UPDATE: Post your round two picks, regardless of wether you made bad picks for the global bracket, it's not the NCAA tournament https://www.nbabracketology.com/group/view/10430 Register here, password SA Then pop in your bracket. Lurkers are very welcome. Don't sweat it if you're late, registration is open til monday (games start Saturday the 15th) if you want to cheat and wait for the first game of each series, that's fine, but the Lord God will know, and so will I. If you make a bracket, post in this thread just to keep the thread visible and so we have a headcount, posting your picks isn't necessary if you're too busy dribbling two basketballs at once, just makes poo poo talking easier. This is not the official playoffs discussion thread, just for proving your heart, guts, passion, and religious faith, by beating your fellow sportsfan in a choice-ing game In the first round, you get 10 points for picking the series winner, with an additional 5 point bonus for getting the number of games correct. This doubles in each round all the way through the NBA Finals. (80 points for winner, 40 point bonus) Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 18:50 on Apr 30, 2017 |

MOD INTERRUPT This is now endorsed. Winner gets a prize in the form of a forums upgrade! Loser (least points) will get an avatar of shame (unless you bet your avatar elsewhere in regards to the NBA/NHL playoffs, in which case it goes to the next worst)!

Here are my toxxes for the playoffs. For every round the Grizzlies advance in the NBA Playoffs, I will donate $25 to Kibner's awesome fundraiser. (Suggestion for those of you looking to find a cause to donate to, may i recommend this? Kibner and his band of merry troubadours are going on tour to underprivileged children. They just recently played at St. Jude! My mother, who works there, says that they were excellent.) Here is a link to the GoFundMe page. You should donate anyway. When the Grizzlies win the NBA Championship, I will send a 901 Care Package to one fan of each of the teams we beat along the way. You must be one of my posting allies to claim your Care Package. Non-finals toxxes: If the Clippers make it to the WCF, I will send straight up brolic a 901 Care Package. If the Raptors make it to the ECF, I will send Lessail a 901 Care Package. If the Celtics make it to the ECF, I will send cool buff man a 901 Care Package. If the Rockets make it to the WCF, I will send chunkles a 901 Care Package.

If the Raps make the finals I'll send all the other raptor posters big glossy photos of Dwane Casey. My own will be framed and placed on the mantle.

Hope you don't mind me cheating by watching the Cavs-Pacers game and almost all of the Raptors-Bucks game before putting up my bracket: East Celtics in 6 Cavs in 5 Raptors in 7 Wizards in 6 West Warriors in 4 Spurs in 6 Rockets in 6 Jazz in 7 Edit: 2nd round Celtics over Wizards in 7 Cavs over Raptors in 5 Warriors over Jazz in 5 Rockets over Spurs in 7 3rd round Cavs over Celtics in 6 Warriors over Rockets in 5 Finals Warriors over Cavs in 5 Edited again for spoilers because apparently that's a thing.
