I know there are a lot more posters out there than participate in the traditional predictions game. As you may have noticed, this year there are two new options for the predictions game. You can participate in any of the three predictions game options. If you only want to participate in the starter/bench scoring game, make that the only prediction you post. The options are: Traditional Predictions Game - Predict the final score of the game Starter/Bench Scoring - Predict the number of points the Blazers starters will score vs. the number of points the Blazer bench will score Individual Contribution - predict who will have the greatest contribution in the game and what their total contribution amount will be. The contribution formula is Points + Rebounds + (Assists * 1.5) + (Blocks * 1.5) + (Steals * 2) - (Turnovers * 2). It should be noted, that half points are possible (4 points and 1 assist = 5.5 contribution points). Hopefully this will make watching the games and player performances even more interesting for predictions game players this year. As always, predictions must be posted prior to game start. Please keep all predictions, no matter what type, in the predictions thread. Thanks all. Gramps...
