On Monday Yao Ming and the Houston Rockets will faced the Los Angeles Lakers in Round 2 of the Western Conference NBA Playoffs. I would be shocked if the Rockets beat the Lakers this year considering the Lakers are a favorite to win the championships and the Rockets have lost four times to the Lakers this season.

Anyway, here’s the game: Guess how many points Yao Ming will score in total during this series with the Lakers. The Ningin user with the closest guess will win.

To help you out, Yao Ming averages 19.7 points a game. In the four games against the Lakers this year he scored, 12, 19, 16, & 16.

Game 1 will be on 5/4 10:30 EST on TNT
Game 2 will be on 5/6 10:30 EST on TNT
Game 3 will be on 5/8 9:30 EST on ESPN
Game 4 will be on 5/10 3:30 EST on ABC
Game 5 will be on 5/12 TBD on TNT
Game 6 will be on 5/14 TBD on ESPN
Game 7 will be on 5/17 TBD

The last time to guess is two hours before the start of the last game which could be game 4 to game 7 depending on how well the Rockets do.

If you’re new to Ningin and don’t know what pins are, read this post. Not sure what EXP is, this post should help.

In Summary:

Start Date: Now
