TBRW? Predictions 97 -- Second Half Improvement

Other factors being equal, teams that perform better down the stretch frequently continue that success into the following season. This modifier is computed by taking the team�s winning percentage over the second eleven games of the conference regular season and subtracting the winning percentage over the first eleven games.

To be more precise: 1/2 = ((Pts in games 12-22) - (Pts in games 1-11)) / 22.
