Bonus points:

  2. One point for picking 12+/15.
  3. Tippers will be ineligible for bonus points if they tip all homes or all bar one.

No newbies and zero no-shows. All 13 players from last year's comp have returned for another dose.

Last year's medallists were Howie72, gtho4 and srini701. The defending titleholder collected a wooden spoon and is equal last in 11th place with the other two spooners .. gtho4 didn't fair much better in 10th place .. and srini701 scores a weekly win and is in equal 1st place with N-Bomb. A single point covers the rest of the field (7 of 13 runners).

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a one point deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline..

Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)!

We have a runaway. After just two rounds, srini701 has skipped away to a 4 pt lead, with back-to-back weekly wins.

The peloton of six are separated by a single point .. and the next four are also separated by a single point.

Bringing up the rear is LeoDaVinci. He collects back-to-back wooden spoons and finds himself 2 pts behind Sypher and 4 pts adrift of the field .. and a mere 11 pts behind the leader. Sypher is 2 pts adrift of the field.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a one point deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline..

Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)!

The remainder of the field are separated by a mere 4 pts.

We've roped in one more, MTrooper, and now have a field of 14 runners. Welcome aboard!

ozzz2002 and srini701 retain the first two spots .. wwe84 picks 11/15 for the weekly win which, with 2 bonus points, sees him climb up the ladder from 9th place to replace dg_dave in 3rd spot.

The first three have put 2 pts between themselves and peloton of *ten*, aka the rest of the field apart from Sypher, who's now drifting away in the Pacific .. a mere 3 pts cover the peloton.

Put aside Sypher, and top to bottom is still 9 pts. That's week 4 of 24.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.

Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)!   (dg_dave)

ozzz2002 collects this week's wooden spoon and drops from 1st to equal 2nd place .. srini701 has taken over front-running duties. That completes a great weekend for ozzz2002 .. he was pushed out of first place in the FT-PL comp by paper_aero.

The first four are the same as last week's first four, albeit the first three have swapped places .. they're separated by 3 pts. From there we have a gap of 2 pts to the peloton, where the remaining field of 10 runners are separated by a mere 4 pts.

New high: --
New low : dg_dve, Howie72, MTrooper

Nine players collected a bonus point for perfect picks of 12+/15 and between us we averaged a strike rate of 78.6%. Neither is a record.
e.g. Round 16 of the 2017-18 comp had a strike rate of 83.8% and ten perfect bonuses.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)!   (dg_dave)

Last week ozzz2002 collected the wooden spoon and was replaced as leader. This week he's one of three weekly winners which, with a bonus point for an outrageous solo pick, sees him back at the top of the pile.

Llynfi and Howie72 were the other weekly winners, their first wins this season, which filled two more blanks in that column. George95 collected the wooden spoon which, as another first, filled one more blank in that column.

Week 6 saw a perfect rendition of musical chairs, apart from MTropper, whose cement shoes sees his feet firmly planted at the foot of the table.

New high: gtho4
New low : dg_dave (again), George95

The four out front are the same as last week's first four, albeit they all swapped places. From there we have a gap of 2 pts to the peloton (same as last week), where the remaining field of 10 runners are separated by a mere 4 pts (same as last week).

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)!   (dg_dave)

There's simply no end to his talents .. a cacophony of upsets over the weekend, which saw 10 of 15 road teams win, was no impediment to ozzz2002 and his endless talents. He's extended his lead out front to
5 pts .. and another outrageous pick saw him score yet another bonus point to make it seven for the season, almost double the next-best of four bonuses by LeoDaVinci.

The next 5 pts cover the *entire* field, apart from the two stragglers at the back.

The other outrageous picks were by dg_dave, paper-aero and Sypher. The only blank in that column is MTrooper, who joined us in Week 5.

This round's winners, toocool4u and dg_dave, scored their first for the season, which filled two more blanks in that column (there are six left). George95 collected back-to back spoons; and the other two spoons were firsts for MTrooper and gtho4, which also filled in two more blanks (there are now five blanks in the WS column).

New high: toocool4u, paper_aero, LeoDaVinci
New low : srini701, George95

Last week saw a perfect rendition of musical chairs, apart from the tail-ender, MTropper, who remained firmly planted at the foot of the table. This week was an encore performance, apart from the leader and the tail-ender (and wwe84 in the middle).

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)! (dg_dave)

toocool4u is this week's winner with 14/15. He was 13/13 going in the two Monday night games, but missed the win by Cleveland. He almost became the 4th member of an exclusive club: these three are the only perfect picks since the first NBA comp, some 20 years ago, way back in in 2001-02:

16/16  Sypher  08-Apr-05 R24
15/15  N-Bomb  28-Dec-13 R10
15/15  George95 19-Jan-19 R14

Back-to-back weekly wins see toocool4u replace ozzz2002 out front. He's the fourth different leader so far this season. MTrooper has now collected back-to-back woodens spoons. However, he did collect his first bonus point, which plugged the last hole in that column.

New high: toocool4u (again), paper_aero (again), Howie72.
New low : srini701 (again).

The first three are now separated by 4 pts .. ditto the peloton of *nine* players .. they're also separated by 4 pts. Sypher joins MTrooper at the rear of the field.

Two weeks ago we had a perfect rendition of musical chairs, apart from the tail-ender, MTropper, who remained firmly planted at the foot of the table. Last week was an encore performance, apart from the leader and the tail-ender (and wwe84 in the middle). This week was another encore, apart from N-Bomber, Llynfi and the tail-ender.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)! (dg_dave)

A weekend of upsets and postponements saw toocool4u replaced out front by N-Bomb and ozzz2002, who are this week's winners with just 6/12 (they also scored a bucketful of bonus points with what were some truly outrageous solo picks).

From there the gap back to the peloton of *nine* players is now 5 pts (it was 2 pts last week). The peloton is still covered by a 4 point spread.

dg_dave, LeoDaVinci and wwe84 also scored bonus points with some truly inspiring solo picks .. and paper_aero collected his first wooden spoon for the season.

Between us we had an average strike rate of 31.9%, which may be an all-time record-low for the NBA comp. I've gone through the last few year's results and we haven't come close to that low.

New high: Howie72 (again), LeoDaVinci.
New low : srini701 (again), gtho4.

Once again we almost had a perfect rendition of musical chairs. For the 3rd straight week everybody swapped places, except three. This week it was the three at the rear of the field.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)! (dg_dave)

R10 was a complete round of 15 games played, with zero postponed. We had three weekly winners, all first-timers, which filled three of the six blanks in that column. LeoDaVinci, paper_aero and Sypher are still looking for their first win.

There were no bonus points this week for solo picks, zilch.

No change out front .. the first three are still there with a comfortable gap back to a peloton of nine, with another gap back to the two tail-enders.

New high: --
New low : dg_dave

Once again we almost had a perfect rendition of musical chairs. For the fourth straight week everybody swapped places except, once again, for three players.

Two more rounds and we'll be half-way through the comp.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)! (dg_dave)

toocool4u is this week's winner. He jumps up into second place behind N-Bomb, replacing ozzz2002. LeoDaVinci, paper_aero and Sypher are still looking for their first win .. wwe84 collected his first wooden spoon, which filled another blank in that column. We now have three players looking for their first spoon: N-Bomb, Llynfi and srini701.

There were four bonus points this week, three for solo picks and one for a near miss .. ozzz2002 now has 12 bonus points for the season, double the six bonus points by the next best, LeoDaVinci.

New high: --
New low : wwe84

The first three are still there with a very comfortable gap of 7 pts (up from the 5 pt gap of last week) back to a peloton of nine, with another gap of 5 points back to the two tail-enders (down slightly from 6 pts last week).

One more rounds and we'll be at the half-way mark the NBA comp.

Reminder: the grace period of six hours in the 2nd half of last season has been retained. It should allow everyone to have a deadline which is a civilized hour in their local time. Please don't risk getting too close to the end of the grace period, as you will face a 1 pt deduction if you lodge your picks after the extended deadline.
Until next week, everyone, sink a 3-ball (unless you are a Laker player)! (dg_dave)
