The rules are simple. Post a caption to the given picture before tipoff on gameday. After the game the caption with the most likes wins for that game. You will receive 3 pts for winning and 2 points for posting a caption for a possible total of 5 points. The poster with the most points at the end of the season wins. You may post extra captions for fun. Only your first caption will count towards points. BONUS GAME: This is a bonus game. You can bet any amount of your accrued points on the bonus question. The bonus question pertains to the player or one of the players in the given caption contest picture. All bets must be in before tip off. If you choose to play the bonus question please include your answer and the amount of points bet along with your caption. BONUS QUESTION: Damian Lillard has averaged 23.5 points per game against the Nuggets this season, finishing with 25 points the 1st game and 22 points the 2nd game. He has scored at least 30 points in the last 7 games, averaging 34 points a game in the period of play. He finished with exactly 30 in two of those seven games. Lillard finished with 41 points against the Suns in the Blazers last game. The postseason is on the line. Does Lillard finish with over/under or exactly 30 points vs the Nuggets this time around?

I know that but don't we all play for fun? It just seems so strange to have the moderator play and be judge.

Congrats! See @SlyPokerDog for your prize.
The winner recieves a prize. If I ended with the most points I wouldn't really win because I am not really playing. As it is, I finished last. I don't play the over/under even for fun because I actually judge in that one (I determine best picture). The results of this contest are not determined by me, but by peers (likes) and the bonus question by statistical fact. Though I guess your right, it could seem strange. I just wanted to see how well I'd do if I was actually playing.
Dame Lillard is now my 180 favorite blazer of all time. That is how many points he cost me yesterday. I should have tweeted him I needed him to score 31. hahaha
