You played the game at many levels. I played intramurals and city rec. You have a lot more credibility than I do. I will say, even if I didn't make it very clear, that I was talking multiple seasons, taking a lot of the chance out of it.I would disagree with that. My senior year in HS, we were 3-16. If you took out one game (20+ point loss) every other game was decided by 8 points or less. There were only 2 seniors on that team, myself and a guard. Two of the teams in the EIHC qualified for the state tournament that year. The next year, the team went 15-5; no teams qualified for the state tournament. Sometimes, it's who you play.
I saw the Settles,-Murray-Kingsbury-Woolridge Hawkeyes lose three consecutive one point games one year. UNLV once lost four at the buzzer in one season. In a one season sample size, it's easier for other variables to come into play.
