    TRY YOUR BEST AT PREDICTING THE PLAYOFFS! HERE'S HOW IT GOES:

    -State the winner of each series, the number of games it takes, and which games that teams wins and loses (if the series is 5 games or longer).
    EX: Blazers in 6 (W L W W L W), Spurs in 5 (W W L W W), etc.

    -We'll predict it round by round, and I will have updated standings after each round.

    SCORING:
    1st Round:

    Correct Pick: 3 Points+Seed
    Correct Pick+Correct # of Games: 3 Additional Points

    2nd Round:
    Correct Pick: 5 Points+Seed
    Correct Pick+Correct # of Games: 5 Additional Points

    Conference Finals:
    Correct Pick: 7 Points+Seed
    Correct Pick+Correct # of Games: 7 Additional Points

    NBA Finals:
    Correct Pick: 10 Points+Seed
    Correct Pick+Correct # of Games: 10 Additional Points

    Bonus Points: For correctly predicting the win pattern of the winning team, you'll get the following bonus points:
    5 Game Series: 3 Points
    6 Game Series: 6 Points
    7 Game Series: 10 Points

    Here's the first round matchups:


    WEST:
    (1) Warriors vs. (8) Blazers
    (4) Clippers vs. (5) Jazz
    (3) Rockets vs. (6) Thunder
    (2) Spurs vs. (7) Grizzlies

    EAST:
    (1) Celtics vs. (8) Bulls
    (4) Wizards vs. (5) Hawks
    (3) Raptors vs. (6) Bucks
    (2) Cavaliers vs. (7) Pacers

    Blazers will be stumped by the refs so the Warriors can sell more #30 and #35 jerseys and stinkin $40 hats.

    Abridged Version
    GS 4-2 = GS in 6 (and so forth)
    Jazz 4-3
    Thunder 4-2
    Spurs 4-0

    Boston 4-1
    Wizards 4-1
    Toronto 4-3
    Cleveland 4-0
