For a second I thought I was done. Couldn’t remember if I put my money on the Clippers or the Nets.

I have some clarifications on the rules since I'm late to this game.

* When must a bet be in? Before the game tips off I assume?
* Do you have to bet on every game, or can you just bet on some of them? I assume the latter since that's what some folks seem to be doing.
* The bet is just who wins, not against the point spread, right? Does that make it sort of vulnerable to beating the game by betting on favorites like the 1 seed vs the 8?
* Are we keeping track of each person's money via the honor system basically? Just everybody tracks their own wins/losses and is expected to do so correctly?

Ya, just need to post bet before game tips.

Don’t have to bet on every game, just whatever games you want.

Just betting on who wins...point spread doesn’t matter. It does create games that are easier to pick, but just how it goes.

Yep and just keep track via the honor code.

One other thing, we haven’t been voting on games involving the Suns..I noticed you bet on that game in your last post.

Thanks for the clarifications. I didn't know we had a no-Suns-games rule; that makes a lot of sense. I will relinquish the small amount of profit I would have made by that wager and won't put any money on any future Suns games.
