  • Yup
I was thinking of more devious tactics in the game threads, for example:

"Wow ... the Celtics are on fire tonight! This is a great game ... speaking of great games ... "

 ... or even:

"Hey, did you see KG set a pick on that player? Hey, speaking of picking players ... "

;)

ahh...the subtle approach...I like it

Like:  Did you see Scalabrine dunk over Lebron...While we're on the topic of "over"...



Yeah ... exactly, lol! My opening line would be more like:

"Man, looks like the Celts didn't show up to play tonight ... speaking of DNP's ... "  ;)

Celts are playing like doody, and getting nothing for their effort.  Did you know that you could play like doody and still get rewarded?
Yup

Not sure if you noticed, Bass, but here are the links to players' averages ... one is by PPG, the other is alphabetically by player name.


You just pick a player that has a game that night, like say Brian Scalabrine, and look up his Point-Per-Game average here:

http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics/player/_/stat/scoring-per-game/sort/avgPoints/year/2010/seasontype/2 

or here:

http://www.nba.com/players/index.html 

 ... and however many points they score OVER that average is your score.

Say Scal's average is 2.2, if he scores 12 that night, then your score is the difference, or +9.8. Hope that makes it clearer.

Looks like you pulled it out, Bud ... now I don't feel quite so bad about Curry robbing you of that +16.9 yesterday ... that had to have hurt. ;)
