Again, never know what you‘re going to get with this team. We can guess and might be right, and overall we could be right, but any individual game, I wouldn’t bet on. Stupid loss to the Spurs.

Other Format, Side by Side:

I did not remove our games from the overall record like I sometimes do. For example, taking out our three wins, the Pelicans are actually 25–14, which is a .641 percentage Instead of .595. Chicago is a .425 percentage against everyone besides us compared to .452 including their wins. beating a .641 team and losing to a .425 team is a bigger swing.

 

[MHSL82]

We are 13-16 when we have the same or better record than our opponent going into the game. (3-0 when the same record.)

We are 8-7 when we have a worse record going into the game. (11-7 if you include having the same record.)

 

[MHSL82]

9-5 in easily decided games (10+ Win or Loss)
5-12 in middle of the pack (5-9 Win or Loss, not including OT)
7-6 in close games (4 Points or fewer, including all OT)

With luck, we could have been 27-17.
Without, we could be 14-30.

Yes, I know not above are perfect because games can be up by six and make a three pointer at the buzzer to make it a three point game. For example, our win over Cleveland, we were up by five points with 2 seconds to go or so, and Mitchell hit a three to make it a 2 point win. I could, but I don’t want to go through each game like that.

I would make some of the Chicago losses as worse than you had them.

I’m just going on percentages. But yes, those losses are bad, especially being both of them.
