Default 2nd Annual NBA COMPETITION

Entries need to be received by 12 pm (ET) on Saturday, April 17. That's when the first game begins.

Rules are simple, fill out your NBA bracket. I don't know how well this is going to turn out, because I expect the teams to be pretty much the same, but we'll see how it goes.


Please email your brackets to [email protected] or pm your picks to h20guy here on Jockstocks and please include your J$ user name. I'm sure we can get Orren/Nick to ante up another $100k for this competition too.



Points will be assigned as follows:
Picks advancing to the Conf. Semis = 1 points
... to the Conference Finals = 3 points
… to the NBA Finals = 5 points
Picking the Champs= 10 points
Picking the Finals MVP= 15 points
***TIEBREAKER- Pick total points scored in the NBA finals by both teams.

I put in for last game only. You are probably right which means all games better be about 16-15 for my tiebreaker to be close.

I also thought all 7 games. baller....just send him your change...the games haven't started yet. I'd have no problem with changing that after the deadline.

yeah but when I did my math I had Suns and Magic going 6 games and 220 per game. You never know with Phoenix. 1323 was my guess and they could do that in 5 games. But honestly I assumed 6 games. So you dont necessarily have to do your per game total x 7 if the series in your mind will be over sooner.

Also I have no problem with the scoring but it seems like if you take Cleveland and Lebron you can outscore someone who gets everything right but misses the MVP. I like it like NCAA. +1 win quarter, +2 win semi, +4 win conf, +8 win finals and MVP would be a tie breaker and not really to determine point winner. tot points 2nd tie breaker. just IMO
