You're welcome guys, hope this comes in handy. Don't take TOOOO much out of this though as the teams change drastically from year to year.

I don't see what past playoff statistics have to do with current teams.

Bobcats are in the playoffs this year.

You wrote Hornets. And the Bobcats clinched their first ever playoff berth this season, so how do they have playoff stats?

thanks sj. yeah don't look too much into these stats. playoffs are all about matchup diagnosis, not line movement and all that bs, it's all player matchups. a lot of atl's lack of road success in the playoffs of the past couple of years is because of their youth a few years ago/lack of experience and last year they faced a Much better first round opponent that has a top 3 palyer in the world.

And I would add that the Hawks and Cavs were the two teams that exited last year before they felt they deserved to (as do all teams, but these two stand out to me). IMO, they're the most determined to be competitive and are going to continue to be great bets, particularly in the first half, in every game they play.
