NBA Playoff Pick ‘Em: NBA Finals

By KC Downey in Celtics, Featured ⋅ June 5, 2008 at 6:27pm ⋅ Post a comment

It’s now a three-horse race with KC, Geoff, and Pete all tied at 12-2 heading into the NBA Finals. Jeff is one game back at 11-3 so it’s not over yet for him either.

Four of us thought the Pistons would beat the Celtics…and boy were we wrong!

and…we have a traitor. Someone actually picked the Lakers in the NBA Finals!??!!? (see below)

Instead of picking just one winner of the series, we will be picking from a few things. First, who will win the NBA Finals and in how many games will it happen? The next three will be tiebreakers…Who will be the NBA Finals MVP? What will be the final score of the final game? If neither one breaks the tie, it will be the total points scored in the final game (add up the final score to get the total). This will, once and for all, decide who is the blogger with the most basketball knowledge (for this year at least).
