Congratulations to cdub503, the winner of the 2009-2010 Western Conference Prediction game. He/she correctly placed 4 teams in their proper seeds, while naming 7 of the 8 total WC playoff teams. Tied for second place were BeerBoy and Jazzfan876. The team most likely to be put in their proper seed: Lakers, followed by Nuggets. No one had the Suns in their correct seed. Lottery team most likely to be incorrectly predicted as a playoff team: Hornets, followed by Rockets. cdub503, please PM me, I will need your snail mail addy to send you your prize. Thanks to all who participated. I am tyiping on a laptop not my own with a small screen I can't see so please forgive any typos.
He named Lakers, Nuggets, Jazz and Thunder in their correct seed. He predicted those four, plus Blazers, Suns, and Mavs, as WC playoff teams. Total score, 11 (2 points for each correct seed, 1 for each additional playoff team). The runners up each got 10 points. So either he knows more than you think or he's a very lucky guesser. Or has a really good crystal ball.
I feel good about my showing--9 points, but I had 3 of the 4 first round matchups correct (just in the wrong places).
