ToC projection update:
With a projected 75 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 250,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 3.6035 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.2823).
An average of 5.0412 4+-time champions (standard deviation 1.5703).

An early cutoff took place 23.341% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).

Tim Kutz qualified 45.795% of the time.
Todd Giese qualified 11.475% of the time.
Rob Liguori qualified 1.952% of the time.
Fred Vaughn qualified 0.331% of the time.

(Note: Due to the possibility of a WGA strike, I feel that it is more accurate for ToC projections to add 20 games to the end of the previous projected qualifying period.)

Alan Lin’s next game: May 1

Next Week: Season 33, Week 34
