also, why not use the current pinny moneylines to estimate the next game?

Because I set up the spreadsheet last week, and I already had the cells set to calculate spreads for this week. It was easier to use those numbers than go through and put in moneylines for all this week's games.

Plus it gives consistency. As long as I'm using Sagarin for future weeks, I might as well use him for this week too. Either you disregard it because you don't trust Sagarin (entirely valid, I *did* say to take these numbers with a large grain of salt), or you don't, but if you're giving these numbers credence, you might as well go all the way and see what Sagarin predicts for this week too.
