If you are going to be condescending, at least take the time to understand what is being discussed first. I wasn't talking about predictions but of the absurdity of arguing the standings are incorrect when determining who the better team has been.
But, to your comment - the only thing statistics are capable of doing is commenting on previous events. Any prediction of the future is based entirely on our interpretation of the past, as determined by those statistics.
