I have no idea how to make early answers populate later questions, so make sure your quarterfinal, semifinal, and championship picks are consistent with the earlier picks (i.e. if you pick Durant to lose in the first round, don't pick him to win in the second round). The prize is nothing! Who cares?! Get your picks in before it starts, I will lock the form at 7PM (the preview show, not the first matchup!) I'll compile picks after it begins.

So each player got to pick 8 teams and they're only allowed to use each one once. Since the semis or finals are bests-of-three, they could potentially have to use all eight teams (single elimination for two rounds, best of three for two rounds). This kind of rules, I'm stupid excited

DJJ sucks at on ball defense so I get why he's now letting the computer do it. He needs to back off a bit and use the right stick

You can tell DJJ has been playing online for years while Durant just plays against the computer with his force-traded franchise.
