Thru the first 22 playoff games, 20 best individual performances.
GameScore is multiplied by 100/(Opp Pts) to derive GSc2.
"game" (for lack of another term) = (GSc2 + 2*(BPM+5.25)*min/48)/3 -- the BPM component counts twice as much as adjusted GmSc, for now.

Det-Cle are 3-3.
Knicks have been 5-6 ppg better than Pistons and 8-9 over Cavs.
Spurs are closing the gap on Thunder, but J Dub may be back and close to full speed. Then, too, Wemby may not miss games.

IF Thunder lose, it will be heavily "because" of some combination of about 7 Thunder names and probably 3-5 Spurs. Will try to sort that out, if it happens.

MVP Contenders seem to not be doing so well in the postseason so far.
Eight players received at least one vote, Luka and Kawhi did not make the playoffs, and 4 others made the b-r.com top 10 mvp-likely list.
Regular season rates on the left, playoffs on the right:
Code: Select all
mvp? vPts PER WS/48 BPM G PER WS/48 BPM
Shai 939 30.8 .323 11.7 9 26.2 .246 6.1
Jokic 634 32.3 .316 14.2 6 22.7 .133 8.0
Wemby 569 29.9 .257 10.7 11 29.3 .298 10.1
Cade 117 21.6 .174 6.3 14 18.2 .098 3.4
J Brown 89 22.0 .135 3.3 7 18.5 .078 2.9
Mitchell 1 22.9 .169 5.1 14 18.4 .110 1.2
Duren 0 26.1 .266 5.0 14 13.8 .094 -1.7
Murray 0 21.8 .173 4.1 6 14.7 .009 -0.8
Durant 0 21.1 .180 4.5 1 13.8 .005 -1.7
Holmgren 0 21.6 .219 4.2 9 23.4 .243 4.9
averages 25.0 .221 6.9 avg 19.9 .131 3.2
We expect dropoff in PER and WS rates, but the BPM drops are nearly universal also.
Perhaps fatigue is hitting the biggest the hardest? Additional minutes should also create more WS and VORP, all else being equal.
Per game WS and VORP, RS and PO:
Code: Select all
mvp? G WS/G vorp/G G WS/G vorp/G
Shai 68 .22 .115 9 .19 .075
Jokic 65 .23 .142 6 .11 .099
Wemby 64 .16 .094 11 .19 .093
Cade 64 .12 .072 14 .08 .056
J Brown 71 .10 .046 7 .06 .044
Mitchell 70 .12 .060 14 .08 .029
Duren 70 .16 .050 14 .06 .002
Murray 75 .13 .055 6 .01 .012
Durant 78 .14 .060 1 .00 .003
Holmgren 69 .13 .045 9 .16 .056
averages .150 .074 avg .095 .047
weighted by PO games avg 91 .105 .048
Weighting by games played so Durant's case does not deform the curve as much as those Pistons, say.
The difference is not much.
