Skill and competency are an obvious necessity and prior given to getting here. But they are also a relative constant - we know going in to each game what any player's skill set is. What changes from day to day is confidence (along with health, etc).
You are making it sound like skill and competency result in streakinees, as in a person is competent for 10 games and then become incompetent for a stretch. No. They have a prior skillset, but confidence fluctuates.
