All,
Sorry for the delay, but I've added the 2008 playoff data to basketballvalue.com. The data is of the same form as usual, with the exception of adjusted +/-. Rather than calculate it on a small dataset, I've combined the playoff data with the regular season data but weighted the playoffs as 15x as important as the regular season.
This weighting is based on the ratio of the number of possessions in the 2007 playoffs to the 2007-2008 regular season. There were approximately 15x as many possessions in the regular season as the playoffs, so this weighting is intended to treat the regular season and the playoffs as equally important overall. Of course, this implies a playoff game is more important than the regular season since there are fewer of them.
As always, you can still view the unadjusted data. The unadjusted data show for the playoffs is solely from the playoff games. With the small sample size, there can be some outlier results. Click here to see the top players based on unadjusted +/- (Overall Rating = On Court-Off Court).
Please let me know if you have any comments or find any issues on the website.
Thanks,
