Will this team's superstar be neglected like in the previous two questions?

Krayzie

Well this doesn't look good

Two answers left, and they were picked by the top four contenders--rocket1312, Kal Varnsen, Krayzie, and Pharoh. Kal is the closest to rocket at 8 points behind. Can he make it up?

The Cow

Thanks for running this davidh777, fun as always (even though I still suck at these games).

Congrats to rocket1312 and thanks to David. I really sucked lemons at this game. At least JasonF didn't play and score higher than me.

Final standings--appropriate that rocket1312 should close it out on a Rockets question (even if he is a Bulls fan). Thanks to everyone for playing!

LurkerDan

Congrats rocket and thanks david for a fun game!

Did I at least beat all the Lakers fans?

Krayzie

Thanks for the game! Congrats rocket!

feenst

Congratulations rocket. Great game David.

sleepyhead55

Congrats to rocket1312 for winning! And davidh777 for running a great sheep game!

Howie2000

Congrats Rocket

Was a fun game David thanks.

fumanstan

That was a fun game, I liked the basketball discussion throughout.

I'm not clutch and choked down the stretch

davidh777

Just wanted to thank everyone who pointed out and put up with my excel issues at the start of the second half today. It really does help rather than having to go back much later. I finished my pre-scoring last night thinking Kal had won, so at least it wasn't that far off.

I also learned more about SMing. I had patterned some of this game after my NCAA game, but they're two different animals and it's something to keep in mind if I run either one again.

And definitely fewer Reverses.

Take a look!

fumanstan

I thought you did a great job running the game.

Decker

Fun game David! Congrats to rocket. I really stunk up the second day, but still enjoyed it. Thanks to all.


Go Lakers!

LurkerDan

Yes! I beat all the lakers fans!

I'll call that a moral victory.

LurkerDan

And let's all have a moment of silence for the elephant in the room, or is that sheep in the room: arpeggi. Surely he would have beaten us all had he been here to play.

fumanstan

I can't believe bootsy didn't play

Tarantino

I bootsy'd the fuck out of that last {sd}

davidh777

Thanks, Obama!

Pharoh

Thanks David!

And congrats Rocket! You nailed the reverses when needed. Well played.

Damfino

Thanks David and congrats to rocket!

I did remarkably well considering that I am only a casual NBA fan, but I am a Laker fan, so I at least knew enough not to embarrass myself with another last place finish.

rocket1312

Finally got to catch up with the last question. I feel like a pretty big jerk for ranting about the reverse questions and how they reward dumb luck, only to have a unique on one of the reverses end up being the difference in the game. So thanks again David. I appreciate how even despite the scoring problems you were able to keep moving along and not have to drag this thing out for a week. That's the sign of a quality sheepmaster. Looking forward to the next one!
