As an interesting sidenote,...Yeah, I thought so :)<br /><br />As an interesting sidenote, after I had to chose between Walker and Jefferson and picking Walker Jefferson promptly went a set a new franchise playoffbest in points in the first quarter. Just like Howard did after I picked Harden :D<br /><br />In the end Walker was the 4th best Bobcat to pick, sitting out the blowout. Ah well.<br /><br />I don´t play this game to win, I play it for fun. That doesn´t change the fact that I really like to whine about bad luck in the picks. Just see my comments in this blog last season.<br /><br />I still like the playoffs and this stupid little game, or else I wouldn´t still play it. Curry is still on for me tonight. <br /><br />By the way, I am sitting in the 55th percentile. Just wait and see if I can´t go all the way up to 80 before this is all over.Alex Hergeshttp://www.donald.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-70993787849761032502014-04-27T07:20:38.892-07:002014-04-27T07:20:38.892-07:00I almost would not be upset not to get the two HOT...I almost would not be upset not to get the two HOT guys from HOU picked....<br />....

One of the easiest pick considering that is a must win game for the warriors and even if they win they won't go to the semis. I'm happy for the wins of pacers and thunder..as i wrote yesterday i bet on them to go through and i don't pick their players,saving them for the next rounds. Then it will pay off for me. <br />Vince Carter buzzer was outstanding, that was really a great game. Spurs are still the favourites, and i still predict their win in 7..But will be a great effort against these mavericks, and IF they go down 3-1 then will be so hard for them to come back..in that case i'll pick a spurs. <br /><br />MatteoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-86178773337614433112014-04-27T06:03:35.855-07:002014-04-27T06:03:35.855-07:00Matteo, yep it seems there is a problem.

Indiana and OKC both took Game 4 and now have taken back home court advantage. Now that the games are done, I can firmly make my pick for Sunday. My choices are between David Lee, Klay Thompson, Kyle Lowry and Joakim Noah. I'm having a tough time reading the Clippers secondary players. Lee could be good but might not play as much. In that case Thomspon might make a nice selection, but I'm not sure I can trust him after getting me a 6 PRA last year (it still stings). Joakim Noah seems to make sense, but I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bulls win again, and even if they don't I think he might survive to see a Game 6 (and even if he doesn't I could live with that). So the guy I really like is Kyle Lowry. With Mavericks-Spurs Game 5 and 6 falling on the same day as the Raptors, (along with Trail Blazers and Rockets which I'll talk about later), I won't have time to pick Lowry later. So now's the time. The Portland-Houston game is super important for me tomorrow. I've put a huge investment in the Blazers, and a Rockets win would be devastating. A 2-2 series might force me to go Aldridge. We'll see how it all plays out on Sunday!Tangenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09826659197813804563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-46834614332069197732014-04-26T21:51:31.946-07:002014-04-26T21:51:31.946-07:00Even better was to get a higher PRA than 9 higher ...Even better was to get a higher PRA than 9 higher percentage picked players... !!! #coldpick@topknoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181272162707786255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-85965927393238810942014-04-26T21:48:53.399-07:002014-04-26T21:48:53.399-07:00What a game....
