Forum Game Over/Under Playoffs #5 Warriors

[KeepOnRollin]

Statement: Since this is a possible elimination game we do the "bet as many points as you wish" round. There is some strategy involved in this. You don't automatically want to bet all your points necessarily (especially if you think the Trail Blazers will win game #5).

Question: What player will come closest to scoring 12 points for the Trail Blazers in Game #5 against the Warriors? Don't forget to tell me how many points you are wagering as well.

P.S. No participation points this time. And only best picture if the series is over and I need to break a tiebreaker.

So we have a tie between @UncleCliffy'sDaddy and @HomerLovesKoolAid and I originally said I would pick best picture to break a tie but they are both good pictures. If you guys can't handle a tie though I go with Homer as his picture said how many points he was risking in addition to the person, all in one. And shoutout to @e_blazer as well who also would have tied if not being eliminated.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I said Harkless too.

I win!

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

I am honored to share first prize with @UncleCliffy'sDaddy.

The best part is knowing that I destroyed @SlyPokerDog!

That's okay, I'll take it out on Mrs Homer.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

That's okay, I'll take it out on Mrs Homer.

I'm telling Grammur!

 

[riverman]

Shoutout to UCD and Homer....but if the tie score was 66 apiece we need an evil tiebreaker! UCD finally tops me in the last game of the season...I can't believe I was ousted by a couple of pictures!! Well done guys and shoutout to KoR for doing these serious competitions for our geek bragging rights!

 

[riverman]

That's okay, I'll take it out on Mrs Homer.

translation....Sly will pee on Mrs Homer's tires

 

[UncleCliffy'sDaddy]

Congrats Homer! I too am honored to share the award with you! I can't wait for next year's contest(s). The rest of the gang will need to bring their "A" games every day in order to beat a pair of intellectual bad asses like the two of us. We are the champions, we are the champions.......of Ess Twoooooooo........

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

BTW, how did I do in the predictions game?

 

[e_blazer]

I'm thrilled with my posthumous share of the award.

 

[riverman]

BTW, how did I do in the predictions game?

you beat me there too....I covet that last place slot and you keep owning it

 

[riverman]

it was exhausting being number one most of the season and throwing all my points away at the end....I feel like Lamarcus Aldridge must feel today
