The Warriors will still win the series against the Rockets

I still think the Warriors are going to win the series, but it's not because of a lack of analytics.

The Warriors defeated the Rockets in 7 games to advance to the NBA Finals.

I think Kevin Durant is the one guy I would want to take a shot when your team needs two points. Just two points to put into overtime.

A 24-team College Football Playoff is starting to make sense

I'm starting to grow on it. My problem is, I'm thinking about it in just this year where we actually had parity.

This is a subjective opinion about playoff format and cannot be definitively judged.
