predictability is something of anticipation and with a little math and probability could already gives us an idea of what things to come.
i agree with you even playing agianst a power house team but if donaghy was officiating it and you pay him 500k surely the game will be different.
but even with predictability i do believe in adjusting and exploiting weaknesses.
=================================================
you said " it just should not be so easy that anyone can clearly see if the PR man they want will win back the money they spend (and more) or not."
and
"since I realy don't like the idea of me being able to calculate who will win next game for sure. I want to have a clue of who has the best chances, but this doesn't mean he will win..."
to me this are 2 things
getting results from a man who works in an environment he is in control of and not in control of.
what can he ask more, my team is of the top, winning history, i may not have the best individual players but as a team they rock!, big arena! what does he need more and im in the highest division class
in basketball playing the game needs to assess the skill of the opponent, how well you are prepared, your players skill and how the game will go such as fouls , injurt etc.
im talking about one man's work which he has control of his environment! that is all! how much calculation needed to see one man fruit of labor.
oh oh as i said im not hoping a sudden increase but a gradual thing, but all i see now is the work of my guy seems to struggle with outcomes needed to be seen.
==================================================
there are times just to have good showing, some nba teams even tends to give away tickets especially against ahh bad teams.
while the PR guy device ways of making like package promo, like buy 4 games tickets for how much. yes he will call first the season ticket holders but i do believe a lot of these people already bought em before the season started.
he has to work on getting more people to come to games, or probably run publicity thing to entice and make the city feel good abotu the team and get more support!
