How the number is built
Elo inputs in rating points (higher favors that team; 25–28 Elo is about a point of spread in football and basketball), then how the pieces combine.
| Factor | PHI | TOR | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Team rating | 1511 | 1398 | Elo entering the game; 1500 is league average |
| Home field | — | +36 | Worth 36 Elo in the NBA |
| Lineups | −83 | −46 | PHI: Weaker than its recent lineups · TOR: Weaker than its recent lineups (from the box score) |
| Elo ratings | PHI +39 Elo | PHI 55.6% | |
| Market-implied ratings | PHI 51.2% | Team strength as past closing lines priced it, same game context | |
| Pre-line forecast | PHI 51.6% | 10% Elo, 90% market-implied (log-odds blend) | |
| Forecast | PHI 65.5% | Follows the market (vig removed): in testing, adding the ratings made it less accurate | |
