You were actually 6/11 yesterday, which would make you 822/1212 on the season. :)

Thankyou Lakers and Popovich sitting out the Big 3. Toying with whether I should wait for you to make your picks for the final day first.

I need 10/15 tomorrow to make 70% on the season. I have a feeling some of the picks are going to get screwed up by teams sitting players to rest them for the Playoffs/because they're out of the Playoffs but I'll stick with them.

I'm going to try something different when we do this next season. I'm going to base every single pick on the team's current win-loss record, not taking injuries or transactions into account. Just as an awesome, wicked fun experiment that removes the guesswork and emotion from the game.

Anyway, here goes something:

3/3 for the day

825/1215 for the season

April 13th

New York @ Boston
Miami @ Toronto
Denver @ Utah
Milwaukee @ Oklahoma City
Detroit @ Philadelphia
Indiana @ Orlando
Houston @ Minnesota
New Orleans @ Dallas
Washington @ Cleveland
New Jersey @ Chicago
Atlanta @ Charlotte
Memphis @ LA Clippers
Portland @ Golden State
San Antonio @ Phoenix
LA Lakers @ Sacramento

Straight up win-loss record or are you going to look at their record on the road and at home as well?

Straight-up win-loss record, home and road records will come into account when i need a tie-breaker.

It should be. On opening night, I'm going to use this season's W-L record, which should fuck up the season completely. :wink:

A bit easier when you haven't turned in picks for over 100 of the games so far. There's also been days where you haven't counted games that you didn't predict in time, whereas the rest of us have counted them as a wrong prediction.

Martti just took over 2nd place with 4 games still to be completed. If Memphis wins, we'll tie for 2nd. This is the real competition. Fuck the playoffs. Fuck MVP. It all comes down to this.

I've got eight of the fifteen so far, with four left to be decided as of this post. 70% is still within reach.
