I know it's a few days late but here it is...
2009 NBA Playoff Prediction Bracket
Quite a few changes this year from last year:
- Auto Calculation of scores based on your predictions and the actual results
- Added predictions for number of games in each series
- Results will be updated each night and posted on a Google Documents Webpage
Instructions:
- Download and open the Excel file.
- Fill out the bracket as you believe the playoffs will happen. To do so, click on the cell where the winner would go and hit the "=" then click on the winner and hit Enter. PLEASE USE CELL REFERENCES!
- There is a box below the line for the number of games you predict the series will go to, fill that out.
- After all predictions have been made, Save As the file to your desktop with your name as the file name and send it back to me. No screenshots this year.
The scoring for each round is as follows:
- First Round: 1 point for a correct prediction of a winner
- Second: 3 points
- Conference Finals: 7 points
- Championship Round: 15 points
If, during any round, you guess the correct number of games for the series, it is 1 bonus points. That brings the total for each round to 16 possible points and 64 for the entire bracket.
Feel free to send the bracket to anyone else who is interested.
I'll post the results in a Google Documents Webpage so everyone can check up on the results as the playoffs progress.
Good Luck!
