Every guy I've picked since has had their worst game of the post season on the day I picked them. For example I had Harden on his 19 pt game. I took Parsens yesterday based on his consistent improvement and steady play only to have him drop an egg and today picked Lopez (currently at 21 - his lowest game so far). To add to this I went with Smith the game Horford put up a career best and unfortunately guess right that Monta Ellis would have a huge game against Miami, but picked the game he only had 13.<br /><br />The plus is in the close series I still have:<br /><br />MEM-LA<br />Only used Marc Gasol<br /><br />BOS-NY<br />Still have Garnett and all of NY<br /><br />OKC-HOU<br />Used Harden and Parsons. <br /><br />IND-ATL<br />Used Smith.<br /><br />BROOKLYN-CHI<br />Used Boozer and Lopez.<br /><br />I'm a Celtics fan so I'm taking CP3 tomorrow just in case so I don't pass the curse on to Garnett. <br /><br />With 363 total points through tonight I have A LOT of ground to make up.<br /> Sedahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16581495983098180836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-23079840603168873272013-05-02T19:48:52.214-07:002013-05-02T19:48:52.214-07:00Picked Marc, Z bo remains.

Worst case scenario for you in the 2nd round is you only picked one player from the team(s) that won round 1. Pick CP3. If they go game 7, just pick from the other game 7s on that date.Taong Gagambahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05172021582832968662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-83600268926450579532013-05-02T12:51:10.211-07:002013-05-02T12:51:10.211-07:00Hey Taong, I have read your blog through the durat...Hey Taong, I have read your blog through the duration of the playoffs this year. I have never commented and this is my first year playing this game. Hopefully you can provide some insight to my own dilemma.<br /><br />MEM-LAC<br />I picked Gasol for the Griz but no Clippers.<br /><br />BOS-NYK<br />I picked Pierce for the C's but no Knicks<br /><br />OKC-HOU<br />I picked Harden still have Parsons and all Thunder players.<br /><br />IND-ATL<br />I only picked Teague, still have everyone to choose from.<br /><br />I am an inexpierienced player so I'm not sure what to do.

KG, Green remains.<br />Picked Harden. Parsons remains.<br /><br />I can pass on Parsons, Green and maybe KG too. But i have 2 match to try top pick an Hawks and CP3; I think that i'm goin to pick CP3 (no way I can risk to not pick him), and remain with a Hawks for game 7. If Atlanta lose, I'll go with KG or Parson (depends who reach game 7).<br />In case CP3 reach game 7, i hope that playing at home can carry Clips to a win, and I'll pick ZBo.<br /><br />Any suggestion, or this sounds "good" for my situation?<br /><br />(sry again for english, italian reader here)MD893https://www.blogger.com/profile/09769305656497437162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-22644071931745545702013-05-02T07:33:37.172-07:002013-05-02T07:33:37.172-07:00Haha, I know that situation.

...Haha, I know that situation. To copy and correct:<br /><br />For myself,<br />Picked Z-Bo, Marc. None from Clippers.<br />Picked Horford, Teague. Josh remains.<br />Picked Garnett, Pierce. Everybody else remains.<br />Picked Harden. Everybody else remains.<br /><br />How come we both picked mostly the same players yet you are about 100 points above me? Sigh.<br /><br />And while I would love to pick Smith at home I have to pick Paul, just like everybody else.<br /><br />By the way, I love the Celtics. Pierce and Garnett are about the only players that didn´t totally disappoint me. <br /><br />So, the big question is not, who might reach game 7 (best chances for all teams playing at home, meaning every team except the Clippers, which is another reason to pick Paul), but who might be able to be the one team that turns a 0-3 in a series win? <br /><br />Big chances for the Celtics and the Rockets, as I picked their studs and none of their opponents. And yes, I do believe that I have the power to write history just by picking the wrong players. Eemeber that guy Harden? He had 28, 53, 44, 19, 42. Guess which game I got?<br />Or how about Randolph? 18, 21, 40, 35, 37. I had him before he started to show up. <br />Or Marc Gasol? 25, 26, 26, 41, 33. Started to light up after I had picked him.<br />Or Pau Gasol? 38, 26, 34, 29. Mine was the 26.<br />Or Curry? Had him on day 1 for 32, then he went and had 48, 46, 41.<br />Or Horford? 23, 28, 43, 27, 25. I had him for 23.<br />Or Monta Ellis? Started with 29, finished with 34, I got 16 out of him.<br /><br />I kind of see why I am so much behind everybody else...<br /><br />Alex Hergeshttp://www.donald.orgnoreply@blogger.com
