I'm confused by your answer to tiebreak #2. If you guys have better suggestion for the 2nd tiebreaker I'm all ears

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Ok, so I made an effort to add up all the wins for this week. PLEASE double check yourself to make sure. By my count both @TurnUpTheHeat and @Hornsstampede2.0 tied for 1st with 9-4 and both had the exact same tie breaker (59) so I guess they are co winners.

This week's scores:
@Hornsstampede2.0 : 9-4
@TurnUpTheHeat : 9-4
@purguy12 : 8-5
@Shanemansj13 : 8-5
@Bolts : 7-6
@wildturkey : 7-6
@bksballer89 : 6-7
@CitySushi : 6-7
@wlk3 : 6-7
@trojanfan12 : 6-7
@Sportsguy9695 : 6-7
@Lakers+USC=#1 : 5-8
@logic : 5-8

If these are correct, I'll add them to the overall standings later.

@wildturkey @bksballer89 I'm pretty sure I was 8-5.

@wildturkey @bksballer89 I'm pretty sure I was 8-5.

I will do it all when I get home. I'm thinking Wildturkey missed a game and counted it incorrectly. Should have the standings up by 730

@wildturkey you counted the Cavs/Dubs game as a Warriors W right? It seems so but the Cavs had covered

Are you guys ok with 2 tiebreakers so we can always only have one winner?

@bksballer89 I won that one, but counted 5 other losses on my picks.
I didn't look at anyone else.

I think it would help if someone (and I volunteered this week) would highlight the winners after Sundays game so people have the same cheat sheet to grade with.

[Bolts]

I think I was the only one who picked the Blazers to beat the Kings in Sacramento, the Kings might not be good when it comes to winning games but at least they can get me wins in pickem!

No clue. I shouldn't have posted it last night tbh. It was late and I was like 50/50 I miscounted something but tried to make an effort to help out anyway. Should have just waited and double checked later. Did you redo it? If not, everyone should probably double check themselves.
