and taking it for what it is. I'm not talking about the court.

  phantom foul late in a close game. go nba.
• dat dude

  Backdrops are different at every baseball stadium as well. Further, weather isn't an issue in basketball.

  No shit, they're different in football too.
  
  You clearly didn't read what I said, you're affected by the backdrop more in basketball than any other sport.

  One of the biggest home field advantages in all of sports was the Minnesota Twins old stadium. Their dome would screw with opposing players big time.

  About which point?
• dat dude

  I read what you said. You don't think backdrops play a major role in baseball? LOL. There is a reason the MLB tries to make the backdrops as uniform as possible. How different are backdrops in basketball? Don't they all have a crowd behind them?
  
  And once again, weather is a major issue in outdoor sports. Hence, plays a major factor in home field advantage.

  Arenas have different lighting, layouts, banners, seating arrangements, etc. Every time you look up to score points, it comes into play.
  
  In baseball, the pitcher is the same distance away in every stadium, and when you're focusing in on a pitch you aren't paying much attention to what is 400 feet ahead of you.
  
  Like I said, which is being ignored because it kills other arguments, travel has a bigger role than it does in any other sport as well.
  
  Weather is relative, both teams play in the same weather.

  Yeah but this could play a huge factor
