ESPN's BPI Playoff Odds

• ESPN Analytics

ESPN's NBA BPI Playoff Odds estimate the likelihood for each team to make the playoffs, win the NBA title and finish in the top three of the NBA lottery.
The BPI Playoff Odds are based on ESPN's NBA Basketball Power Index (BPI), a measure of team strength developed by the ESPN Analytics team. For more background, see: What is ESPN's NBA Basketball Power Index?
Each day, the season is simulated 10,000 times, according to BPI and the remaining schedule for each team.
