PP-EPP EXPLANATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PP-EPP is Playoff Performance Minus Expected Playoff Performance. It is a statistic I created to gauge the overall performance of a team in the post-season. To get an idea of how it works, imagine a league with ten equally skilled teams that has a eight team playoff post-season that runs for exactly ten years. Under this system, you would expect any given team to make it to the playoffs eight times, make it to the semifinals four times, make it to the final twice, and win the playoffs once. If a team from this league had these exact results from ten years of experience, their PP-EPP would be 0.00, since their actual performance and the expected performance were exactly equal. However, if a team made it to the final every year, they would have a positive PP-EPP and if they never made the playoffs at all, they would have a negative PP-EPP. Furthermore, since the playoff structure is single elimination, we can assume that making it to the quarterfinals is twice as likely as making it to the semifinals, which is twice as likely as making it to the finals, which is twice as likely as winning the final. One other thing we need to consider is the number of teams in a given season. In a ten team league, it is much easier to make an eight team playoff than it is in a 16 team league. Likewise, winning MLS Cup against 15 other clubs is worth more than winning MLS Cup against 9 other clubs. So we need to take this into consideration when we create our expected values. Now I'll show you how I go about calculating these numbers.
In 1996, there are 10 teams and 8 playoff spots. We need to allocate points to all teams based on playoff finish. Let X be the number of points we allocate to the MLS Cup Winner. Then the runner up gets X/2 points, the semifinalists get X/4 points each, the quarterfinalists get X/8 points each, and the teams that did not make the playoffs get 0 points. We then want to "normalize" these point values so that their average (or expected value) is 1. So we set up the following equation:
RSL 5-3 0-0 3-1 1-2 1-0 4 of 7 +0.410
DCU 15-5 0-0 6-3 5-1 4-1 9 of 16 +0.384

Then the runner up gets X/2 points, the semifinalists get X/4 points each, the quarterfinalists get X/8 points each, and the teams that did not make the playoffs get 0 points. We then want to "normalize" these point values so that their average (or expected value) is 1. So we set up the following equation:
[X + X/2 + 2(X/4) + 4(X/8)] / 10 = 1
Solving, we get:
X + X/2 + X/2 + X/2 = 10 => (5/2)X = 10 => X = 4.
So for 1996, (and 1997, 2002, 2003, and 2004 - since they had the same number of teams), winning the playoffs gets you 4 points, being runner-up gets you 2 points, being a semi-finalist gets you 1 point, and being a quarterfinalist gets you 0.5 points. To see how this changes with the total number of teams, suppose we have 16 teams (as in 2010). Solving our equation again we get (5/2)X = 16 => X = 6.4. So then the champion gets 6.4 points, the runner-up gets 3.2 points, the semifinalists get 1.6 points, and the quarterfinalists gets 0.8 points.
In 2011, it becomes a little more rigorous because we have to deal with 10 teams in the playoffs. We can't say that a team is twice as likely to be a wildcard than a quarterfinalist, because there are only two wildcard losers. We set up our equation to note that there are 10 teams that make the playoffs (i.e. X/10) and that two teams will lose the wildcard matches (i.e. 2(x/10)). So we get:
[X + X/2 + 2(X/4) + 4(X/8) + 2(X/10)] / 18 = 1 => (27/10)X = 18 => X = 20/3.
So a quarterfinalist will receive 5/6 points, and a wildcard loser will receive 2/3 points.
A summary of points allocated per year is in the following table:
1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011
Champion 4.00 4.00 4.80 4.80 4.80 4.80 4.00 4.00 4.00 4.80 4.80 5.20 5.60 6.00 6.40 6.67
Runner-Up 2.00 2.00 2.40 2.40 2.40 2.40 2.00 2.00 2.00 2.40 2.40 2.60 2.80 3.00 3.20 3.33
Semifinalist 1.00 1.00 1.20 1.20 1.20 1.20 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.20 1.20 1.30 1.40 1.50 1.60 1.67
Quarterfinalist 0.50 0.50 0.60 0.60 0.60 0.60 0.50 0.50 0.50 0.60 0.60 0.65 0.70 0.75 0.80 0.83
Wildcard 0.67
Remember that we "normalized" every year so that the average (or expected value) is one for every year, so the overall expected value is one as well. Points earned in all years are then added up for each team and divided by the number of years that team has been in the league. Finally, our expected value (one) is subtracted. For example, Miami Fusion made it to the quarterfinals in 1998 and 1999, failed to make the playoffs in 2000, and made it to the semifinals in 2001. The point values for those years are 0.60, 0.60, 0.00, and 1.20. So Miami's PP-EPP is [0.60 + 0.60 + 0.00 + 1.20] / 4 - 1 = -0.400. If a team has never made the playoffs, their performance is 0, and their PP-EPP is 0 - 1 = -1.000. The PP-EPP for each team is in the final column of the PLAYOFF RECORD SUMMARY exhibit.
Solving, we get:
X + X/2 + X/2 + X/2 = 10 => (5/2)X = 10 => X = 4.
So for 1996, (and 1997, 2002, 2003, and 2004 - since they had the same number of teams), winning the playoffs gets you 4 points, being runner-up gets you 2 points, being a semi-finalist gets you 1 point, and being a quarterfinalist gets you 0.5 points. To see how this changes with the total number of teams, suppose we have 16 teams (as in 2010). Solving our equation again we get (5/2)X = 16 => X = 6.4. So then the champion gets 6.4 points, the runner-up gets 3.2 points, the semifinalists get 1.6 points, and the quarterfinalists gets 0.8 points.

We can't say that a team is twice as likely to be a wildcard than a quarterfinalist, because there are only two wildcard losers. We set up our equation to note that there are 10 teams that make the playoffs (i.e. X/10) and that two teams will lose the wildcard matches (i.e. 2(x/10)). So we get:
[X + X/2 + 2(X/4) + 4(X/8) + 2(X/10)] / 18 = 1 => (27/10)X = 18 => X = 20/3.
So a quarterfinalist will receive 5/6 points, and a wildcard loser will receive 2/3 points.
A summary of points allocated per year is in the following table:
1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011
Champion 4.00 4.00 4.80 4.80 4.80 4.80 4.00 4.00 4.00 4.80 4.80 5.20 5.60 6.00 6.40 6.67
Runner-Up 2.00 2.00 2.40 2.40 2.40 2.40 2.00 2.00 2.00 2.40 2.40 2.60 2.80 3.00 3.20 3.33

Quarterfinalist 0.50 0.50 0.60 0.60 0.60 0.60 0.50 0.50 0.50 0.60 0.60 0.65 0.70 0.75 0.80 0.83
Wildcard 0.67
Remember that we "normalized" every year so that the average (or expected value) is one for every year, so the overall expected value is one as well. Points earned in all years are then added up for each team and divided by the number of years that team has been in the league. Finally, our expected value (one) is subtracted. For example, Miami Fusion made it to the quarterfinals in 1998 and 1999, failed to make the playoffs in 2000, and made it to the semifinals in 2001. The point values for those years are 0.60, 0.60, 0.00, and 1.20. So Miami's PP-EPP is [0.60 + 0.60 + 0.00 + 1.20] / 4 - 1 = -0.400. If a team has never made the playoffs, their performance is 0, and their PP-EPP is 0 - 1 = -1.000. The PP-EPP for each team is in the final column of the PLAYOFF RECORD SUMMARY exhibit.
