I'm not sure I understand this system.

Suppose Team A plays Team B. If I correctly pick Team A to win series 4-3, I could still end up big time negative, right?

Here are my picks:
Game 1: Team A
Game 2: Team A
Game 3: Team B
Game 4: Team B
Game 5: Team A
Game 6: Team B
Game 7: Team A

Actual results are just the opposite (except for Game 7):
Game 1: Team B (minus 3 pts)
Game 2: Team B (minus 3 pts)
Game 3: Team A (minus 3 pts)
Game 4: Team A (minus 3 pts)
Game 5: Team B (minus 3 pts)
Game 6: Team A (minus 3 pts)
Game 7: Team A (10 pts for correct game prediction + 3 pts for series prediction)

I still ended up with score of -5 (negative 5).

Am I understanding scoring system correctly?

Furthermore, if I predict series goes 7 games, but Team A sweeps, do I get -3 pts for wrong game results for #5,6,7?
