The NBA season is under a month away. Come one, come all and tip your way through the NBA! Rules: - One point for a correct tip.
- Deadlines will be Friday midnight FT with a two hour grace period thereafter. The tipping comp organizer will determine if a post is late. (see Note below for Week 10)
- Default is equal to the higher of six or Wooden Spoon score.
- Tips not in by the first game's tipoff will receive default score.
- We will tip the opening day games, then 15 games each weekend (all Saturday and enough Sunday/Monday to equal 15). Note: Week 10 will be Friday games as there are no games on Christmas Eve.
- As per the last several years, the midpoints around the All-Star weekend will not be tipped.
Bonus points: - One point for picking a result solo, or one of two, provided 12 tippers apply.
- One point for picking 12 or more of 15. There were enough weeks last year that earned a near miss bonus, and this year's comp will determine next year's eligibility.
- Tippers will be ineligible for bonus points if they tip all homes or all bar one.

Will get both NBA and NHL results up this weekend. My dad came through today, so spent a lot of the day with him. Have been busy with other things as well, but am off work all weekend long.

Welcome to the 2016-17 NBA comp! What hangs in the balance for the Cavs, after their championship run last year? Who has the strength to dethrone them? That question will be decided in June. Trash talking LeBum is all but required...as this tipper is not a "king James" fan.
Welcome toocool4u aboard the NBA. Sypher returns from a one-year hiatus.
George95 and toocool4u were late, and a point was deducted as is custom. George95 also tipped after the first game started, and as there were only three games played on Tuesday, the "powers that be" decided to use the higher of default or what he scored. He would have been granted the missed game, had Sypher tipped Cleveland too. What was he thinking that eight Cavaliers could beat five Knicks on the floor? Oh wait, that's five Cavaliers and three officials against five Knicks...we mustn't touch king James or get assessed with a flagrant-2 and ejected from the game...ugh.
Both dg_dave and illiniman14 start atop the leaderboard with their picks of 12/15, garnering the only two bonus points this week.
Wwe84 starts off on the wrong foot and sits in the cellar.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

No, that is no misprint...four players went 14/15, and to add an extra mix to it, all four missed a different game (dg_dave missed the Knicks, gtho4 missed the Celtics, illiniman14 missed the Rockets, and srini701 missed the Thunder)! What kind of odds did we break in that fashion?
Overall, we did very well a a group, just missing 12/15 on average, which is 80%. Were these games that predictable?
Nine bonus points went out this week for a near-miss, including the above-mentioned four, plus paper_aero, Sypher, and toocool4u, who all hit 13/15, and Howie72 and N-Bomb both hitting on 12/15.
Our Spooner, ozzz2002, hit over 50% at 8/15. Two others just missed at 9/15, wwe84, who stays in the cellar, and LeoDaVinci.
Both dg_dave and illiniman14 stay atop the leaderboard this week, but will they hang on next weekend? Only time will tell...
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

For LeoDaVinci's team, they were on the end of a 99 score...but they only came out ahead in Louisiana, as they gave up 99 to the Pelicans but only scored 99 against the Timberwolves.
Four bonus points go out this week, and they were to the weekly winners of 12/15 scores: Sypher, paper_aero, Howie72, and George95. Ozzz2002 came out on the opposing end of that, taking his second Spoon of the season.
No one had faith in the Magic knocking off the Thunder in Oklahoma, but they did...albeit by a small margin.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

No near-miss bonus points go out this week, but three still go out...two to LeoDaVinci for his picks of the Pelicans and Knicks (the Knicks pick was shared with wwe84, who finally comes off the bottom rung). Leo is also the only double digit scorer of the week.
We just missed 50% on picks for the first time this season, and it was also the first below 60%. Let's see if we can do better next week.
Chicago played in the same venue twice, but ended up 1-1...lost to the Clippers, but beat the Lakers. I'm sure LDV would rather that be reversed. Sorry, LDV, not able to pull the video replay to overturn that call... 
ElfTwinkle needs to get a new dartboard after her low point of this season...she scored five and a Spoon.
No one had faith in the Pacers knocking off the Thunder in Oklahoma, but they did...albeit by a small margin, and this one took OT to decide.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

A much better week this week, as we cross back over the 65% threshold again. Only one, our Spooner, gtho4, missed the 50% mark this week, and only four others missed double digits.
Both paper_aero and Sypher leapfrog dg_dave for the lead, after they both go 13/15, jagging a bonus point each for those efforts. They both missed the same games (Lakers and Pacers wins, and the latter was solely jagged by wwe84). Remember a few weeks ago when four went 14/15 and none of them agreed on the missed games?
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

Three players take the weekly win this week, and with it, a bonus point for hitting 12+. LeoDaVinci went one better by picking the Hawks to win against the Spurs.
Ozzz2002 solidifies himself in the cellar with his fifth Spoon of the season.
Outside of Week 2 and Week 5, we have stayed consistent...especially the last five weeks...this week was the best of the five at 137, but none of the last five have been below 130.
Yet again, the 8 on 5 happened...this time, however, it was on the road...oh wait, that's three officials and five Cavaliers...oops. No, that's right, it would be eight as you can't graze James or get nailed for a flagrant-2 and automatic ejection. I'm surprised teams aren't forced to forfeit because of that!!!
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

Both of the weekly winners this week also took a bonus point for their 12/15 effort, and another each for picking an upset (although srini's upset he shared with ozzz). Srini701 also takes the lead away from both paper_aero and Sypher.
We went about with the status quo again this week, as we stayed in the 60-70% strike rate, however, we were far closer to 70% as nine games were picked by 12 or more.
Chicago and Detroit needed some extra time to decide theirs, and Detroit didn't get just five more out of the deal...they had to go a further five. Detroit and Portland scored two less total with an extra ten minutes to what Houston and Toronto scored in 48 minutes of play (251-249).
And again, the 8 on 5 happened...this time, however, it was on the road...oh wait, that's three officials and five Cavaliers...oops. No, that's right, it would be eight as you can't graze James or get nailed for a flagrant-2 and automatic ejection, but Phoenix almost pulled off the upset! The officials must have not been watching LeBum as much and didn't call as many fouls?
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

Wwe84 takes the weekly win, but doesn't budge on the leaderboard, even with LeoDaVinci's default, as there was an eight point spread last week, but wwe's win pulls ozzz2002 further into the cellar.  Trust me, ozzz, I understand, as I am further behind 2nd last in NCAA basketball.
We went all or none on two games and hit with one of them. We all picked the road team with both, and both teams were Texas teams, but San Antonio's defensive ways fell apart and they lost in Phoenix.
No bonus points went out this week, safe for wwe84's near miss.
What's with the line of games here? Eight home, four road, three home, in that order.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |

Where do I begin with this week? Should I start with the Warriors scoring 144 in 48 minutes, or the Knicks and Hawks NOT scoring that in 68 (yes, you read that right, 68 minutes)? How about we address both? Yes, the Warriors opened up a can on the Clippers, beating them by 46, although the Clippers scored almost 100 in the process, unlike last week's 49 point shellacking of the Lakers in Dallas (the Lakers didn't even reach 75). The game in Atlanta just didn't want to end...or did it? After scoring 104 in the first 48 minutes each, they scored 9 in the first OT (113-113), 10 in the 2nd (120-120), 7 in the 3rd (127-127), and Atlanta limped (after that type of game, I'm surprised everyone playing wasn't limping - as the game lasted nearly four hours) away with 12 in the 4th OT, while New York only got 9. Paul Millsap was the iron man of the game, playing 60 of the 68 minutes, while Tim Hardaway Jr. logged 57 himself. Two Knicks also logged more minutes than a regulation game (Courtney Lee with 52 and Brandon Jennings with 53), and none of those four fouled out! Four Knicks fouled out (one playing a mere 25 minutes), while only one Hawk did. The Knicks had 39 fouls called against them, yet the Hawks were flagged for only 24. The previous 4OT game that the Knicks played was only 66 years ago, in January 1951, also in a loss, and Atlanta's last one was a win a mere five years ago.
Sypher and dg_dave both had some bold moves, and they paid off...although Sypher's was more daring than mine was...as he picked Dallas to win in San Antonio, and Dallas was on a 12 game losing streak to the Spurs. Both picked Orlando to win north of the border, and ozzz2002 and ElfTwinkle round out the bonuses with their picks of Indianapolis winning at home to the Rockets.
We had our second straight (and third overall) under 60%, but as four of the fifteen games were picked by one or two, that will have an impact.
LeBum and Co. paid off the officials again and got back to their cheating ways...knocking off Oklahoma City by 16.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball! |
