X-Stats
This is just my designation for a category of stats in games I think will determine the fate of the game as they are opposite or contradicting stats between the two teams. In postseason play especially both teams are above average teams and therefore do what above average teams do well and will be relatively even in some categories.....but who wins the crossed over (X) stat categories in addition to doing what they already do well? That's who wins the game a lot of the time.
Specific X-Stats to Watch:
*colors mean nothing other than to give your eyes an easier path to seeing the crossed over stats.
