Yup. You are not predicting how many points they will score, but their total contribution points. Contribution points are calculated as follows: Points + Rebounds + (Assists * 1.5) + (Blocks * 1.5) + (Steals * 2) - (Turnovers *2). If I read it correctly Lillard had the following: 37 points 5 rebounds 7 assists 3 steals 1 block 5 turnovers 37 + 5 + 10.5 + 6 + 1.5 - 10 = 50 contribution points. Gramps...
The rules for the contributor rankings have been provided for a while and we did a test run in the preseason. I always just add roughly ten to what I think the persons point total will be to get my total number.
Okay. I just didn't understand so I will no longer be participating in that part of the game anymore.
It is just a crap shoot taking a guess for it. I don't put much thought into it, just something else to feel like a loser about or feel superior to others about..haha.
