Despite the small size of samples and postseason is not over, I have made a quantitative analysis of playoff teams. Download the analysis in spreadsheets in case you would like to.

Not to mention the results of the teams who were eliminated in the first round don't tell the whole story since they have played against only one opponent. First of all, let me explain what "4 factors" is.

We had 1230 games in 2007-2008 regular season.  A couple of teams were the real outliers. Hey, haven't you noticed NBDL was fully integrated with the NBA  this season? "West side story" was somewhat different, as competition level has gone nuts. Statistical comparison between afternoon and night games has revealed the facts behind the boring matinee games which are originally designed for "family & friends", not for basketball sport.
