Statistics are like bikinis snd the Trail Blazers

Okay there is the regression back to the mean. Most people have the Rockets pulling an LA Clipper and besting the Blazers handily tomorrow. In a non statistical sense you can sense they and their fan base will be desperate. This is much like the Phoenix Suns a few weeks  ago. Remember that debacle of epic proportion. Then again statistically, all things being equal, in a mostly even series take the home team.

I also heard another analogy that is more reflective when trying to search for my own non relevant blog. Statistics are like miniskirts. I am sure it masked betting on the spread more emotional.

So in this case, like a miniskirt, there is some emotion involved. The Trailblazers are more like a beautiful woman wearing a sun dress on s nudist beach. Sorry that is s misplaced metaphor.

Expect the unexpected with this years Blazers.

And still be uncomfortable up two games to zero going home.

As an aside, Batum should have a big game tomorrow.

Throw the statistics out the window.
