Nah, you're implying a rationale I never used or made. For the record, I think anyone could tell you that a sample size of 2 wouldn't make sense but taking the average of a sample size of 30 is a different conversation.

I said that over 30 years we've been the most mediocre team. I think the best way to show that is by deviation from a statistical mean. Our statistical mean is out of playoffs, but in 14/30 seasons we've only deviated by 6 points from the mean. 3 games.

We've only had over 96 points or equivalent in 9 seasons over the last 30.
