The Rules
Make your selections in bold. Please also include how many points you think the specific team will win by (e.g. Los Angeles Lakers by 10 vs. Los Angeles Clippers).
You have until Tuesday, Nov. 5th, 2013 at 5 PM PST to make your selections. Any picks made after this set date and time will not count. Anyone who edits their post after this set date and time will face consequences.
Read the rules here (http://insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=313960) for more details.


The Bets
In your initial post where you will cast your picks, you may make a bet challenge to anyone willing to accept. If someone accepts, he will have to quote your post. Only one person may accept any one bet. You may only bet up to 5 points. Person who made the bet may have to shoot me a PM if the bet is not acknowledged by me in a timely manner to let me know the bet has been accepted. You have until Tues., Nov. 5th at 5 pm PST (8 Eastern) to cast your bets. You may NOT cast bets for games or NBA related events that have passed (eg. do not make a bet saying, "Miami will beat Bulls on opening night" since it already happened).

The Wagers
Read about these here (http://insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=313960). Please understand the rules before posting. If you clearly did not understand, I will ignore your wager.

Pick one that you DISAGREE with (meaning, you don't think it will happen) if you want to risk a point (Note: You may only choose one):

1) Kevin Love will attempt more 3-Pters than Stephen Curry in the Golden State Warriors vs the Minnesota Timberwolves game on Wed., Nov. 6th.
2) Michael Carter-Williams will score 30 or more points vs the Washington Wizards on Wed., Nov. 6th.
3) The Miami Heat will out rebound the Los Angeles Clippers on Thurs., Nov. 7th.


Wagers are optional. Do not choose one if you don't want to risk losing a point.


THE PICKS:
Game One (Tues., 11/05/13): Atlanta Hawks @ Sacramento Kings
Game Two (Wed., 11/06/13): Washington Wizards @ Philadelphia 76ers
Game Three (Thurs., 11/07/13): Los Angeles Clippers @ Miami Heat
Game Four (Thurs., 11/07/13): Los Angeles Lakers @ Houston Rockets
Game Five (Sun., 11/10/13): San Antonio Spurs @ New York Knicks


Good luck.




Quick Note: If you feel I made a mistake in the standings, please let me know and give me actual concrete evidence that you deserve more points or someone deserves less points than I tallied here. Please also remember that everyone started with 5 points in Week One. All points include the initial 5 points, all picks + predicted "won-by-X-pts" totals, bets and wagers.
Though I believe I got it 100% accurate, I am only human after all and may have missed an accurate or inaccurate prediction.

Yeah, same here. I also struggled deciding the Heat vs Clippers game.


Should have had a Dwight vs LA wager on there.

Eh... I probably should have, but now it's too late.

For next week, I'll come with better wagers. The Steph Curry wager seems too easy.

For next week, I'll come with better wagers. The Steph Curry wager seems too easy.

Maybe that's a stupid question, but English isn't my 1st language and I'm not sure if I got this right...if I take the Curry wager, I'm betting that he isn't attempting at least 5 3pt attempts, right? That's how I understood you specifically saying I have to pick a wager I disagree with. Or is it the other way around, and I'm just dumb as f*ck?

wait, OP says you wager on things that you disagree with, so you guys all think steph will take less than 5 threes against minnesota? he is taking 9 a game so far this year

[dr.hee]

wait, OP says you wager on things that you disagree with, so you guys all think steph will take less than 5 threes against minnesota? he is taking 9 a game so far this year

I was wondering the same thing. In the original rules, its says you can agree/disagree with any of the wagers, but in this thread it's saying I have to pick one I disagree with. No idea...

[Scholar]

Yeah, sorry, guys. I made the wagers quickly so I worded that one wrong. I meant to put "Steph Curry will attempt 5 or less 3's." Now it's a bit too late to change it, so I guess we all better hope he decides not to shoot at least five 3pters!
:facepalm
My bad. I would change it now, but it wouldn't be fair.

Edit: If everyone is ok with it, I am willing to change the first wager to something different. I think Steph Curry taking 5+ 3pters is a given.

[Legends66NBA7]

Wager:

Stephen Curry will attempt at least five 3-pters vs the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wed., Nov. 6th. (Yes, I agree on this wager)

WAGER #1 HAS BEEN CHANGED!

If you picked wager 1, please read it again as it has been modified to better fit the criteria of the wagers.

You may only DISAGREE with this week's wagers. There is no agreeing. If you think the stated wager will NOT happen, then pick it; if you think the stated wager WILL happen, do not choose it.

Sorry for this inconvenience. Next week's wagers will for sure be worded better to avoid confusion.

I don't get why you need to change it tho... It's worded pretty clearly, even tho it's not what you mean.

[dr.hee]

I don't get why you need to change it tho... It's worded pretty clearly, even tho it's not what you mean.

Agree. But what confused me was the fact thas some guys "agreed" with the wager, so there were bets on both outcomes of a specific statement. The disagree only part is stated pretty clearly though.

[Scholar]

You know, I shouldn't smoke weed before reading into remarks about wagers. I rushed into switching it because I thought the complaint was that I didn't make sense. I'll leave it as is now. I don't want to keep making changes.
If anyone who agreed to the previous wager wants to change their wager now, do so before Tues., Nov. 5th, otherwise you'll be listed as disagreeing with the new #1.

Thanks for the PM, guys. I appreciate the effort. :cheers:

To LEFT4DEAD & chips93:
I just want to make sure I understand the bet. Is LEFT4DEAD saying LeBron will have 30+ PTs & double digits in another statistical category (eg. 30 PTs/10 reb)? The bet is good for 3 points. I'll allow it. Just please verify for me that this is what you two have agreed on.

[Scholar]

Also, I have a bet if anyone wants to lose some points to me:

Carmelo Anthony will be held to below 50% FG vs the San Antonio Spurs on Sun., 11/10/13.
I'll bet 3 points.

Any takers?

[Numero 10]

I'd love to participate.

Is it too late to join the NBA Pick 'Em league?

[RoundMoundOfReb]

I have little doubt in my mind that the knicks are going to get obliterated by the Spurs.

[dr.hee]

Is it too late to change my NY vs SA pick from Spurs by 5 to 50?

[RoundMoundOfReb]

OP is banned. Guess this is over.

[Sakkreth]

Oh well...

[fsvr54]

And I was killing it :facepalm

What was he banned for?

[dr.hee]

Wait what? What did he do? I mean come on, idiots like 9er,NickYoung, Budadii, FreshKid and Euroleague are still around...so did Scholar kill someone or what?

[JimmyMcAdocious]

For how long? If he comes back by next week, someone could fill in and make the props. Not exactly a difficult thing to do.

Or we just skip a week. Wish we skipped this week. I went full retard with my picks.

[hitman24]

banned? the Michael Jordan of posters?

[chips93]

does anybody wanna fill in for scholar?

or will we just skip this week and hope he gets reinstated?

[Jameerthefear]

Skip this week I guess.. Wonder why he got banned...

[fpliii]

Someone else can start the thread, here are the national games this week to choose from I guess:

Tue, Nov 12 Detroit @ Golden State NBATV
Wed, Nov 13 New York @ Atlanta ESPN
Wed, Nov 13 Oklahoma City @ L.A. Clippers ESPN
Thu, Nov 14 Houston @ New York TNT
Thu, Nov 14 Oklahoma City @ Golden State
Fri, Nov 15 Minnesota @ Denver ESPN
Fri, Nov 15 Detroit @ Sacramento ESPN
Sat, Nov 16 Brooklyn @ L.A. Clippers NBATV

We just have to pick 5 from these, right? I guess we'd have to update the standings as well.

[hitman24]

I'll do it. I'll update a thread as soon as I get home.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

No Tuesday games or props if someone is actually doing this. At least give 24 hours for people to make their picks.
