    Hmmmm...stick Thunder 96, Spurs 95 in your simulator. :p


    Interesting to see how the odds stack up now that the Spurs have come back to the pack.

    ==================================================

    I changed things around a bit and included the Eastern conference. I also tweaked my win probability function a tiny bit. The Spurs loss increased our odds of getting the division and getting to second or third and bumped up our home court probability slightly. I would have liked to have seen the Hornets lose as that would have helped us a tiny bit too. Also, the Jazz are now the third most probable team that we'll meet in the first round as opposed to the second.

    Please enjoy and give me feedback on any additional stats that might be interesting.

    Thanks BigBigRed, I am enjoying looking at your number crunching... can't wait to see what last night's results do... having Utah and Spurs lose.

    Um, those numbers were from last nights action. Notice now Denver has a 50% chance to get the 2 spot.

    Really nice work, Big Big Red. I'll be obsessively lurking this thread for the rest of the season. Great stuff.

    Yea, me2, as well as the Magic No.'s Thread. I really appreciate both threads.
    I am so hoping that we get the #2 seed. To me, it it more important to have home court in the 1st 2 rounds, thus avoiding LA 'til WCF, than it is to avoid UTH.
    So, Best Case Scenario [BCS from here on out], we get the 2 (or 3) seed and are in the 2, 3, 6 & 7 bracket with any of the following; NOH, POR, DAL & DEN (I don't care who our 1st_R_Matchup is, but keep in mind that this is 1 man's BCS POV) . That means my BCS is to have LAL, SAS & UTH in the 1, 4, 5 & 8 bracket. So Worst Case Scenario [WCS], our 1st_R_Matchup is UTH & our 2nd_R_Matchup is LAL.
    I know UTH hasn't been playing well, but if they could beat DEN tomorrow night in DEN, that would be huge 4us, IMO.

    Oh, last thing - I do not fear UTH. Part of me would like to see us put them to rest finally and I know that we could, but, either way it would take a lot out of any opponent to grind out a series w/UTH, and we need all of the help that we can get.

    Then again, in those championship years, we beat UTH. Hummm. I guess I won't worry anymore. Leave it to the hands of fate.

    Despite the epiphany, I'll still be obsessively checking both threads 'til the end of the reg season.

    I don't think anyone fears Utah, but if we had a choice, they would be the last one. Since the most plausable scenerio involving Utah is us getting the #2 seed and them getting the #7 seed. That means we beat some good teams down the stretch and they lost to some good teams down the stretch. You have to think our chance of beating them are pretty good.

    We'd have the "underdog" status because critics are going to look at the past 2 years and determine Utah to be the favorite to win.

    And you have to admit, it would be kind of nice to get that monkey off our back if/when we beat them in the 1st round.

    Have you explained exactly where you get your numbers anywhere? I'd like to know.
