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

Am I truly the ONLY ONE who predicted a loss against the champions? :eek:
(And was very close to being the only non-homey fool...)

As it turned out in the last 5 seconds I was the only "lucky" KF in this... :mad:

@rosa u podne was extremely accurate for a mis-prediction (119-117 vs 116-117)
and took home one of the highest scores ever for for a mis-prediction - 26 points.

@bubulina was also very close, and got 19.

King of the Night

Moi, naturally (being the sole L-predictor).
This was my 3rd time this season

King of November

This one is far from decided,
but with only 2 more games this month...
we need to do a lot and make our move soon
if we want to oust our leader, @rosa u podne.

Leader-Board

Only very small changes in the overall picture...

We ALL predicted it's gonna be a W.

Well... It wasn't. Not even close.

A side note:
Tonight was the very first time that @chief bromden predicted a W this season!
(But perhaps the exclamation mark should not have been used here, though... :rolleyes:)

@bubulina was REALLY close to the final result of 112-133, with a prediction of 133-111...
But with the roles of the winning side reversed... :(

@LoungeLizard and @Tetsujin were at least close enough to Kings' 112 to score in double-digits.
(Still a miserable 10 though...)


Summary

King of the Night

They would both probably see nothing "royal" in that crown this time,
but @LoungeLizard and @Tetsujin led the sorry parade tonight anyhow.

They are both quite consistent in that feat, too,
as it was @LoungeLizard's 5 time this season and @Tetsujin's 4th.

King of November

One game before the monthly leader-board is decided,
@rosa u podne still leads the pack, but with a fragile margin
that can easily be wiped out in that last prediction...

Can you take it from her, @LoungeLizard ?

Leader-Board

Boring. Absolutely no change in ranking across the board.
(That's what we get when we group-think... ;))

We're hosting the current leader of the Western Conference, no less!

But somehow that's the Clippers! o_O

And for the visitors it will be the tail-end of a back-to-back, straight after
they meet the weakest link in the Western Conference so far - the Suns...

Think you know how it's gonna end?

A fan's got to do what a fan's got to do...

A short reminder of the scoring system:
You can total as much as 100 points for one prediction:
1. You get 40 pts for predicting the winner.
2. You get up to 30 pts for predicting the point difference of the game (directional difference! +10 is not the same as -10!)
3. You get up to 15 pts for predicting the total score of each of the teams (30 pts for both teams together)
Here's a chart to sum it all up: View attachment 5791
