The People’s Tiebreak: Pair Of Shoes On The Line

The Basketball Jones is giving away a pair of Adidas basketball shoes to the person with the longest streak of picks during the postseason. Since we have a 3-way tie at 3, we’ve got a tiebreaker going on. Each contestant will pick the winner of each game, and guess how many points they’ll win by. The difference of points between the pick and the actual score will be added up after each game, over the course of the series. The person with the smallest number will win the shoes. We’ve got a tight race going in to game 3:

Game 3 Tiebreaker Picks
C Squared: Lakers by 7
Sports Tsar: Lakers by 6
Hawkboy: Lakers by 10

Tiebreaker Standings
1. C Squared: - (22)
1. Sports Tsar: - (22)
3. Hawkboy: +2 (24)

    I guess no one touched Pierce’s mangina.
    Who stunk more? Pierce or Odom/Gasol?

    Whose bright idea is it to turn on a mic during a time out? Doc sounds like Meldrick Taylor.

    Notice how Powe’s overacting and Farmar shooting backwards 12 feet when he drew Mangina’s 5th foul ARENT considered flopping? Guaranteed if the names were Rodriguez and Saputo, the self righteous brigade would have had their pavlovian moment and berated them. Doesnt bother me either way but it was funny how Farmar’s extra mustard was viewed as a professionally executed foul, which it was.
    Perception is subjective.
