** College Basketball Opening Week Megathread: 11/4-11/10 **
Poast new message in this thread
Date: November 3rd, 2024 11:14 PM Author: Floppy Elastic Band Fellow sportsball fags, lets gather ITT over the week to discuss the opening week of college basketball.
I'm looking forward to:
1- Cooper Flagg's much-hyped college debut. At long last Maine has produced a generational basketball player. He's WHITE! Hah. 2- xo Rick Pitino rebuilding St. John's roster- I have confidence in him as a coach; will we get more hilarious kooky comments if they struggle out of the gate? stay tuned 3- Seeing how Kentucky will look with an entirely new roster and new coach for the first time in their school's history 4- Something something Alabama offensive powerhouse something something 3 pointers lets runnnnnnn 5- Will Dan Hurley's wife keep his * checks notes * dirty dragon underwear clean for him all season long? She's the real mvp of that program
If there are any basketball gamblefags here that want to speak up, raise your degenerate hands and lets chat.
Also: is anyone here really into KenPom? ("KenPom's rankings are a fraud!")

Date: November 4th, 2024 2:57 PM Author: Floppy Elastic Band I'm actually curious about that. How exactly does he calculate/what does he consider "luck"? Is it shit like heaves from halfcourt with 2 seconds left? Or what? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5624245&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310864",#48281322) |

Date: November 4th, 2024 3:24 PM Author: odious ocher business firm it's a legit stat to consider
Luck rating (Luck): KenPom defines this as a measure of the deviation between a team’s actual winning percentage and what one would expect from its game-by-game efficiencies. Essentially, a team involved in a lot of close games should not win (or lose) all of them. Those that do will be viewed as lucky (or unlucky).
(If you’re a baseball stats nerd, think of this as a college basketball variation of the Pythagorean record, which assumes every team should go .500 in one-run games and measures luck as how reality varies from that assumption.)

Date: November 4th, 2024 3:43 PM Author: Floppy Elastic Band oh, i completely understand that its a legit thing to consider. just wanted clarification about what they consider to be "luck". ie is he taking specific in-game occurences into consideration (ie jump ball, making free throws at end of game, hitting a logo shot at the buzzer to win, etc) or is it just "this is what we predict you should be doing based on your stats and here is your variance"
ty for link, i'll check it out. this is my first season following college basketball closely in quite a few years, so i'm just familiarizing myself with teh faggot stats guys |

Duke is going to be tough to beat this year. Knipple (however the fuck you spell it) is a an excellent shooter, Malauch is a beastly presence in the paint, and their guards look strong too. |
