And it's just not a statistically significant difference when we're talking about 8 playoff games vs 86 career regular season games. The margin of error would be like 30%, and that's without controlling for other factors like home/away and quality of opponent.
Not only that, but going back to my previous point, 25% of his postseason games were against New England on the road. You would automatically expect his postseason rating to be lower than his average career rating based on that alone.
