    I've recently been betting on the NBA for the first time and thought it would be fun to start a thread/contest to keep track of my picks/results as well as others.

    The contest will be simple, everyone will have a 1000k bankroll to bet as they please, no second chances, no refills, etc. Whomever has the most points by the All Star Game is the Winner.

    Bets/posts must be placed atleast 5 minutes before the start of games. Posts/bets which are edited or placed after will not count. Disclaimer - this is just hypothetical and for fun.

    I'm placing 300 on the Lakers -10.5

    With Steph Curry out, The Warriors playing on the Road as well as the Lakers huge front line vs the warriors weak front line, I expect this to be a blow out.

    I'm liking the Nuggets and Blazers also, but the lakers game seems like a sure thing.

    I'd figure it would be self tracking, since each time someone "bets" they post for all to see. However you do make an interesting point. I guess after the initial bet, it would be easiest if ppl post their total points in Bold whenever they place their next bets.
