If the season ended today with lakers and pels both out of the playoffs

I didnt say the hypothetical was likely, but the hypothetical was that we both lost the play in. I wouldnt say my posted odds are “incorrect” just because you think that either us or the lakers would beat the Twolves or Clippers. I posted a statistical fact, and you brought opinion into it and said you were right. Doesnt make sense

Agreed. The mathematical probability doesn’t change just because you believe a certain outcome is more likely.

You might argue the statistic is misleading when looking at the context, but to say it’s incorrect is…well incorrect.

And I somehow misread your post and didn't see that you were allowing for the hypothetical that both us and the Lakers miss the play-in.

My bad.
