Wait... you mean the Games prediction is how many games each team wins in the series? Then yeah, I would agree. Maximize your points by predicting 7 game series every time.

And to carry Pumpy's Scenarios further:

Scenario 4 - You pick Team A to win 4-3 - Team B wins 4-3:
+30 for picking Team A's 3 wins
+30 for picking Team B's 3 wins
Still a total of 60 points

Scenario 5 - You pick Team A to win 4-3 - Team B wins 4-1:
+10 for picking Team A's 1 win
+30 for picking Team B's 3 wins
-3 for missing total number of games
Total 37 points

Both scoring a lot of points and in both cases getting the series wrong.
