What the columns mean
- #
- League rank in this situation, by the gap from the team's own season baseline. Teams with fewer than five games in the situation are listed but left unranked.
- Record
- Wins and losses in final regular-season games matching this situation.
- Avg margin
- Points scored minus points allowed, per game, in those games. A minus sign means the team was outscored.
- Season
- The same figure across all of the team's games — its own baseline, not the league's.
- Vs. season
- Avg margin minus Season: how much better or worse the team plays in this situation than it usually does.
How it's counted
Average margin is team points minus opponent points, over final regular-season games only; ties are impossible in basketball, so every game lands in a win or a loss column.
Conditions overlap — a back-to-back can also be a long-travel game. Teams with fewer than five games in a situation are listed but left unranked, since a two-game sample says nothing.
These are descriptive splits, not causal estimates: they do not adjust for opponent strength, injuries, or home court.
