Well I heard some pretty staggering stat today, sorry I can't remember it exactly but it said the team that wins game 1 in the series goes on to win the series most of the time. It was an impressive number but I don't want to make shit up, so I'll leave it at that.

We over at the SeeBS Lakers team boards had a game thread up for every game. I would love to see the multitude of posters from those boards join us here. We have a few in the way of bluepigpen, cl67, retroram, trojanfan12, silas, truelakersfan and others that I've may have left off, so please forgive me if I left you out who are already on here however a few of these dudes weren't regulars on the game threads.

In these game threads of course we posted during the game, it would be great if some of you guys here would enjoy doing that for the series with the Spurs, hornstampe of course you can join us. Furthermore our threads over there were always stared with a prediction of the impending game. We had a year long contest where we predicted the score to every game. We would split the season and in two halves (41 games / 41 games). Out of 20 or so, I was fortunate enough to win the first half of the contest and I was to go into the second half. We all knew that Sman was going to take the second half and maybe he shows up and makes a prediction and maybe I'll find it and re-post his prediction here. Either way the two winners of the first and second halves of the season would go into a playoff to see who would be the Prediction King for the 2012-2013 season. So I will start off with that...

98 Lakers
96 Spurs

We had a point system and next season I will share the rules so we can all enjoy the little Point prediction contest here if y'all want to participate.

Anyway for now we can just enjoy the game together here and discuss the game as it happens.

GO LAKERS! :suds:

I've heard rumors of Jordan Hill coming back soon. Anybody know if he is going to play today? It'd be great if he could give D12 some relief....

Feels like a Laker victory today! Will Blake step it up 3 games in a row? D12 20-15 and 5 blocks, Pau a near trip-dub. GO LAKERS!
Lakers 101
Spurs 93

I have a good feeling about the game today, really don't know why though. The Spurs will move the ball by passing better than anyone else and the Lakers have not shown the type of dedication to defense to stop the pick and roll. That being said, if they work on stopping penetration they could pull off the upset.:2cents:

Lakers 94

Spurs 91

Since I am pretty much done with the road, I'll rejoin the prediction game. Lakers 97, SA 94.
Vita, nice choice in avis-Jack Snow. That fits your playing days at WR as a TE. I was getting little tired of Miss Volleyball anyways.

Sman dude!!!! It is good to see you made it here from asswipe SeeBS! I am assuming you took the second half prediction scoring and now it is the predictoff with you and Vita. Is anyone else on the way like wlkwlk, Kold, dpwtv, etc.,? I know Jefe, Blue, and Louie are here. Well, we shall see which one of you take the crown and if the Lakers can continue on.

Hey Sman! :welcome:

Guys the way we previously worked this was to PM DP so there would be no cherry picking going on in the playoffs.

With DP yet to show up over here, would one of you be willing to take the PM's and post them once the game starts?

In all fairness Sman you should post your score for game 2 first and we can PM whoever volunteers to help out from Game 3. In all honesty, we may show a little bravado and say Lakers in 5 or 6 but as the lower seed 2 usually beats 7 and it even could be a sweep. So this King of Predictions may only be as little as a four game stretch.

That said Sman, you need to get your post count up well beyond the 50 count mark so you can send PM and view your profile.

Here is a thread to help you get there...
http://www.sportshoopla.com/forums/detroit-lions/97092-testing-something-new-posters.html

Also besides settling the contest from the SeeBS site between Sman and myself, I think all who want to predict scores, should do so and that can be our Sportshoopla post season contest.

I'll keep track of the scores but for now I will need to list the rules at a later time, if someone else wants to give it a crack, that would be great!

Cheers!

Nash is going to play. I don't know if that is going to make a difference. They should stay with Blake and Meeks to start.

What the hell is Gasol shooting at the top of the key jump shot and then not playing D on Duncan at the other end. Hopefully that'll change.

This sucks. We are all starting off slow and SA looks hot early.
