The limits of statistical analysis in a short season are evident ...
Clearly, the numbers say the Sky are the worst team in the league, yet they are 8-10. If the statistical trends held, and it was an 82-game schedule, I think Chicago would seek its level -- but even so, it's reasonable to expect luck to even out and the Sky to fall out of the playoff hunt soon.

Thoroughly naive and fairly ridiculous thing to say. The most basic 'statistical analysis' would be 'what's their record with Fowles in the lineup?'. That gives you the rather important statistic of 8-5. With her in the lineup, they're at least mediocre, which gets you reasonably comfortably in the playoffs in the East. If she gets hurt again, they're screwed.
Falling out of the playoffs hunt would also require Atlanta, New York or Detroit to win a whole bunch of games sometime soon as well. Along with Washington continuing to win a few. Good luck seeing those scenarios.

I would say it might be better phrased "the limits of win-loss record in a short season are evident ...".
Even with Fowles, the Sky has been outscored by 43 points, or about three a night. There's just no way you can sustain an above-.500 record with that kind of point differential over the long term. The Monarchs have more double-figure wins (two) than Chicago (one) -- think about that.

The Sky are supposed to win 27.3% of their games for the season, according to the Pythagorean projections. That's 9 games. They've already won 10 and they're just getting into their rhythm!
The formula penalizes teams much too much for blowout losses. The Sky lost by about 30 points in Connecticut back in June. That threw way off their average margin of victory and because of that one game their whole season is distorted statistically by the Hollinger rankings.

), but I do wonder why the Sun are above the Fever. Both teams are last and second to last in schedule strength and the Fever are higher in both pythagorean projection and point differential. Admittedly, only a paltry .3 difference between the Sun and the Fever, but it's interesting.
