Ok, I had a calculation error in my first number:
How many of the last 64 playoff teams won their first game of the season: 48.43%
How many of the last 64 playoff teams won their first game of the season if it was played at home (33 games): 48.48%
How many of the last 64 playoff teams won their first game of the season if it was played away (31 games): 48.39%
How many of the last 64 playoff teams won their home opener regardless of when that happened: 60.94%
How many of the last 64 playoff teams won their home opener when it was the first game of the season (33 games): 48.48%
How many of the last 64 playoff teams won their home opener when it was not the first game of the season (31 games): 74.19%
To really make any claim to the value of these numbers it'd be best to compare them to the total league result in the same categories but I'm not doing that.
