I know I may be sounding like a jerk, but as someone who works on the picking list for my team, I would be pretty upset if I worked hard and scouted every match only to be second guessed by someone who likely didn't see any matches. OPR, ETC and various metrics are nice, but there is NO SUBSTITUTE for actually watching matches and seeing how good teams are.

This is the absolute truth.
The data is a nice to know and cool to know, but it doesnt change how I go about selecting alliance partners, if I'm in the top 8.
In fact, I know who I'd pick this weekend in HI if I had the #1 pick, even before watching any matches at all.
