Challenge # 2 (Predict the Stat Line)

Tuesday night is game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals in the NBA.   Each tribe's mission (except exempt Lincoln) is to predict the points, assists, and rebounds for each team's starting five in that game.  

Chicago's Starting Five:
PG:  Derrick Rose
SG:  Keith Boggans
SF:  Luol Deng
PF:  Carlos Boozer
C:  Joakim Noah

Miami's Starting Five
PG:  Mike Bibby
SG:  Dwayne Wade
SF:  LeBron James
PF:  Chris Bosh
C:  Joel Anthony


If you match the stat line, you get points equal to that stat (or 5 if less than 5).
If you are off by 1. you get 80%, of the player's stat
If you are off by 2, you get 50%
If you are off by 3, you get 20%
(Note, the bump up to 5 only occurs when exactly matched)

You can get bonus points too:

10 bonus points for ech player, you match 2 of the 3 correctly.
25 bonus points for each player you match all 3 correctly

1st tiebreaker:  Chicago bench points
2nd tiebreaker:  total points in game
3rd tiebreaker:  order of submission

Captains, you submissions are due to me by 6:00 PM EDT Tuesday

I think this is a tough one to match exactly on points.  However, I expect that most points will come from assists and rebounds

Next to the snozzberries which obviously would taste like snozzberries far away from the wangdoodles, hornswagglers, and vermicious knids.

I did not post it before.  The winning tribe, once again, will be exempt from the next challebge.  However,I reserve the right in future challenges to reward the winning tribe differently.
