Game Challenges

1. Correctly predicting which team wins the game is worth 1 TP.

2. (from Wallyworld) The Rambis-a-thon challenge: Guess the combined points scored by Montiejunas and Chandler Parsons, 2 players who the Wolves held on draft night 2011 and traded for cash to buyout Kurk "Darrell Rhombus" Rambis. 2 TPs for guessing, 1 for closest.

3. (from Tod Murphy) Predict which team wins (outscores other team) each of the four quarters. Ties: If both teams score the same amount of points in a quarter, it eliminates that quarter from the challenge.

Correctly pick:
1 quarter winner = 1 TP
2 quarter winners = 2 TPs
3 quarter winners = 3 TPs
All 4 quarter winners = 5 TPs

4. Create a game challenge for the Wolves game against the Pelicans on 3/17. If your challenge is used, you will get a TP.

Reminder: Only 3 games left in the Timberpup regular season!

Announcement: The playoffs will now start on 3/22 vs the Suns. The game against the Kings on 3/21 will be an off game and used to solve any tiebreakers. I'm moving everything up by one game so that each round of the playoffs coincides with the Wolves back-to-backs. The semifinal round will now be 3 games, as well as the finals. Also I'm officially conceding my spot in the playoffs because I just like to run the game anyways.

And I wanted to give you my TPs for the #1 seed as an appreciation gift for running the game challenges!!! Oh well, too late for that...but a HOWL as a thanks for keeping it going, even as the team was killing our spirit to follow them!

Just an idea from the "gambling option" thing I put in the last game post...

Do you think besides the normal 3 game challenges for these last 3 games, we could also add a gambling option? We'd have to come up with something that makes sense to bet on.

Bonk, you are checking out the lines for games, maybe you would be the one to set the gambling challenge???

Then it would be an option for anyone to put up some TPs, say 5 of your TPs. Make your prediction and if correct, you add 5 to your total. If incorrect, you lose those off your total. That would make it a 10 point swing. If that seems like it is more of a swing than what we would want to see in the standings at the end, we could make the bet 3 TPs.

Thoughts?

It's sad. Now I have no real rival. Roundhouse was the only one who could beat me.

Parsons and Moteijunas are solid players. Lawson is playing great this season. Really sad how players that the Wolves gave away for basicaly nothing are better then the Flynns and Johnsons they drafted with high picks.

Ummmmmm.... 2 time defending champ here.

Hi,

In the last game I get carried away by emotion and set aside the reality. I hope do not happen again. Today I do not think the Wolves Beat Rockets on NBA TV will much less in their court.
Harden in doubt tonight, but with him or without the Rockets beat the Wolves. Adelman knows his former team, but does not have sufficient resources to achieve victory.

I hope Ricky continue their good run and cross my fingers that does not get hurt in any way and can finish the season healthy and continue with great expectations for the next. Who hates Ricky?.

Good but returning to the game. Hopefully I'm wrong in my prediction again and make me look bad again. lol

I hope Ricky has a good game as I said , should also Dante and C. Johnson have a great and make good game as I sense then it will be a close game. Who knows.
 
Barea will continue in their same routine. Not far beyond and far from here. Bone that he will be Taking Care to avoid injury in the remainder of the season.

Ridnour. God, I hope that today will be another day that decide to come and play hard. You know what I mean. (When he wants)

D. William, good to see him playing his best basketball and I hope that today will be another Double, Double for. 23 Points, 12 Reb. (Wow tremendous expectations ahhhhhh!)

Hopefully other player step up and surprise us.

So this should end

1- Rockets 111 Wolves 99

All will continue . . .
