Just for my own clarification, I only get to pick a player once in the series? In other words, you have to pick 4-7 different players depending on what occurs in the series.

  • The good ole days.
I've seen this brought up a couple times, but it hasn't been directly addressed I don't think...

What are the ramifications of a series that ends in 4 games vs. one that ends in 7?  Since we are going W-L decided on a game by game outcome, rather than cumulative +/- in the series, is it as simple as some matchups won't last as long as others?

I guess if anything, it only impacts strategy in picking players (i.e. if you think it will be a sweep, use your best 4 players)?

Yes, it's that simple BT...Your series goes as long as the NBA series goes (or until one person has clinched the pick em series)

If it's a 4 game series and two people are tied 2-2 we'll revert to the tiebreaker of who had the most cumulative points
Yup

Not sure.  I sent a PM to CW.  If he feels squeamish about picking a Bull being "anti-Celtic"  there's no need to feel that way.  A decent pick doesn't necessarily translate into a Celtics loss.  Hopefully we can have a legit pick or a replacement for Game 2.

Yup

Go Commish Redz. Now I'd like to take about refs for game 1.  ;D
