Telemachus Prediction Game 2016-17: (Prediction-) Game Over!! See You in a New Thread Next Season
- Thread starter Ron
- Start date
A nice W!!
Daily rankings
@Telemachus & @Ron both nailed the margin (17),
with the former missing each team's score by just 1 point (!!)
and the latter missing those scores by 3 points...
@Telemachus's prediction was good for a shiny 90 and a 2nd daily win,
whereas @Ron (78) is still looking for his first daily leader spot.
@Suicide King missed the margin by 1 to take 3rd place (62).
@KingsFanSince85 was one of the rare breed who predicted a loss,
but he got the Nets' score (105) dead-on!
Season Overall Race
The only change in the overall leaderboard was @lwc
dropping a little behind at #2, due to another no-show...

This is a landmine game!
The Wizards are not as bad as their record suggests.
Just 2 days ago they killed the Magic (on the road) early in the game by forcing 8 TOs in the 1st Q!!
They are 2nd in the NBA in second chance points per game (16.3).
They've already beaten the Hawks, the Celtics & the Knicks at home, and we are on the road back-to-back...
We should really be carefull and serious about this one, or it hits us like a Wall (or a Gortat, which may prove more painfull...)
I will force myself to stay optimistic...
Kings 109
Wizards 105

Tonight's points
@LoungeLizard had a great prediction and secured his 3rd daily win.
@KingsFanSince85 also got the loss right.
The rest of us were really far off the mark, not anticipating the low scores,
(Predictions would looked worse if it hadn't been for the OT)
Season-long race
No changes whatsoever on the leaderboard of the season race.
(Except @LoungeLizard's leap into 7th place)

Hi everyone!
Last night was a heart-breaker. Made me so angry...
I will probably remain pissed off for a month or so!
But that's no excuse for slacking...
A fan's gotta do what a fan's gotta do!

I really feel uneasy about this one...
First, the Sixers are 4-7 in their last 11
(would have been 5-6 had they not lost that double-OT vs MEM)
Second, Stauskas is "beasting" with double-figures in the last 11 games,
making 50% of his threes
(And you know how hard we make it on our opponents to shoot 3-pointers...)
Then there's Ilyasova, who has really helped Phily since he got there,
and now the injury reports give Bayless a "probable" for tonight (!)
and they've got Embiid, Covington, Rodrigez, Okafor, Saric...
But mostly it's ALL about whether OUR guys take the game seriously.
If we expect a stroll in the park and/or play down to THEIR level,
we may actually lose this one.
Having said all that:
Kings - 113
Sixers - 97
