>In his book, The Success Equation, Michael Mauboussin places sports on the skill-luck continuum by using a statistical technique earlier demonstrated by sports data analysts. He found that season standings for the NBA reflect skill levels more so than the seasons of other major team sports, with NHL hockey being the sport closest to the luck side of the continuum. In this video we explore the characteristics of the sports that either enhance or diminish the influence of luck on the results, and we'll walk through the method for calculating the contribution of luck.

Apehoop was literally explained to be a height biased boring sport. Literally the tallest players are all the 'most skilled'. Shorter players with equal ability are 'less skilled'.
That and you can literally have one guy hold the ball every possession and is the least team dependent 'team sport'.

That's why it makes it so boring.
i.e. Golden State winning this year, because they have many excellent players against a team with only 1 excellent player. Plus NBA wants to make a best of 7 so the odds of the best team losing are even smaller.
There are no surprise in this sport, that's why it sucks.

hockey is too chaotic, basketball not chaotic enough, already knew that thanks
also I'm pretty sure something like swimming and sprinting is more skill than chess, luck plays a decent role in chess whether you're white or black

Being freakishly tall isn't a skill multiplier, it's a skill divider. Most tall motherfuckers run like IRL QWOP.

NBA is full of fucking tall cunts who aren't very skilled.
If you're not very tall you have to be super skilled just to stay in the NBA.

>swimming and sprinting is more skill than chess
No it isnt. Those just require you to be genetically blessed with superior muscles. Usain Bolt's running technique isnt any better than other runners, he just happens to have a very rare type of muscle fiber. No matter how much you tried, no matter how perfect you nailed a sprinting stride/motion, you will never match up to the guy who's muscles are genetically above everyone elses.
