37 and Unwanted: Math Says No

So the market says ‘no’ to Veteran X? Funny — his agent’s phone has been colder than a frozen rim since July.

My models show that once you hit 37, your PER drops faster than your trade value. Teams aren’t heartless — they’re just running Monte Carlo simulations on your injury risk (spoiler: it’s higher than your chance of making a three in Game 7).

The Rockets aren’t ignoring him — they’re optimizing for cap space and two-way hustle. Sorry, Coach Killer — you’re now just a negative ROI.

Thunder’s youth movement proves it: cheaper, hungrier, and statistically more valuable.

Data doesn’t lie — but it does judge harshly.

J-Dub’s Turn?

Let’s be real: if Shai isn’t dropping 25+ on Game 6, the math says we’re all just watching a rerun of last year’s panic.

Bench = MVP?

Cason Wallace scoring 11 points? Aaron Wiggins hitting three triples? That’s not luck—that’s my model saying ‘buckle up.’

The Math Never Lies… But Pressure Does.

So yeah—make it rain from deep, break their traps with staggered screens, and let the bench bring the noise.

Or just pray Haliburton wakes up healthy. (Spoiler: he won’t.)

What do you think—the Thunder win or we’re back to Game 7 drama?

Comment your prediction. I’ll run it through the algorithm… and yes, I do have the code.
