Thanks for clarifying. "the rules aren't that clear" is being generous. As they are written, I should be getting 2 home games. Someone should really fix them. It isn't that hard to write it up:

The end of a season isn't all fun and glory, however. Four teams from each division will be demoted to a lower level of divisions. The 8th seed in each conference is automatically demoted, and the 6th-ranked team from each conference competes with the 7th-ranked team from the other conference in a best-of-three relegation series. The sixth placed team has the home-court for the first match and for the tie-breaker(if a third game is necessary). The fifth-ranked teams are safe, but they dont get a shot at the championship, either.

For the single-match eliminations, the team with the higher standing is given the home-court advantage. For the best-of-three conference winners series, the team with the better win-loss record has the home-court for the first match and for the tie-breaker (if a third game is necessary), and the lower-ranked team has the home-court for the second match.

According to the game manual, I should have the home advantage in my relegation 3 game series, but i do not. Can someone explain why this is not so? I won 9 games, he won 6.

"When there is a best-of-three series, the team with the better win-loss record has the home-court for the first match and for the tie-breaker (if a third game is necessary), and the lower-ranked team has the home-court for the second match."

I think there's a case to be made that you should host all three, since with the better record you should have 1 and 3, and as the lower-ranked team you should host the second. ;)
