Lightbulb NBA Playoffs Contest - Pick 4 teams throughout playoffs

NBA Playoffs Contest - Pick 4 teams throughout playoffs
________________________________________
Just a very simple contest to keep things interesting! We did this last couple of years and it was not as mathematically as easy as people had thought it was going to be.

Do not edit your post or change your picks. You must enter by (first playoff game). Post in this thread!

You are going to pick 4 NBA teams out of the 16 playoff teams.

You will get the point value (the seed) listed below per win throughout the contest for all 4 teams.

The object is simple. End up with the most points. You can pick all from the East or West or split them up anyway. JUST PICK 4

1 - Chicago
1 - San Antonio
2 - Miami
2 - Los Angeles
3 - Boston
3 - Dallas
4 - Orlando
4 - Oklahoma City
5 - Atlanta
5 - Denver
6 - New York Knicks
6 - Portland
7 - Philadelphia
7 - New Orleans
8 - Indiana
8 - Memphis

- if you take Chicago or San Antonio as one of your four – you will get 1 point for each of their playoff wins
- If you take Indiana or Memphis as one of your four – you will get 8 points for each of their playoff wins.

*** Tiebreaker ***
Pick the winner of the NBA finals and in how many games the series will go. Pick before playoffs begin to be eligible

Prizes

First place - $100
Second place – $75
Third - $50
Forth - CM Shirt & Visor
Fifith - CM Shirt

* Prizes will be transferred through betjm
