NBA COVID泡沫对NBA季后赛的影响:主场优势的案例研究

The Effects of the NBA COVID Bubble on the NBA Playoffs: A Case Study for Home-Court Advantage

Michael Price, Jun Yan

摘要:

由于COVID-19疫情,2020年NBA季后赛在迪士尼世界的泡沫中进行。这意味着没有球迷出席,比赛在中立球场进行,球队没有旅行,这在理论上消除了主场优势。这种设置引起了很多讨论,分析师和球迷争论它可能对游戏结果产生的影响。主场优势在历史上对NBA季后赛系列赛的结果起到了重要作用。2020年的季后赛提供了一个独特的机会,通过比较2020赛季和过去的赛季来研究泡沫和主场优势的影响。虽然许多因素都对比赛结果有影响,但得分是谁赢得比赛的决定性因素,因此得分是本研究的主要焦点。感兴趣的具体措施是球队得分总数和球队命中率的两分球,三分球,罚球。比较2020年与2017-2019年的主队和客队的这些指标表明,2020年季后赛比往常更有利于客队,特别是两分球和总得分。

英文摘要:

The 2020 NBA playoffs were played inside of a bubble in Disney World because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This meant that there were no fans in attendance, games played on neutral courts and no traveling for teams, which in theory removes home-court advantage from the games. This setting has attracted much discussion as analysts and fans debated the possible effects it may have on the outcome of games. Home-court advantage has historically played an influential role in NBA playoff series outcomes. The 2020 playoff provided a unique opportunity to study the effects of the bubble and home-court advantage by comparing the 2020 season with the seasons in the past. While many factors contribute to the outcome of games, points scored is the deciding factor of who wins games, so scoring is the primary focus of this study. The specific measures of interest are team scoring totals and team shooting percentage on two-pointers, three-pointers, and free throws. Comparing these measures for home teams and away teams in 2020 vs. 2017-2019 shows that the 2020 playoffs favored away teams more than usual, particularly with two point shooting and total scoring.
