Message: [QUOTE="uh-no, post: 4886351, member: 12993"] efficiency systems, such as NET, KP, whatever, almost ALWAYS devalue [LIST] [*]points margins past a certain gap. There's no predictive value of a 30 vs 40 point win. [*]games between teams with large disparities. Uconn beating depaul should mean not a whole lot in the metrics since they are so differently rated. (now if defaul played CLOSER to uconn thn expected, it would) [/LIST] So in the end, people are far overstating how much uconn's results against "really bad" teams have mattered. Far more impactful are things like: [LIST] [*]getting trounced by SHU [*]only beating st john's by 4...at home [*]only beating xavier by 5 [*]only beating providence by 9 [*]only beating butler by 9 [/LIST] It's not that those are bad wins/margins....but those are the places uconn could have done better to be atop NET.....not beating depaul by 50 instead of 40 [/QUOTE]
