    I'm going to start making money by betting the opposite of stats-boy Hollinger.

    This Hollinger bas is like a gambler. He's banking on the law of averages to catch up with the spurs. Keep betting against them until he's right, then say "see, I told ya they aint good enough" Sick idiot. I can't believe ESPN actually pays for his .

    It's not so much expert predictions, it's just the teams they want to see win. They're just expert homers.

    Couldn't ask for a more beautiful set of picks, considering that line through the middle perfectly delineates the dumbasses from the people who's opinion is worth noting.

    Hollinger doesn't watch basketball. Andade is still a beat writer. Broussard is a tabloid writer. Ford's just an idiot.

    Although for the life of me I can't remember Legler actually playing basketball, I generally respect his analysis.

    Abbott's kind of a tool but he's coming around. He has something of a wierd obsession with the Spurs. If Portland doesn't make the playoffs next year and the Spurs field a good team, I could see him picking Spurs a lot more often. Otherwise his blog might turn into a clearinghouse for every random Spurs diatribe from the bowels of web 2.0 again like it has been for most of the playoffs this year. One iffy Bowen play against the Blazers though and he's completely off the reservation.

    The computer doesn't lie. My predictions were right--it's the results that were wrong, mere aberrations in the model.

    Well, it's tough to fault someone who correctly picked that the series would go 7 and picked the home team to win game 7, and there were a lot of guys who blew that Suns series pick pretty bad. I just picture them spitting out their drinks in shock as the Spurs picked apart Shaq. "What did Mike Breen just call that? A...pick and...roll? you Pop and your damn gimmicky offense!"

    I actually enjoy Hollinger's articles. It's amazing to see the lengths he'll go in his research to find something to prove his point, but there are times when I wonder if he would even recognize a basketball.

    No, my brain is fine, just as long as I stay out of direct sunlight and always have my puffer handy when I get too excited.

    Actually I like Adande. He may not be right all the time, but he digs for stories and seems to be pretty competent when his opinion is asked about most things.

    o,
    According to my statistical analysis based on a work published in my book "Expert in sport by the numbers" (29$ on amazon), Sheridan only have a 23.7% chance to pick the winner of a series correctly 3 time in a row after picking the first two correctly.
    Best regards,
    John Hollinger
    Awesome!

    Why would Spurs fans bump a thread that makes them look like idiots?
