Ratings · 2022
| Dimension | Value | Unit | σ |
|---|---|---|---|
| OE | 1.20 | points per possession | 0.12 |
| DE | 0.87 | points per possession | 0.15 |
| ME | 0.33 | points per possession | 0.19 |
| PACE | 64.08 | possessions per game | 4.62 |
At season 2022's latest cutoff
(2022-04-05 01:20),
with 39 games played. OE is points scored
per possession, DE points allowed per possession, and the adjusted margin (ME) is their
difference — so 0.47 reads as +0.47 pts per possession, not 0.47 points. PACE is
possessions per game, a count, not a per-possession rate. The σ column shares
its row's unit.

Warm-up show · hidden
train_cutoff_at — a walk-forward replay for season 2022.
Axis spans 0.94 to 1.45 over
77 cutoffs. The shaded band is the model's own ±2σ
(AdjOE_sigma) — it is widest early, when few games have been
played. The warm-up stretch is hidden — the toggle
above brings it back.
This line is the smoothed rating: an exponentially-weighted causal
average of this team's own history (alpha 0.75 on each
factor), fitted once on five seasons and frozen — it removes cutoff-to-cutoff fit
noise without pulling the team toward the league mean.Record · 2022
