@VLF...
Sorry to say but a few scores are off... A few just a bit, but a couple way off....Mine being the one most off.
You gave Triangle offense 22 points in round 2, while it looks like his total was 15. So instead of 54 points in total I see the total at 47.
W_Lakers4life_w 23 points in round 2, while I see 22 points for him. So he is at 51 points, instead of 52 you have him for.
I bleed P&G 21 points in the 2nd round, while I see 14 points.So his total is actually at 40 instead of the 47 you have him for.
All star laker 24 you gave him 23 points in round 2, while I see him at 14, His total I see at 38, instead of 47 you have him for.
Chronicle I see you gave him 21 points, while I see he got 0 points. His total I see at 7, instead of 28 you have him for.
And then comes my totals...Instead of giving me any points, I see I am the one that did not get any extra points, or the ones I actually earned...
I got 21 points in Round 2, instead of the 0 You have me for. So my total is actually at 52 points, instead of the 31 you have me for.
Not trying to step on anyone's toes here, just calling out what I see in all fairness, correct me if I am wrong. Thanks. |

Standings updated after the Conference Finals. I double checked the numbers and eliminated some negatives and fixed a formula problem, so this is accurate. 15 people picked Golden State while one picked Cleveland. That one was me, and even if I hit it perfectly, I can't win. Good luck.
Player Score
Triangle_Offense 77
W_lakers4life_W 75
All_Star_Laker 72

AT VLF
Sorry to say,but... Top scorers on that list are off by a little. You gave them a bit more. As for mine? Well as always I got less, way less... I thought you liked me? 
May I ask? What kind of formula problem? It is simple subtraction and addition. I have been short changed throughout, my bad luck, but still, keeping to all fairness for all, including myself I wanted to address this once again.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
All-star laker is at 61 I believe, you gave him 72.
W_Lakers4life_W is at 74 I believe, you gave him 75
Triangle offense you gave him 77, but he is at 71 I believe.
Even Chronicle is at 28 while he actually has 7 (Sorry Chronicle  )
Not trying to step on toes here, just observed this after I noticed my scores were off, and doing this in all fairnes, please let me know if I am incorrect.
As for me....
You gave me 55 points, but I have 76 points. I had 52 points after round 2, and just received 24 points in round 3, for a total of 76 points!
------------------------------------------------------------
MY Predictions...
Cleveland vs Detroit: CAVS in 4
Toronto vs Indy: Toronto in 5
Miami vs Charlotte: Miami in 6
Atlanta vs Boston: Hawks in 6
GS vs Houston: Warriors in 4
Spurs vs Memphis: Spurs in 4
OKC vs Dallas: OKC in 5
LAC vs Portland: Clips in 5
------------------------------------------------------------
Cleveland vs Atlanta: Cavs in 5
Toronto vs Miami: Toronto in 6
GSW vs LAC: GSW in 6
Spurs vs OKC: Spurs in 6
------------------------------------------------------------
Cleveland vs Toronto: Cavs in 6
GSW vs Spurs: GSW in 7
-------------------------------------------------------------
Cleveland vs GSW: GSW in 6
Thank you. |

Round 1 - 29
Round 2 - 22
Round 3 - 23
Thanks!

I believe that I should have had 23 points for round 3, as I had the Cavs in 6 (for the full 12 points) and the Warriors in 6 (12 minus 1 for 11 points).
That should give me 65 points total. I'm not going to win but still, you know, in the interest of performance and everything.  |

Actually, now that I look at the scores of the top 5 or 6. Freak of nature has this thing virtually locked up. (I could be wrong, but I can't find a scenario were someone could overtake him) At best, all I can do is get within 2 points, and Math can't make up any ground in the Finals.
Congrats Freak. I knew my chances were slim to none after Miami lost game 7 to the Raps (I picked Miami in 7) |

Yeah all in good fun
I checked the scores carefully again and i agree with your score of 76 points!
Anyway, I also have 76 points
Everything you wrote was correct, except the OKC score in Round 1. I had OKC in 5 so that gives me 5 points instead of 4. So my overall score is also 76 instead of 75
I dont know if anyone else can still catch us...but if not, we are Co-Champions  I can live with that, congrats, bro!

OH MY! You are 100% correct, I apologize for the oversight, it is 5 points for OKC in the 1st round.
It is 76 points each. I can live with co champ too, and had fun which is the most important thing, being competitive and being involved and cheering while following the playoffs is fun.
Congrats to you too, we both had some luck, and some opposite choices, which took us down two separate roads for a bit. But ended up knotted up for a co win. I started out hoping to be in the top quarter of the pack, so co champ is real cool. Take care cya around the boards. And congrats again. |

I am out of town tomorrow, I will total everything up later. But I will add that I was the only one to pick the Cavs. Not that it helped me much.
