That was an exciting quarter finals round. We bid farewell to @gnilma, who was burned by the Kings. I stand alone with zero strikes, but I am also perilously close to running out of teams.
Semi Finals (12/7)

So far my plan is working. I have intentionally striken myself but I have a path. It's a tenous path but it's a path. I will take the Pelicans as well. Sorry Lebron it's Zion time.

I'll make the reminder early this time, since we're on a quick turnaround: @POTUS, @elnosh, @BTC_Bellzer.

You still have Lakers and Pelicans, so you can survive this round before you run out of teams. I think most of us are in similar situations. If everyone runs out of teams, we'll have a tie-breaker.

Same as me but you have no strikes. Yikes. What is the tiebreaker?

I like the idea of using MVP predictions as the tie-breaker, but even then we would have to use something like final spread if everyone got the MVP pick wrong.
That's from the original survivor pool post, so I guess it's law: MVP and final spread.

Were we supposed to pick MVP and spread at the beginning of the tournament or just before the final game? I don't recall picking an MVP.

I was thinking we would do it at the end.
