NBA 2016-17 PEEHS - Page 7 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Just 2 questions, the 10 assists and the 30 point scorer.

Gus's answer for the 15+ rebounder hasn't gone over yet

For karma, he thinks Philly will make the playoffs as a 5-8 seed, so I think it all balances out

in b4 Philly finishes 8th in the East.

Also, I forgot I actually entered this, and did it knowing not much aside from the most casual of casual fanning, so I am very happy to be winning in second place right now.

Kicking us off, it's our ol' pal trollface! He selected Sonny Weems, who apparently is a shooting guard for the 76ers. Once again, trollface keeps his impressive streak of choosing a player who a) "IS an active NBA player," and b) "has yet to play a minute in a game" alive!

All our remaining incorrects are would-be aces. Our next incorrect is Blake Griffin. He's averaging 20.2 points per game, and posted a game with 28 points, but never got to 30.

Our final incorrect is a very good player who's seen his usage decline this season. Klay Thompson, one of the best shooters in the league, is now the 4th-most dangerous weapon on his own team. He has a game with 28 points, but none with 30+.

Question 3 closes with an astounding TEN aces. I'll post them in order from "least face-melty" to "most face-melty."

Kicking us off is Russell Westbrook. He qualified 5 times for this question, and holds the highest single-game total of the season thus far. He has games of 51, 36, 35, 33, and 33 points.

Next up is the reigning MVP. Stephen Curry qualified twice, with games of 46 and 33 points. He scored 39 points just on 3-pointers for his record-setting 13 3's game.
