It's interesting watching people tie themselves up in knots because they can't make sense of reality versus the predictions of metrics that don't correlate to wins. Lambert is working hard to make the data fit a rule that is inaccurate.

Arguably, one of the easier "possession" sports to track is soccer since the ball is not turned over as readily as the puck in hockey. Over the last 5 years, the team with the greatest possession in an English Premier League game has won ~50% of the games.
