	Player Value: The Postseason Effect -- The Hardball Times
		By analyzing team attendance for the years immediately following a team’s initial postseason appearance, and adjusting for the team’s number of wins and other important factors, such as the new stadium effect, I was able to quantify the attendance and revenue effect from a postseason appearance.
		It is important to differentiate an “initial’ postseason appearance, defined as the first trip to the playoffs in a 3-year period, from successive postseason trips.
		I’ve layered the value of the postseason (PS $) on top of the estimation of the win-curve (Win $), the concept and principles of which were detailed in parts 1 and 2.

	Playoff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		However, the NBA system differs from other sports playoffs in the fact that division champions are not guaranteed home-court advantage at any time in the playoffs, as home-court advantage is decided strictly on regular-season record, without regard to seeding.
		Oakland Athletics general manager Billy Beane, for his part, has called for each league's postseason tournament to be seeded strictly by regular-season record without regard to whether a team has won its division.
		At the beginning of each round the teams were seeded based on their regular season point totals, with the preliminary round being a best-of-five series while all other playoff series were best-of-seven.

	deseretnews.com \| Postseason criticism
		What follows is a list of my preseason rankings for the shows that debuted last fall (published Sept. 9, 2005) on the six broadcast networks, along with my postseason analysis as to how the season turned out.
		Overall, I'm not too displeased with myself — although I wish some of the shows had performed better in terms of quality, ratings or both.
		Here, then, are the preseason and postseason rankings of those shows, based entirely on quality and the opinion of one person — me. (An asterisk on the postseason list indicates the show was canceled.)
