    Anyone in for an NBA Playoff Prediction BIF? I'm thinking everyone put up a minimum of 44oz, 93+ rated beer.

    Scoring will work as follows:
    First round winner: +2pt
    Second round: +3pt
    Conference final: +4pt
    Champion: +5pt
    Correct number of games in series: +1pt
    Also, some bonus points for leading scorer, rebounder, Finals MVP, etc (see below)

    I haven't found a website like ESPN/Yahoo where we can all fill out brackets, so I'll do this manually.

    Will go forward if we have at least 12 entries. Just sign up in the thread or BM me. Please fill out the following and BM me with it, I'll put all in a spreadsheet to share. Entries due by 11:30am CST April 18.

    I am working on a Google form, if you would like to fill in your answers that way. Will provide a link when its ready.

    West:
    Golden State/New Orleans: Winner and number of games in series for all matchups
    Portland/Memphis:

    Houston/Dallas:
    LA Clippers/Spurs:

    Toronto/Washington:

    Cleveland/Boston:
    Chicago/Milwaukee:

    Just to clarify, the bonus questions (excluding Finals MVP) are related to the entirety of the playoffs.

    I could be in! Winner-take-all or multiple people getting shipped to?

    It will depend on how many entries we have. I'd say if it goes over 10, we will add a 2nd place and more if it grows bigger...

    So far only have 5 that are potentially interested. Not too much more time for sign-ups... anyone else interested in this?

    Submitted mine. I'm in as long as we have enough people to pay 2 spots (even if 2nd is just not shipping).

    Are we able to edit our picks? I can't see what I submitted now. Just want to make sure I picked the right people in a couple spots.

    I'm in either way I guess, but if 6+ would prefer two spots pay.

    You should be able to revisit the link and edit your picks. Right now we only have 4 of us (including myself that have picks), do you guys want to still do this? We would just have the 3 of us that don't win ship to the winner.

    When I go in I just see an empty sheet. Most concerned with a few of the names I put.

    I would really prefer we try to grab 2+ people and pay 2 spots, but F it, I'm in if everyone else is in (pending I can edit my player names for categories, and we get visibility to everyones picks by the start).


    I don't think the alert worked, so adding these guys again:

    Just BM me with those player names and I can verify you have the ones you want/make changes - probably easier than figuring out how to go back and see/edit it. I'll post up the responses for everyone to see later today.

    Nice total finals score @allies_dad!

    Would not mind an early GS exit! I think that would give me a pretty solid shot. But the San Antonio has a tough road to the finals...
