We can't hold on to leads in big games!

[Zack M]

this is the third time this month that we've led by double digits and ended up losing..

-led Trailblazers by 13 points in the 4th quarter....and lost.
-Led Bulls by 10 points in the 4th quarter......and lost
-Led Mavs by 15 points in the 3rd quarter.......and lost.


had we won those 3 games,we would've been over the hills in the playoff race....hell,we would have had 40 wins and just 4 wins short of 3rd place.

dissapointing.

No NBA team holds big leads. There isn't enough separation between NBA teams for there to be a significant number of blowouts. Basically, large leads are noise in the data and there is always a regression to the mean. Also, somebody posted a pretty good analysis of how teams play from behind and it was pretty eye opening. I think that The 76ers played significantly better from behind than the Warriors did from in front.
