NBA Elimination Game Totals: 2015 Playoffs

BetCrimes1984

CTG Big Brother
Playoff basketball brings the the table sudden-death basketball, which is a scenario perfect for the manifestation of Under results - tight players executing deliberate plays isn't the ground upon which liberal scoring is made.

*An elimination game is when at least 1 team faces an end to their post season should they lose the game concerned straight-up.

------------------------------<wbr abp="3089">------------------------------<wbr abp="3090">----------

Since keeping records (based on opening lines) starting with the 03-04 post season, the stats I've accumulated for all Elimination games total results are as follows:


Overall

All Elimination Games: U/O 120-79-3

Elimination Games being game 4 or 5 of a Series: U/O 50-43-1
Elimination Games being game 6 or 7 of a Series: U/O 70-36-2


1st Round of playoffs

All Elimination Games: U/O 67-44-2

Elimination Games being game 4 or 5 of a Series: U/O 35-24-1
Elimination Games being game 6 or 7 of a Series: U/O 32-20-1


2nd Round & onwards of playoffs

All Elimination Games: U/O 53-35-1

Elimination Games being game 4 or 5 of a Series: U/O 15-19
Elimination Games being game 6 or 7 of a Series: U/O 38-16-1

Clearly the prime spots to take Unders are in a game 6 or 7 taking place during the 2nd round or beyond (a losing rate of only 29.1%), when both teams have a series win under their belts and are both winners of at least 2 games in the current series.


The one team to prove the exception to the above trends over the time span to which these stats apply (and whose results I've not included above) was the Amar'e Stoudemire era...

Phoenix Suns

Elimination games they won SU: U/O 2-8
Elimination games they lost SU: U/O 4-2

For this incarnation of the Phoenix Suns it didn't matter the nature of the game (4, 5, 6 or 7) they were playing in, or what Round they're playing it in, as related to their final total result: it came down to their SU performance.

what's the full U/O results in elimination games look like if you withdraw the games that went into OT, sending the game overs.
Last question, have you got the U/O results of elimination games for first half only?:cheers3:
 
is there more OT in Playoffs than in regular season??

I don't know specifically, but I'd guess the playoffs would at minimum see the same rate.

Sorry, edoux1, I don't have either of those stats.
 
Since 2005-6 season:
Game 7 - 10O - 13U (no overtimes)
Game 6 - [FONT=Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif]25O - 41U - 2V (3 times game went overtime - without it - 22O)
[/FONT]
 
In Game 7 since 2006-7 season:
Round 1 - 7O - 4U
In other rounds - 2 - 6 in Under favor
 
do you know all U/O for games 7 only over last 5 seasons (1-4 rounds)? cause indian cowboy from docsports.com says public feeling is it goes under whereas data indicate it goes often over. he said he wasn't surprised game 7 beetween spurs-clipps went over in his free video pick:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn1bCg7Muig
 
try tu use the database to make few more queries: biggest money making opportunities are games 5/6 elimination games and also game 3 when serie is tied 1-1, 63/69/63 going back to 2006 unreal
 
I'll go with live betting, no pre-game bet. Houston's effort? Need to see it for myself, I'd only be guessing either way otherwise.
