Basing Ray Talbout's, Pittsburgh Phil's, Andy Beyer's. or ANYONE'S abilities on a single contest means NOTHING.
Say I am living in Belgium and I pay to see Alan Iverson play basketball in an exhibition game in Paris. I have read about him, know his abilities and style of play, but when I SAW him he was lackluster. Am I to conclude all the accolade about him are false or was he just regressing to the mean as all players do at times? SAMPLE ERROR abounds in life and sports. NO ONE is correct even half of the time.
Judge someone in the long term......
