They conducted this test on the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team.
The results contradicted the “hot hand” view. When a player made his last
shot, he was less likely to make his next; when he missed his previous
attempt, he was more likely to make his next. This was true even for Andrew
Toney, a player with the reputation for being a streak shooter. Does this
mean we should be talking of the “strobe hand,” like the strobe light that
alternates between on and off?
