title: Import ESPN mirror playoff results and derive postseason finishes
type: task
status: draft
description: >-
  ESPN mirrors (lid 122, derived_bracket) import no playoff-week matchups, so process-playoffs skips
  them and post_season_finish stays empty; import ESPN's playoff schedule results and derive
  finishes from them.

## Problem

Matchup sync imports ESPN regular-season weeks only (lid 122 2025 has no rows after week 14). With no postseason results stored, [[██████████████████████-████████-██████-██████-█████████-███████-█████████]] makes `process-playoffs` skip `derived_bracket` seasons by declaration, so `post_season_finish` and `overall_finish` stay NULL for every ESPN mirror season.

## Target

Import ESPN's playoff-period schedule entries (winners bracket and placement games) and derive `post_season_finish` and `overall_finish` from them, the way bracket mirrors derive them from `season_playoff_matchups`.
