Looking back, the model has had similar 1st Round playoff troubles; and there are good reasons, but they sound like excuses. Moreover, they are pretty much uncorrectable when basing projections on team/player past performance for the season. Which is to say, I have no “data” for loss of focus, or suddenly found intensity, but we’ve seen teams and players display both. Luckily, results for such nonquantifiable “data” are accumulated and will bear on projections moving forward. GLTA
