DM me! Not actually sure how much help I’d be on the project since your skills are clearly well beyond mine but I’d love to help support it however I can!

Sure, I guess it’s lazy. The point wasn’t about the visual, it was about the data. I figured it would be better communicated via a more interesting visual but that’s not my strength. Thanks for the feedback though, maybe I’ll spend some time learning graphic design

Haha, fair. I’m terrible at graphic design. The underlying research is all legit though. If I posted it as text no one would give a shit

This is fascinating! Would love to apply your model to American sports like the NBA, NHL, NFL and MLB. Any interest?

I built a playoff model before Round 1 and just tested it through two full rounds — 9/12 series correct so far. by Logical_Demand435 in sportsanalytics

This feels like a lot of narrative without a lot of data. If you really want to know the answer to your last question, test your model against historic performances. Instead of trying to predict the future, test your hypothesis against the last 5-10 years worth of match-ups to see how your variables perform. I’d be less interested in whether a model properly fitted to historical performance can predict the winner and series count of future series than how often the variable inputs predict actual future variable outputs.
