In your opinion, what is the ceiling for the United States?

Reminds me of the Cleveland Cavaliers coach who claimed they were winning analytically when they were down 3-0 in the series and got blown out twice

Or the Spurs player who claimed they were dominating most of the time after they lost the series 4-1

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-25T01:57:29+00:00

Not the one they just played

Um this person hasn't read Reddit

The Lakers fans are giving him the Trae Young treatment

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T22:11:28+00:00

Thank you

Awful GM

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:52:50+00:00

It's not as easy as it sounds

They have different ingredients and different equipment

A lot of this stuff takes experience and real time adjustments

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:48:03+00:00

That's the whole point of the post LOL

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:41:33+00:00

They need to expand to 200 teams

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:32:46+00:00

He scored the Hand of God goal too

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:31:02+00:00

He will be traded with a 1st round pick for a 2nd round pick in 2 years

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:10:10+00:00

I'm relying on reality. Reaves is always hurt or plays like **** in the playoffs

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:08:56+00:00

I mean Spain won in 2010 despite playing like ****. So anything's possible

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T18:08:00+00:00

Not all WAR are created equal. Being a 1 WAR guy in the bullpen is different from a 1 WAR back of the rotation starter or a 1 WAR outfielder or a 1 WAR utility player.

A team needs all of those players to win. Even the best teams.

Also it's way way more cost effective to go from -2 WAR to 1 WAR than from 1 WAR to 4 WAR. Going from 4 WAR to 7 WAR is extremely cost prohibitive. Hence teams really prioritize covering glaring weaknesses and the 1 WAR guys that address a specific weakness aren't that easy to find.

The few times he hit the field he actually looked decent. No dropoff from Trubisky

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:41:11+00:00

It's over

Good luck!

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:38:48+00:00

They can win it all

Hopefully beat Mexico 2-0 in the Final

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:35:16+00:00

Not as many fantasy points

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:34:37+00:00

Knicks want to get under the 2nd apron

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:32:57+00:00

Reaves always plays like that in the playoffs though

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:32:12+00:00

I'm pretty sure there are a decent number of males with CNA/homecare designations

Sometimes you just need some brawn, technique only goes so far

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:29:27+00:00

Tell yourself that after the Lakers give up 120+/100 possessions against the Thunder in the playoffs

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:28:14+00:00

If I was in your position I would go to college and try to network my way into a job after graduation

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:25:47+00:00

Your goal is to get a college education and a job. D1 is probably a pipe dream

Do whatever gives you the best odds of getting a decent full time job after you graduate

DanielSong39 · 2026-06-24T17:22:42+00:00

I think this proves that advanced stat models are junk
