Official Motorgen NBA Finals Prediction Game
 
1 Attachment(s)
Final bracket has been updated and attached. First game starts Saturday. Get your submission in!

Here it is ladies and gentlemen. The official Motorgen NBA Finals Prediction Contest.



The scoring goes as follows:

For every correct prediction of a series winner you earn points. For examples, if Round 1 in the West you predict the Lakers beat the Nuggets... and they do, you earn points.

Round 1 correct predictions earn you 1 point each (possible 8 points total - 4 in the West, 4 in the East)
Round 2 - 3 points (12 possible)
Conference Finals - 7 points (14 possible)
NBA Champions - 15 points

Obviously, the person with the most points at the end wins.

All the information you need is attached in the Microsoft Excel file. Once you have made your predictions. Attach/Post a screen shot or your bracket and let the games begin. All submissions must be in before the first game is played. No revisions.

Mods, can we get a sticky on this thread? And possibly think of some type of prize? Perhaps an icon of a basketball next to their name.

Important notes:

- Do not mess with the statistics. The bracket populates via cell references and you could mess up your bracket. If you do... just download it again.

- For those that aren't savvy with Excel, to fill in your bracket, simply select the cell where the winner would go, hit the = button, click on the winner and hit enter. It will advance that team for you.

You may have to revise this after tonight's games, but I'll be putting mine up for sure. Great idea.:bigthumbsup:

Sounds awesome, we'll have to see how things finish out tonight and then we'll start filling in.

Just a thought, is the first round Best of 5 rather than 7 like the other rounds?

SeanPlunk 04-16-2008 08:52 PM

No, all rounds are best of 7 now.

Here's mine. Go Lakers...

Lakers FTW!

No way Phoenix is making it that far. They won't beat San Antonio.

SeanPlunk 04-17-2008 10:36 PM

Not according to the guys on ESPN: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/playof...?series=phosas

I picked Phoenix before looking at that for the record.
