This is your chance to update your predictions from August: #619305. September picks are due before the end of September.

If you're new, check out the June post for details. This contest will be open to new entrants all the way through the end of the NBA regular season (April 15th, 2025).

If you want to join, put your predictions in the comments for MVP, Champion, and All NBA 1st Team.

Earlier picks will be worth more than later picks. So, September picks will be worth one more point than the same pick in October (assuming it's correct, of course).

I'm assuming that's

Champ: Pacers

MVP: Giannis

All NBA 1st Team: Jokic, Luka, Brunson

You've got two more All NBA 1st team positions to fill.

reply

Check now. I've edited.

reply

Ok, I will tell you that it's almost impossible for a player to win MVP without making the All NBA 1st Team.

reply

Then I take Pacers and Giannis in place of ANt and SGA. Would that be fine?

reply

No, the Pacers are a team. You could take Giannis in place of one of those players (Ant or SGA).

reply

Okay take Giannis in place of SGA

reply

Alright, I'll get you in the books.

I feel I miss out on so much because I dont follow sports as much as you guys.

reply

You don't have to follow sports to take part in the contests.

reply

I know you guys are welcoming, but sometimes you feel like that person that wants to contribute but doesnt play well.
You know, that tennis friend that wants to play tennis but is a drag to play with because he isnt on your level.

reply

I don't play tennis, so I wouldn't know. But by your logic I'm pretty sure that means you're welcome to join here

reply

Up to you. If you think you'd enjoy it, hop in. We'll be happy to have you.

reply

I know :)

Sticking with all your terrible picks. Noted.

I don't want to mess with success now that I am back on track after the baseball pool anomaly.

Thanks for inviting me @Undisciplined! What do I know that you all don't? 👀

reply

Lakers winning a title w/out either LeBron or AD being 1st team? You must be expecting an epic playoff run. I think people are sleeping on the Lakers, too.

reply

Well the 1st team is all politics right?? I mean cmon when was the last time LeBron was on the 1st team? or AD?

If the Lakers actually did win the title, then it WOULD be epic!! But it sounds like it's ok to update our choices later too? Season hasn't even started! But I'm not a chump who thinks Celtics will win back-to-back lmao. They're not THAT good! Lakers would beat 'em in the Finals XD

reply

Yes, you can change your picks, but earlier picks are worth more than later ones.

reply

HEARD IT HERE FIRST LAKERS ARE WINNING IT ALL, WAY BEFORE IT WAS OBVIOUS!

Hot damn! We're getting lots of new entrants into the contest and our first Minnesota pick.

reply

Sticking with my picks. A bit under a month till season starts. Looking forward!

reply

I'm a little envious of your Wemby All NBA pick, but I don't know who I would swap him with in my picks.

reply

Your picks are solid. IMO the Wemby pick is quite a gamble, but I'm a gambling man.
