Okay, so I decided to put my money where my mouth is and actually try to predict the Knicks-Cavs game. Here’s how it all went down, step-by-step.
First, I needed data
So, I start with the most basic approach. I’m no stats wizard, so I just wanted to get the basic first.
- Look at recent games I went to check the game history to see the Knicks and Cavs recent performance. Find the recent games the Knicks and Cavs played.
- Head to head: I need to know the two teams games history.
Time to crunch some numbers (sort of)
I’m not gonna lie, my “analysis” was pretty basic:
- Win/Loss Ratios. I checked what was the winning rate of each team.
- Points For and Against.I Simply checked out the average points each team scored and allowed per game.
Making My Prediction
Based on my (very) limited analysis, I made my guess. It felt like a coin flip, to be honest.
I think the Knicks gonna to win this game!
It’s more about having some fun than being a pro gambler.
