2/22 - Celtics @ Heat (+6.0)
The Heat are at home and getting points, easy pick here.
2/23 - Kings @ Bucks: Total Over/Under 210
Kings have been on a scoring tear as of late and the Bucks well are the Bucks
2/27 - Nets @ Hawks: Total Over/Under 205
Last game went for 217
2/28 - Knicks @ Raptors: Total Over/Under 185
Anemic offenses unite
3/2 - Warriors @ Magic (+4.0)
One man....One word....KEMP
3/4 - Jazz @ Grizzlies: Total Over/Under 190
I have a feeling about this one
3/4 - Kings @ Sonics: Pick EM!
Sonics are playing some good ball at home
3/6 - Bulls @ Pacers: Pick Em!
The Bulls are 11-9 in their last 20 and the Pacers are 4-16 in their last 20

2/22 - Celtics @ Heat (+6.0)
Celtics should hande this by double digits.
2/23 - Kings @ Bucks: Total Over/Under 210
Just a hunch, think both team's offenses come out hot.
2/27 - Nets @ Hawks: Total Over/Under 205
Defenses prevail in this matchup.
2/28 - Knicks @ Raptors: Total Over/Under 185
Who's gonna score?
3/2 - Warriors @ Magic (+4.0)
I think Bowen may have some trouble guarding Kemp.
3/4 - Jazz @ Grizzlies: Total Over/Under 190
No idea why.
3/4 - Kings @ Sonics: Pick EM!
Kings are on a tear!
3/6 - Bulls @ Pacers: Pick Em!
Hate picking myself but we won the last matchup with them in their house.

2/22 - Celtics @ Heat (+6.0)
I think the Heat have finally started to put it together this year. I think they win straight up.
2/23 - Kings @ Bucks: Total Over/Under 210
Two teams that lock down defensively and score enough to cover. I don't expect this to reach 200 much less 210.
2/27 - Nets @ Hawks: Total Over/Under 205
Again, this is another defensive matchup. I think this one stays under 200 as well.
2/28 - Knicks @ Raptors: Total Over/Under 185
History shows this should come right up to 185, but I think it leans towards the under, more than over.
3/2 - Warriors @ Magic (+4.0)
Warriors have the defense on the perimeter to lock down the Magic's main options. The Magic have no one down low.
3/4 - Jazz @ Grizzlies: Total Over/Under 190
This is another one I think comes right up to the 190 prediction. But based on the history between these two, this should stay under.
3/4 - Kings @ Sonics: Pick EM!
Kings, in my opinion, are one of the 3 best teams in the league. I think they show out, even on the road.
3/6 - Bulls @ Pacers: Pick Em!
Toss up. Bulls terrible on road, Pacers just straight up terrible. I think the Bulls grab this one though.

Aww it's not Nick's fault if the Midwest can only get a couple of active GMs to participate.

I've picked everyone from the divisions to do it. Darth has had the most success after picking up when he wasn't really supposed to be picked and others backed out when they said they couldn't do it or were picked and just no showed. I've charted who's done it and the results each time it's been done. Would you like to go next Ryan or would you not have the time to do it? I try to get these up and updated as soon as it's done/have the time to do so and before each sim. |

In turn if I'm not watching it like a hawk the Midwest gets fucked. Maybe that's my fault in not getting confirmations before hand but I also 95% of the time try to tag people for notifications so they know it AND send out PM's to those that get tagged of what games they have. I've left it up to the parties that were chosen and if they can't do it to find a division replacement. It's all because of Chad really that the Mid West has climbed back in it to make it a closer race between the Mid West and Central this year. Also to change it up, I noted that the division that won it at the end of the season would get the chance to collect their +10 Points winnings as added incentives. For the most part, this has been a big success. Sorry if it doesn't meet your subjective standards Ryan. |

I'll be overseeing the rules next year, whoever can run it can run it, but I want there to be penalties or no rewards at the very least for the lazy fuckers. I know stuff comes up but this literally takes 2 minutes. No excuses. Midwest I am very disappoint.

The time I was tagged and PMd, it was two hours before the deadline. I refused to do it on principle. I need much more notice than that. Thanks to Darth for covering for me.

I didn't have any time to do it over the weekend and get it up before I was able to get to a computer that day. I'll always try to have it be at least 12-24 hours notice from here on out. |

I know how tough it is to coordinate and run this shit and how aggravating it is to babysit GMs that refuse to participate. I've gone out of my way to tell Nick he's doing a good job with this on here and on Skerp plenty of times |

Nuggets games and Mavericks games will be added to the next sim pick em's. Just gotta find some interesting ones out there. I've been trying to not make it so focused on one team or conference focused and spread out to EVERY Team no matter how bad the match-up could be. Always could be spiced up with a line or over/under no matter how ridiculous it may be and I guarantee one pick em match up will be player stat-centric.

I know it's hard to guess which Mavs games won't be a blowout since most are but I have faith in you. |

Nick you're doing a great job. The one suggestion is the one person not doing it over and over though. If someone's good at it and the rest of the divisions have to go through all of their guys, it's not fair for that one division to get their best "picker" to constantly do it. If the division misses, they miss and thats part of the pick em. We lost a pickem because of that 2 seasons ago and i believe the Midwest lost last year because of that. If the divisions want to win, put it on their fellow division mates to inform them. I don't think you should have to run the pick'em and be the baby sitter. Ryan couldnt keep up with being a baby sitter. Doug couldn't keep up with being a baby sitter, and you shouldn't have to either. Let the respective division mates baby sit. Also, i thought we implemented a rule as i stated earlier where 1 person can't pick over a set amount of times or keep all things equal?
