[RebusRankin]

Roy might come up huge, you never know. I'm glad you're still playing. I'd rather lose from a bad pick or a great pick on your part than win by default.

[Redz]

Does Wdeelhi win automatically since his opponent didn't pick a player?

yes

He can't suck for five straight games... can he?

By the way... since MattG's pick in Game 4 was a DNP, shouldn't it have been a tie, not a loss?  The rule is that DNP's pick up either a -5 or five less than the other player, whichever is worse - I'd think, according to that rule, that we'd tie in this case.

I'm interpreting that one that the guy who actually made a pick gets less punished than the guy who.  If I didn't write it correctly, we can change the wording, but picking a guy who deosn't play should take precedence over not submitting a pick somehow.

[CelticsWhat35]

Sorry guys.  I'll take the heat for that loss yesterday (although running the same play for Paul Pierce about 8 times in a row when Ben Gordon is obviously hobbled and can't keep up with Ray Allen didn't help either....vent over.)  I picked Jordan for game 1 and no one for game 4.  I was away most of the weekend and didn't think of it until the game already started.  But I'm gonna come through for the pivotal game 5.  John Salmons started to heat up at the end of the game yesterday, and I'm just the person to cool him off with my atrocious ability to pick people who will do good.

You can keep picking CW if you think it will help in a jinxing kinda way, but wdleehi already clinched your series.

Yes, I do.  I'm hoping he can go for the unprecedented 6 game sweep, similar to the 6 game sweep the Celtics put on the Lakers last year.

I'm not taking the series but you weren't sweeping. At least not without seeing Brandon Roy haha
