PAPOUG Playoffs

[Redz]

The advantage of the high seed getting to choose their team has worked out to be a true advantage.  Or maybe they're high seeds because they're just plain better at this!  (probably some combination of the two)

[misha]

Good luck in the next round, fairweatherfan! A well deserved win.

Thanks buddy!  I got lucky that the Jazz came out so strong after their injuries.  TP for the match.

Wow, I didn't realize I might be the only lower seed to win this round...I thought the low seeds cleaned up in the Game 1s but it looks like the high seeds rallied nicely.

BMD needs to pick to either play as Cleveland or Boston



BDM's opponent may be determined after tonights game. If Milwaukee does not win the series or Stoyko ties the series and ATL wins both Edgar and Stoyko will need to make a pick for the team that BDM doesn't take.

Not confusing at all

Kwhit, the tie breaker is total cumulative points, correct? Should I be rooting for both a Hawks win and a huge over for Williams?

Important news

that puts me in a very very bad situation
If I am not around to know my team to pick from or when to pick
I ask to Redz as No.1 consultant and roy hobbs ans No. 2 ( I am asking for this here)
to pick for me in order of not losing without playing.

Thank you very much

Kwhit, the tie breaker is total cumulative points, correct? Should I be rooting for both a Hawks win and a huge over for Williams?

Yes tie breaker is cumulative +/- score.  So you would need the Hawks to win and force a game seven while winning both games, or you would need a very  high score to take over the points lead if Milwaukee happens to win the series tonight.

Also Edgar I don't think anyone would have a problem of having someone else make picks for you.  Unless you want to PM someone your your list of players to choose and in what order for the 5 remaining Eastern teams incase you get any of them.  I know that's a lot of work if you want to do it.  But I don't mind if you delegate your picks to Redz/Roy.

[bdm860]

I'll take Boston.

[Kwhit10]

OKC: Nick Collison: 5.9

[Redz]

TP for sorting through all that Kwhit.

Things will hopefully clear up after tonight a bit, but we needed to get the contingencies in place.

[Redz]

I'll take Anthony Parker 7.3 for Edgar tomorrow if he needs a pick.

I don't have the heart to deny him Delonte
