Friends in fast breaks,

Shooting the three has revolutionized the game in the last decade. And if you hit this three (week window), you could change your year! Three weeks left in the regular SZN to make your mark, three weeks to pull out all the stops.

The Points OAD leader is only up 30 points. Our Survivor Pools are in multi-pick mode and could end at any point. The All 30 and Weekly Pick'em both have ties at the top. There's no telling who will win it all - Nothing better than an unpredictable finish!

RESULTS SUMMARY

Points One-And-Done

J. Green continued his hot streak, posting 41 on UTA. This surge is part of his recent streak of 9/12 game with 23+ points (and four straight games with look-away 3-pointers).

Second spot this week goes to Green's teammate, F. VanVleet, who was 10/15 from three in the same game, putting up 34 points. And nobody picked him!

So our best possible weekly performance was 75 points. Obviously this combo was even more unlikely than normal, as who was banking on the HOU backcourt doing that? @Gaucho managed to snag our weekly high of 73 points though with J. Green and D. Booker. 

Wembanyama was our top pick (64 pickers), and he scored 31 points. Finally, a week where our top pick was GOOD. It's been a while. Thanks rook!

We scored 21.4 points per pick, only so low down due to the surge in DNPs this week. If we hadn't gotten short changed there, we'd have had a killer week.

For DNPs, 13 pickable players from our roster didn't play. This includes late scratches from big picks like D. Bane, J. Murray, L. Markkanen, and L. Ball. This caused 46 Double DNPs, resulting in zero points. Just devastating. As always - Double check the injury report (linked on the pick page) on Thursday or Friday to make sure your picks aren't out. We leave a note on known injured players during the week and remove players with longer-term injuries to try and help prevent this issue, but you have to take control of your destiny here.

Overall Standings Check In - @aphanson7 still has the lead at 1,133 points. Only a couple weeks left, and 20th place (our final prize) is at 1,068 points.

Interval 3 Check In - @Jp2099 is in the lead with 318. Interval 3 runs through the end of the regular SZN, let's see who finishes strongest.

Squads Check In - Basket-Balling with Nigel is in the lead with 3,114 points.

Survivor #1

There were 5 incorrect picks this week, resulting in 5 eliminations. We had a 68.8% win rate. We lost 1.5% of the Pool in the process. We now stand at 0.9% remaining.

Overall Standings Check In - We're officially down to the final 3! Everyone has missed on pick, so any miss is elimination. Remember that when it comes to tiebreakers, more correct picks in a week is better!

Squads Check In - DFS Sweatshop holds the lead with 42 wins. I think they've officially taken the prize, as I don't think they can be caught.

All 30 One-And-Done

We had a solid week at a 73.5% win rate. We went 15-10 on our teams picked. Our top pick of SAS lost, but our next top 7 picks all hit.

Overall Standings Check In - @aphanson7 caught up to @NEELERSBTB1 last week, and now they're both at the top with 23 wins. 7 picks to find a champ!

Squads Check In - Basket-Balling with Nigel is in the lead with 52 wins. 

Survivor #2

There were 14 incorrect picks this week, leading to 8 eliminations. We lost 3.3% of the Pool after a 88.6% win rate. 

Overall Standings Check In - There are 33 players alive, 5 with no mistakes and 28 with one mistake. Every pick matters! Hello QUADRUPLE PICKS!

Squads Check In - Basket-Balling with Nigel is the leader with 41 wins.

Weekly Pick'em

We had another strong week with a 72.4% win rate. That averages out to 11.6 correct picks out of 16 games.

Our biggest miss was IND @ GSW, where 22.8% of us got it right GSW to win. And with 16 games, no one managed to go perfect. Still no perfect week for us this SZN.

Congrats to @mattgic19 and @rgb who went 15/16 this week. They'll split the weekly prize!

Overall Standings Check In - The top is still tied up. @ETB2090, @aphanson7, @RDH24, and @Demartin1015 are all at 113 wins. 3 weeks left!

Squads Check In - WITS Legends - NBA is in first with 316 wins.  

Yours in Roundball Rock,
The GM
