If you make enough predictions, then you are bound to get one right. If you forget all of the wrong ones, then you'll have a perfect prediction record.

Let's see if a real world example will maybe help you see it better.

You got 5 friends. Someone says pick the favourite beer of these 5 friends if they all pick their fave which one will win out.

You will be able to pick the beer with confidence. Bc you know how your friends feel about different beers.

Then all of a sudden 3 of your friends are swapped out with three people you don't know. Now your ability to pick that favourite beer of that group is diminished big time.

You weren't wrong when you picked the beer the original 5 would pick. You just had no way of knowing that 3 of your buds would be removed from the group.

Then lost it when he got greedy 25 AND 35 games into the season when decided it was going to be 60+ wins.


Aw shite please tell me this boy didn't renege on that prediction mid-season and went with the 60 game pipe dream again after failing spectacularly the year before

Great. Then 35 games into the season, coming off 14 wins in 16 games, you couldn't resist it and account for some natural regression to the mean. Nope. You had to go with 60 plus wins.

But of course, you're so objective because if anything you underestimated them at one time; just forget your overestimation later on.

Hey things change Bubba. We can only control what we can control. We can't control the MVP vote. We only call it like we see it. We didn't know that there would be such massive turnover in the voters. Kinda takes what happened in the prior votes and throws it out the window. We didn't foresee that. Anytime we make a prediction it comes with the unspoken caveat 'barring unforeseen circumstances'. To call this unforeseen is understating it.

This is the Boomiest post of all fricking time

Way to answer the question. And does it matter if the voters change? Media all thinks the same way anyways. Only local guys have bias

60 Wins was attainable. CC had the third seed locked up before the allstar break. Don't think any team came within 3 games of them. If they had more to play for 60 wouldn't have been a problem.

So why would you say you had the pulse of the voters if you didn't even know who the voters were?

Whose pulse did you have?

How did you have no way of knowing when you had this pulse just a few weeks ago?

60+ wins is more of an AC thing than a cc thing.

No. a lot of the old timer team announcers that had votes and favoured wins more heavily have been replaced or just outright lost their vote. We Now giving votes to int'l media who is much much more likely to get caught up in the ESPN driven narratives.

We assumed no major changes in voters. this is the biggest change in one year ever that I can see.
