The real point of the thread is where we would be at by the trade deadline. I think people can make up whatever they want about the GS game. Personally I think there was an 80% chance we won that game. So I think 12-7 is the closest. If you guessed 11-8 you can pretend we would have lost that game and still pat yourself on the back.
Kind of crazy we outplayed 90% of everyone's expectations, but it still kind of feels like we didn't play that well.
I would say that on average we played great... we just achieved that in a very bipolar kind of way.This.
Clarkson has been a huge slump. Its seems Sexton has went from playing like an all star to just an ok player lately. I feel like simone has been in a big time slump (i will check the data on this in a minute). Even Lauri had a couple of recent stinkers. Yet here we are exceeding expectations anyways.
If Clarkson didnt hit that trade rumor wall in the middle of this stretch (or whatever made him regress to his early season form), I think we may have ended up way better than 11-7. But we also turned some schedule losses into wins at the beginning of this stretch.
