Playoff prediction Game Final Four

comment on the article

Ok this the Final Four of my game.

NavyBlueandWhite

Super_PAO

These are the match ups for the conf semis:

Eastern Conference:

Boston Celtics 4-3 Cleveland Cavaliers
Orlando Magic 1-4 Detroit Pistons

Western Conference:

Los Angeles Lakers 4-2 Utah Jazz
San Antonio Spurs 4-3 New Orleans Hornets


Just so you all know that this is the points system for this round.

7 points for correct score
5 points for correct winner
3 points for each game correctly predicted.

If you already made your predictions in my last article for these games then tht's fine as I'll count those on to the tables.


And these are the conf Finals so please make your predictions:

Eastern Canference:
Boston Celtics 4-2 Detroit Pistons

Western Conference:
Los Angeles Lakers 4-1 San Antonio Spurs

Ok it's closed up big time here.
Right for the Finals aswell as predicting the series score you're going to predict each game aswell.

Here's what I'd put as an example:

LA Lakers 3-4 Boston Celtics

Game 1 - Boston
Game 2 - Boston
Game 3 - LA
Game 4 - LA
Game 5 - LA
Game 6 - Boston
Game 7 - Boston

That's what I would put, however if you think it's less then 7 games then just put 4,5 or 6 which ever agrees with your prediction.
Points system above for info. Good Luck and may the best man win.

Finals so far.

Game 1 - Boston
Game 2 - Boston
Game 3 - LA
Game 4 - Boston
Game 5 - LA
Game 6 - Boston

Well done Boston Celtics for winning 4-2.


Now more importantly here is the final table:

1.Super_PAO = 47
2.celticfcdan = 45
3.NavyBlueandWhite = 44
4.$ROUDtheKING = 39

So Congratulations Super_PAO for winning the Playoff Prediction Game 2008. I hope you will be back next year to defend your title.

I knew I should have just copied you all when I went in the lead, instead I did a 'Lakers Game 4-esque' plummet into third place doh

Ok cool Incredible...

I wouldn't mind setting it up at the time, but would need your help, as you have done very well with this one.

Long time to go, but Im sure there will enough interest. Then the two can become an annual thing..

Also possibility for an International version (Olympics tournament, World Championships and Eurobasket), as one take place each year around the same time (August - September). The international one could be either open to all, or to the top 4 players from the Euroleague and NBA predictor!!
