Show Notes
I’m a fan of Neil Paine’s data driven sports Substack and you should be too. Neil’s got a gift for finding sports mysteries and probing deeper. This conversation went so many places and I could have kept it going hours longer but for the hard out.
Topics include but aren’t limited to…
* The data driven case for Caitlin Clark getting left off Team USA
* If Clark’s teammates are consistently dropping the passes, are the turnovers her fault?
* Differences between the WNBA and NBA
* Was Tim Duncan underrated?
* Should NFL player stats be more respected by NFL analysts?
* A sneaky reason for why Tom Brady is the GOAT
* Will announcer Brady teach us about his greatness?
* Why can’t teams beat the NFL Draft?
* Do we actually know beforehand when an NBA Draft is a “weak draft”?
* Does MLB showing us “catch probability” undermine our enjoyment?
* Why can’t Canadian teams win a Stanley Cup?
* Are some great players actually chokers?
