A numerical comparison of the NBA regular season and NBA playoffs.

The first two columns are the estimated means (μ), followed by estimated difference in means (Δμ), and posterior probability that the difference is positive (). The fifth and sixth column are the estimates slopes (s), followed by estimated difference in slope (Δs), and posterior probability that the difference is positive (). Posterior probabilities under 0.01 or over 0.99 are marked with *. The second line for each variable contains the standard errors for the estimates. Note that the posterior distributions of μ and s are approximately normal so ± 2 standard errors is approximately the 95% Bayesian posterior confidence interval. Note that all estimates except for F.NP and Entropy.MIN are multiplied by 100 to simplify interpretation.
