Pick and probability after unlock
How do I read these numbers?
  • Verdict probability: the chief's final chance for this pick after weighing every analyst.
  • Market implied: the probability behind the market consensus odds with the margin removed — what the market thinks.
  • Edge: verdict probability minus market implied; a positive number means we rate the pick higher than the market does.
  • Evidence grade (1–5 stars): computed by code from the gap, agreement with the model, the verified share of the factor ledger and data completeness, not a hit rate — four stars does not mean it lands eight times in ten.
  • Tier: enough edge and evidence grade make a Strong pick, then Lean, otherwise Pass; score and goal-band calls only carry probabilities, with no stars or tier.

Analyst views

Summary

The Knicks have posted a defensive efficiency of 105.1 and a net rating of 5.7 over their last 10 games, compared with 116.4 and -5.3 for the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers, however, recently won 119-95 at home, and both teams' metrics include games from prior seasons, leaving the home team receiving 4.5 points at neutral. The 223.5-point total is affected in opposite directions by both teams' pace figures of 98.9 and 97.8, the Knicks' defense, and Cleveland's higher points allowed, so the over/under also remains neutral.
