NHL & NBA Playoffs Assignment
11:26 PM ET on 4/24/12 by Jay Soester
I'm looking for some help on an NHL & NBA Playoffs Assignment that's designed to help me test things out before setting up an NHL and/or NBA Playoffs Fantasy Game on the league website as soon as possible. The first draft for the assignment took place on April 12th, a day after the NHL playoffs began. I'm looking for at least six members to help me set up a draft prior to the NBA playoffs beginning and prior to the NHL's second round starting.

You can participate by sending a list of at least 60 (NBA) or 108 (NHL) players (making sure to account for any players that haven't been guaranteed of being in the playoffs or next round yet) or by replying with a draft time that works for you. While I'm not optimistic that my schedule will work to sort out a live draft in the next few days, I'm hopeful six other members can pair up at a given time. I'll also need help setting up a basketball excel file similar to the one for the NHL game that has relevant player stats for all players that can be drafted. Giving a list and/or participating in a live draft is worth at least 3 BP while helping with the file can be worth five or more.

For more information please read the first post of the thread and the most recent. If you have any questions, please reply to the thread.

NBA Playoffs Pickem Results
11:54 PM ET on 6/12/11 by Jay Soester
This was just the third time since the NBA expanded its postseason format to eight teams from each conference in the 1983-84 season that the NBA postseason finished before the NHL postseason, excluding strike-infuenced seasons. If the Canucks win game six on Monday, the ending dates of the two postseasons will match those of 2002, the last time the NBA finished first.

With that bit of trivia out of the way, I can congratulate Skip Wilson for winning the 2010-2011 edition of NBA Playoffs Pickem with 43 points. He finished three points ahead of Kraig Monkman, who was the only member to correctly pick the Mavericks to win the championship. Mike Brekke (35), Tim Schneider (35) and Javier Martinez (33) rounded out the top five.

Mike Miles finished in 15th place for three championship points to gain three more points on Anders Nilsson after he finished in 32nd place. Miles now holds a 640-628 advantage with NHL Playoffs Pickem, NHL Standings Pickem and overall Standings Pickem & overall Playoffs Pickem remaining.

The Finals Are Set
6:32 PM ET on 5/30/11 by Jay Soester
The Eastern Conference Finals wrapped up on consecutive days last week. The NBA's version finished Thursday night with the Heat beating the Bulls in game 5. The NHL's version finished Friday night with the Bruins defeating the Lightning in game 7. Both series concluded after their respective Western counterparts to set up each league's Championship series.

With the NBA's conference finals wrapping up before the NHL's, that increased the likelihood for a rare occurance- the NBA Finals concluding before the Stanley Cup is won.

League Poll - Postseason Popularity
2:09 PM ET on 5/8/11 by Jay Soester
Last year I put the NBA & NHL Playoffs up against regular season MLB games and MLB won easily. This year, I'm putting the two postseasons up against one another.

Which postseason have you been watching more of and does having a team to root for factor in?
