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

So... we're officially out of the playoffs... :confused:

And here, 3 of 7 predicted this L.

@LoungeLizard only missed the -11 margin by one point, and got a nice 62.
@Ron and @Telemachus shared the 2nd place with 46.

King of the Night

@LoungeLizard took the lead again,
with the 16th (and 3rd consecutive!!) nightly win.

King of the Month

The March race could not be any tighter!!!

One game to go, only ONE POINT separates
@Capt. Factorial and @LoungeLizard!!

Leader Board

No changes in the rankings,
but it DOES begin to seem as if @LoungeLizard's lead is insurmountable...

(Don't be fooled, though: with 6 games to go... IT'S NOT!)

Well, I thought that the back-to-back pair of games (on the road!)
is sure to hurt us...

...and I figured that the AT&T Center is not the place for surprises,
as the Spurs' home record is one of the best in the league (30-8!!)...

...and on top of it all, we were missing both Harry and Marvin...

Serves me right!! (Me and @Capt. Factorial)
I just loved having my prediction slapped hard by our Kings tonight. :cool:

The rest of us (5 KFs) fared MUCH better:

@Telemachus got as close to perfect as one can, nailing the +7 margin exactly,
and only missing each team's score by 1 point, to tally an astounding 90,
@LoungeLizard was seconds away from our first ever perfect 100 (never happened yet!)
but Forbes and Belinelli sabotaged that with 2 missed 3s in the last 15 seconds (see below)
and so he only nailed the Kings' score and got 66

@El Paljasso (52), @bubulina (51) and @VF21 (49) were next in line.

Official King of the Month (March)

@LoungeLizard who was trailing by 1 point in the monthly race behind @Capt. Factorial
took a leap to take the thrown by storm:

Leader Board

It looks like a done deal...

@LoungeLizard has just passed the 3,000 points mark,
which is the highest we ever had in a prediction season!
(@New Era won the game last season with 2,950.
@Telemachus won the previous year with 2,397.)

So... @LoungeLizard seems invincible...
but theoretically there's still a chance! :D

One more thing:
@Telemachus took the 3rd place from @bubulina.

State of affairs after game 78 (that baaaaad Rockets loss)


None of us had any thoughts of a possible loss,
So no high scores that night...

Actually - a historically bad prediction night across the board!

Only one single predictor has scored ANY points at all! :eek:

Fortunately that was... moi!:cool:
I was 1 point off the Rockets 130pt score, and got 10 points for the effort.
All the others scored a round, shiny ZERO.

Hi everyone!

First, @VF21 is right!
It's a back-to-back, and our boys are now rushing from Sactown to the salty plains of Utah
to play another game in the following evening... (18:00)
Don't miss tonight's prediction.

Three games before the season ends, many good predictions tonight!

We all knew we could take the Cavs, and some of us got pretty close:

@LoungeLizard came 1 point from the actual margin,
2 points from Kings' score, and​
3 points from Cavs' score, :) for a total of 70.​

@Capt. Factorial nailed the Kings' score and got 66.

@El Paljasso was also pretty close on all aspects, and got 58.
