LoungeLizard Prediction Game 2018-19: Hail the Lizard! Game over! See you next year!

Such optimists we are! :)
Only 1 L-prediction against a league leader.
It is genuinely a great sign, and a vote of confidence in our boys.

I, however, will spoil this strong front, I'm afraid...
Kings 103
Raotors 121
Somehow, the last 4 predictors, from this post onward, were all L-predictions.
And...
As it happens, these were also the 4 top scoring predictions of the night!
@LoungeLizard 62 pts
@Telemachus 60 pts
@chief bromden 53 pts
@Ron 48 pts

So...
The Kings have the same W-L record (7-5) as the Celtics - a current contender.
(Let's not count previous contenders like the Melo'ed-down Rockets... ;))

In the prediction game, we had 10 winners and only 1 Loser pessimist, in @chief bromden.

@El Paljasso got all parameters as close as 1 or 2 points and scored a beautiful 76.
@bubulina also got close with the margin and made 65.
@Capt. Factorial (58), @Ron (56), @LoungeLizard (56) were next behind.

Hurry up! It's a B-2-B, and a BIG game tomorrow night!

We host the locally-infamous Fakers! (Hereinafter - the LeBrons).

Think you know how it ends?

I checked to see how accurate was our average prediction in each game...

(Spoiler: not very accurate :)... but we did have a nice streak in games 5 to 8)

See for yourselves:

Sorry for taking so long... I had to stomach that L to the Ls...

For the 1st time this season - the Kings lose when our average prediction margin is positive.
So far, whenever we predicted a W (on average) the Kings always won.
(They even surprised us and won once despite our L-predictions, in the OKC game)

But not only did we predict a win ON AVERAGE - we ALL predicted a win UNANIMOUSLY...

Strangely enough, the only player who ALWAYS predicts only losses, @chief bromden,
went missing tonight, just when he could score big time! ;)

And so - only 3 KFs scored any points at all tonight, and those few were all nickles and dimes...

Does it even count?
Well technically it does, so @burekijogurt get's the "title" tonight.
