****NOTE****: Use these power ratings as a guide.
That's all I do. And this is exactly the purpose for it. I handicap my
games and analyze the matchups and I never tail them blindly. You want
to tweak it and compare it with your own number, go ahead. Don't come
here and start bashing and if it goes 1-12 one day, or if it's 5-27 in
the last three three days. Also don't celebrate if it goes 10-1 in one
day, or 27-8 in four days. It is a guide. Again, let me repeat IT IS A GUIDE.

VGPOP- the power ratings that you posted are very useful for capping games.I'm interested to know how or where I can find it. Can you tell me? Thanks in advance.

You cannot find these power ratings anywhere, I created and developed these power ratings myself.
I am thinking about adding days of rest to the ratings. It should not be that difficult because I already keep track of dates for all teams/games.
Should be able to add: No rest (0 days rest) 1 day rest 2 days rest 3+ days rest 3rd game in 4 nights 4th game in 5 nights
As of now, I average all three ratings to get a full power rating line for each game. But as teams play more games, OVERALL ratings will have less effect, and LAST 10 should be able to weight more.
LAST 10 50% ROAD/HOME 40% OVERALL 10%
But that's later, when teams have played at least 25-30 games.

VG - if u do decide to adjust for days rest, can u still post your original 3 ratings ( some people weigh that different than others ). Also, i know the overall rating has home court factored in, but Minnesota better than Phoenix ?!? i only have Phoenix by 2, but favored just doesnt seem right

I am not going to divulge the way my ratings work.
But I can tell you in the Phoenix/Minnesota matchup that Phoenix in their wins has not looked "good" or "dominant" against their opponent.

I'm on the Spurs tonight-- Bulls must be getting tired from this brutal road trip. SA playing well with new point guards just being asked to manage the flow of the game. The points are high but I don't mind laying the 325 to win 100 and take the spread out of the equation--
Denver looks good today also... Not sure the Clips have the firepower to keep up with the Denver point scorers-- losing two of your top 3 point shooters does hurt-
