This is what I get for picking Houston two years in a row. I hate the Warriors, but I despise the Rockets. Bunch of crybabies. It serves them right (losing Game 2) for complaining about the Game 1 officiating ad nauseum.

First time participant here, so I have to ask. How do you tally the scores from the conference semis? 8 points for a perfect prediction, and you subtract points if the series lasted a different amount of games? What happens if somebody missed one of the first round winners and consequently one of the conference semis matchups is all wrong? Take me for example: I had 28 points after the first round and perfectly predicted three of the four semis. But I totally blew the last one (Blazers vs. Nuggets), because I predicted the Thunder (not the Blazers) would face the Nuggets and beat them in 7. So I got 8+8+8 and -8 for the semis?

(I'm not THAT competitive, just curious )

No, you would get 8+8+8+0.

I'm not going to win because I had the Rockets beating the Warriors, but I think my score is way off, if I have the scoring system right. I think I should have 54 points.

Yes, you're correct.

And I should have 52 then? 28 for the first round and 24 for the semis (3 totally correct and one totally wrong).

I finally had time to look at this thing and found some zeros that shouldn't have been there. I went over it twice so this should be accurate through last night. Obviously the Toronto-Milwaukee winner isn't included, but the Warriors are.

diando 64
CandyCanes 63
FreakofNature 61
Nobody 61
The Lebrons 59
VLF 57
LakerSD 56
ChickenStu 54
Username 53
quartzcharm 50
I Bleed P&G 48
Chronicle 41
adkindo 40


Two had Houston winning, 10 have Golden State and one has the Bucks.

It's my first time being in the lead ever, so I'll cherish this.

^If this is accurate, then it's over. No one chose the Raptors to win the chip and the point difference is too great for anyone to catch VLF.

Welp, the Raptors carried me to a 2nd place finish.

True, no one picked Toronto. Does anyone remember the odds of them winning at the beginning of the playoffs? I should include that next year.
