Here's the spreadsheet:

Top Gun Scoresheet

[Karl, if you see this thread first, you have until ~9:40pm to pick a 10+ player if you don't want to roll with my pick for you.]

Updating with Round of 64 results right now...

britrock88 · 03-17-2018, 11:16 AM

Here's where we were after Thursday:

Code:

        	Points	Players Left
ntndeacon	123	4
britrock88	65	5
BishopMVP	63	5
Logan   	51	6
tarcone 	47	5
B & B   	33	6
stevew  	30	6
Vince, Pt. II	24	5
Karlifornia	23	6

britrock88 · 03-17-2018, 11:16 AM

NTN had all 6 players in action--got 20+ from Devonte Graham, Keenan Evans, Mike Daum, and Kevin Knox, but lost Daum and Allonzo Trier in the process.

britrock88 · 03-17-2018, 11:25 AM

My long bet on Azubuike doeesn't look as great with Haas done for the tournament...

britrock88 · 03-17-2018, 11:25 AM

I was going to poke fun at Karl for passing up my designated 10+ from Buffalo... but he picked a 10+ from Marshall. Well played, Karl.

I literally just started clicking on 10+ seeded teams on ESPN.com's bracket and I saw that this Elmore guy averaged over 20 a game...it jumped out at me. I gave no thought to who they were playing, what position this guy played, or anything else. I just got lucky. If they beat WVU, well then I'm over the moon.

britrock88 · 03-19-2018, 11:08 AM

Logan lost two Tar Heels yesterday (

), but he does have a 40-point edge on the field. We'll see if NTN, Karl, I, or B & B can make up ground with our extra players remaining. (I ticked my number back up to 4 because Haas's status sounds a little more day-to-day.)

Logan · 03-19-2018, 12:44 PM

Stupid UNC. And yeah, that's not holding up.

tarcone · 03-19-2018, 04:06 PM

Yay! In last and only 2 guys left.

B & B · 03-19-2018, 04:39 PM

Top Gun rocks

Its hilarious because I have the only 10+ seed guy left (LOYO CHI)

and went anti chalk as much as I could except for the one #1 seed guy I took

he had 2 pts and was somewhat responsible for the first ever #16 seed victory.

LMAO

stevew · 03-19-2018, 05:10 PM

Well poop

tarcone · 03-19-2018, 06:51 PM

Looking at my players, I see I have 2 guys that have scored a lot and are on 2 potential final 4 teams.
This may be the comeback of the century

britrock88 · 03-23-2018, 01:44 PM

After Thursday's games (not a lot of Top Gun players in actions):

Code:

        	Points	Players Left
Logan   	218	2
ntndeacon	187	3
Karlifornia	183	3
BishopMVP	176	1
B & B   	167	3
Vince, Pt. II	160	1
britrock88	152	4
tarcone 	149	1
stevew  	145	1

britrock88 · 03-24-2018, 03:35 PM

Through the Sweet 16...

Code:

        	Points	Players Left
Logan   	262	2
ntndeacon	233	3
Karlifornia	210	2
B & B   	209	1
britrock88	195	3
BishopMVP	192	1
Vince, Pt. II	169	1
tarcone 	161	0
stevew  	160	1

britrock88 · 03-26-2018, 03:48 PM

Through the Elite 8...

Code:

        	Points	Players Left
Logan   	309	2
ntndeacon	266	1
Karlifornia	239	1
britrock88	232	2
B & B   	216	1
BishopMVP	204	1
Vince, Pt. II	180	1
stevew  	172	0
tarcone 	161	0

Duke-Kansas featured a whopping 8 players, 4 from each team. Guess who was the indirect beneficiary of Malik Newman's 13-point OT...

It's Logan, who still has Jalen Brunson in play in addition to Newman, and thus a guaranteed representative in the title game.

The rundown for the rest of us:
NTN has DeVonte Graham, Karl has Mo Wagner, I have Donte DiVincenzo and Udoka Azubuike (give me the best team-of-names award), B & B has Clayton Custer (nice!), Bishop has Mikal Bridges, and Vince has Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk.

I don't think there's any catching Logan at this point, but positions 2 through 7 are certainly up for grabs.

Vince, Pt. II · 03-26-2018, 08:17 PM

I think I have a pretty firm grip on #7

tarcone · 03-26-2018, 09:33 PM

Yep, this went just like my brackets.

Logan · 03-27-2018, 07:31 AM

Yeah that was a nice OT!

Logan · 03-28-2018, 09:20 AM

I think I just reported my first post!

I see there's been a clean up.

Vince, Pt. II · 03-28-2018, 11:35 AM

That was a pretty convoluted bot - inserting the spam link into a quote of another post.

I feel so used.

britrock88 · 04-04-2018, 11:07 AM

Oh, man, let this slip. Catching up now!

britrock88 · 04-04-2018, 11:11 AM

Where we were after the semifinals:

Code:

        	Points	Players Left
Logan   	348	1
ntndeacon	289	0
Karlifornia	263	1
britrock88	255	1
B & B   	231	0
BishopMVP	214	1
Vince, Pt. II	190	0
stevew  	172	0
tarcone 	161	0

Malik Newman finishes with 108 points for Logan.

At this point, Logan still had Brunson, Karl still had Wagner, I still had DiVincenzo, and Bishop still had Bridges.

britrock88 · 04-04-2018, 11:17 AM

Aaand after the title game:

Code:

        	Points	Players Left
Logan   	357	0
ntndeacon	289	0
britrock88	286	0
Karlifornia	279	0
BishopMVP	233	0
B & B   	231	0
Vince, Pt. II	190	0
stevew  	172	0
tarcone 	161	0

I slip ahead of Karl thanks to DiVincenzo's nutso 31 (not that I enjoyed it in real time), but can't quite catch NTN. Bridges' 19 helps Bishop past B & B for a median finish.

Congrats to Logan!

Our all-Top Gun team:
Malik Newman, 108 in 5 games (Logan, 4.6)
Jalen Brunson, 97 in 6 games (Logan, 1.4)
Mikal Bridges, 93 in 6 games (BishopMVP, 1.8)
Donte DiVincenzo, 90 in 6 games (britrock88, 2.8)
Mo Wagner, 90 in 6 games (Karlifornia, 2.7)
Clayton Custer, 61 in 5 games (B & B, 5.9, 10+)

Logan · 04-04-2018, 12:49 PM

About time I took one of these down. Thanks, as always, for running with this brit.

Of course!

Might be time to do some succession planning, given my forum activity these days. Holler at me if you're interested--it's mostly spreadsheet work/data entry and a few days of being on the forum constantly.

I'm happy to help too. This game is a lot easier to score than Starting Ten.

tarcone · 04-13-2018, 08:43 PM

Jeez, Newman had almost as points as my entire team. I suck at this.
