A factor in this is that the game is played and scored differently in the elimination rounds. OPR is a measurement that may be considered when choosing alliance partners though for example, shooting is much more important in elimination rounds than it has been in qualifications to date. I would hope that the alliance captain has a plan to build the best alliance and make selections based on the way they believe and elimination round should be played knowing the game is scored and played differently.
