    where:
    x = sample of lebron jumpshot in 7 year career
    n = number_sample
    M = Media Trolls
    N = Espn Sycophants
    Hypergeometric Distribution is used in sampling without replacement from a finite population.

    Example:

    A sample of lebron field goals contains 20 jumpers. Six shots are makes, and the remaining 12 are bricks. If a person selects 4 jumpers at random, the following function returns the probability that exactly 1 shot is a make.

    Correction to your math
    P(1 shot) = (6c1)(14c3)/(20c4)
    Assuming that P(Make) = P(Miss) = 0.5

    Also fail math is fail
    Hypergeometric is not suitable for this situation; Binomial works just fine.
