RBSL Forums

I meant to do this last year, but never got around to it. I'm setting up a NCAA-style bracket for the RBSL playoffs. When sim 12 is posted and the seeds are finalized, PM or Whatsapp me your bracket to be entered in the pool ($100 each).

Rules:
-$100 buy-in
-Winner takes all
-The tie breaker is the total number of finals games. Closest wins.
-The sum of both team's points from the last finals game will be used as the tiebreaker-tiebreaker. Closest score wins. If that's somehow a tie too, the pot is divided evenly.


Scoring:
Each round is worth 40 points. That means each conf. semis pick is worth 5 pts, each conf. finals pick is worth 10, each finals pick worth 20, and the champ worth 40.

Format:
Since every major sports website doesn't cover RBSL, we have to get creative. Post your picks based on my template below:

Western Conference:
Conference Semis 1: Team v Team (Winner of Jazz v Clippers and winner of Rockets v Grizzlies)
Conference Semis 2: Team v Team (Winner of Blazers v Warriors and winner of Wolves v Suns)
Conference Finals: Team v Team

Eastern Conference:
Conference Semis 1: Team v Team (Winner of Hawks v Bucks and winner of Pistons v Pacers)
Conference Semis 2: Team v Team (Winner of Magic v Raptors and winner of Nets v Cavs)
Conference Finals: Team v Team

Finals: Team v Team
Champion: Team

Tiebreakers:
Total # of finals games: #
Sum of both team's points from the last finals game  (tiebreaker) - ###

Please let me know if you have any questions.
