Choose a game date using the calendar. Every slate follows America/New_York time, even when games finish after midnight.

Pick a winner for each game. When confidence points are enabled, assign each number from 1 to the number of games exactly once per date. Points reset for the next date.

Each game locks five minutes before tipoff. Correct picks earn their confidence value, or one point when confidence points are disabled.

If enabled, commissioners can select one wager game per date. A correct wager earns double points; an incorrect wager loses its assigned points. A missing wager pick uses the highest unused confidence value.

Spread leagues score against the league’s fixed spread. ESPN odds are used when available; commissioners can manage their league spreads.

Standings show your selected date’s score and your cumulative season total through that date. Seasons run across calendar years.

Changes to submitted NBA Finals predictions lock before the first imported regular-season game. Optional Hot Tub standings count points from the commissioner’s configured start date.
