I feel like he lost the bet, but at the same time I don't think he should follow through on it if he doesn't want to. I wouldn't. But then again I wouldn't make such a dumb bet in the first place.

Still, it's not like we're talking about money and/or something that matters one iota.

Perhaps next time you'll be wise enough to specify what constitutes as "farther" in the playoffs.

If a team goes to the Finals and loses in 7, that's a massive difference than being swept. No one would consider that the "same result", and it's up for debate on "how far they went".

Does "farther" really need to be specified? You advance in rounds as opposed to advancing in games. How much you advance (within rounds) is how "far" you go. T-Mac doesn't feel any better in any of the series he lost because he won more games in one of them as opposed to another and his teams' progress has been judged as such.

Roxfan is not on my list of cool Rocket fans on this board.

However, technically the 6th game of the second round is going further than the 5th game of the second round.

By your logic it mean the Lakers went just as far as the Celtic did last year because both teams made it to the finals.

Damn this is like a bad episode of L.A. law....or rather a good episode of Night Court :lol.

If you have a bracket and two teams are locked in a series, do you move one team (represented by a name/logo) closer to the next platform (round) because they won a game or do you keep them in the same spot until they win the series and advance further?

I'm not saying Roxfan should go, but I don't think the wager is as complicated as it is being made out to be.

NewJerSpur
05-14-2009, 02:11 AM
And I don't think the Lakers'/Celtics series can hold ground in this case because the Mavs and Rockets weren't going to meet in the Finals which is the only time comparing the progress of two teams game-by-game to settle the bet would be necessary.

But that's your definition of farther.

Simply put, the Rockets are still playing. The Mavs are not. That is farther, no matter if you're going by rounds, points, or piddlywinks. Do you really think a team that gets swept in a round is the same as a team that gets taken 7 games before losing? "But they're still out of the playoffs!" you might say. Well, so is every team until the championship.

It's something that should have been absolutely specified beforehand, and they both failed to do so.

Not to mention the fact that the Rockets HAVE NOT LOST YET. In any case, you're wrong for completely jumping the gun on a team that still has a chance to go the the WCF.

Again, I don't think so. What I should have done was relegated my original question to this particular series rather than generalize it. Going "far" implies movement, movement=advancement in this case. If one team loses by less games than the other in the same round they may have OUTLASTED the other team, but they didn't ADVANCE FARTHER than them. IF the Rockets lose in game 6, both teams would have made it to the same plateau in their travels: the 2nd round.

Hey, I'm just using the same standard as every sports league, professional or otherwise, and that's by counting the wins and losses of each team.

Mavs have 1 win and 4 losses.

Houston has 2 wins and 3 losses.

By the most basic definition, Houston went further because they are still in the playoffs and Dallas is not.

If you're correct, what's the point of keeping the records of every team that did not make the playoffs?

True, these two guys were not specific as to the bet but using the most basic definition of the word "further" you gotta say Roxfan wins this bet.

You need 100% of 4 games to advance

Mavs had 25%
Rox have 50%

50% >25% or said another way, farther along to the goal of 100% or 4 games.

True, these two guys were not specific as to the bet but using the most basic definition of the word "further" you gotta say Roxfan wins this bet.

The purpose of winning is to ADVANCE. How far you go comes down to how far you advance (distance). Winning games allows you to move that distance if you win enough games to advance. If you don't win enough in a series you do not advance. How many people when describing how far their team goes in the playoffs say, "My team made it to 3 games" if their team loses in the 1st round? Not that many if any that I've ever spoken to.

The records for the regular season is a wash in this debate as well. Why? Because two teams can finish with the exact same record but have different seedings within their division. If they made a bet regarding their teams' standings at the end of the season then the wins and losses would make a difference. In the playoffs though you might win more games than another team and still go just as FAR as them.

You need 100% of 4 games to advance

Mavs had 25%
Rox have 50%

50% >25% or said another way, farther along to the goal of 100% or 4 games.

The #s don't lie.


Again, if you have a bracket set up neither team goes ANYWHERE if they don't win the series. You need 4 games to win, but if you don't win 4 games you aren't going anywhere, hence no advancement.
