We made it! The playoffs are finally here and it is time to really buckle down and get into the nitty-gritty of matchups and say goodbye to the rest of life for the next couple of months. A couple of rules of thumb with playoff basketball: The starters in a vast majority of cases will play more minutes, so when searching how often a prop has been eclipsed, try to look at small samples that more accurately fit the playoff role. Also, know the coach the player you are interested in is dealing with. If a coach is more willing to mix things up based on game flow versus sticking with what is known, that can add some extra volatility to a perceived sample. Call that the Ty Lue principle.
