Deadline for Picks is tipoff time or 5 PM -- whichever is earlier
Note: If you pick a West Coast game that starts after 10PM EST, chances are the standings won't be published until the following day.
Please check & make sure your pick is included in the summary after the deadline.​

The competition is pretty simple but please check The Rules if you have any questions or aren't sure how to proceed. Also, please note that you must make a pick at least once every three weeks to remain in the competition. There's more in an Announcement about when we will shift to two divisions, etc. You can also send me a Personal Message or e-mail if any questions or problems.

Please use the colon after your moniker ... I use a macro to enter your picks on a spreadsheet and the macro relies on the colon to get it properly entered.

Here are the games and spreads:
