While we’re waiting for  Deron and the Jazz to take on Houston tonight, I wanted to launch a contest to guess what Deron’s stats would be at the All-star break.

I don’t have the prize picked out yet, and it’s not a huge prize, but it will be worth at least two minutes of your time filling out a quick form.

Here’s what you have to do.  First, fill out the form below with your guesses for Deron’s FG%, points per game, and assists per game.  The final stat is guessing how many total assists he’ll have at the break.  That will be the tie-breaker.

The scoring will work like this.  The differences between Deron’s actual stats and your prediction will be added up.  The lowest difference would win.  So you can be a little high or a little low.  We’re just talking difference from the actual stat.  If it’s tied, that’s when the tie-breaker of total assists comes in.

So if I guessed .515, 21.3, and 12.2 and his stats were actually .520, 20.9, and 11.9, you would have,

.520-.515 = .05
21.3 – 20.9 = .4
12.2 – 11.9 = .3
Total = .75

For the tie-breaker, it’s Price is Right style.  So whoever is closest without going over wins.  Should we still be tied, we’ll flip a coin or both people will get a prize.

The big kicker.  You have to re-tweet this post on Twitter and be following @votederon if you’re not already doing so.

If you’re still anti-twitter, you can still participate, you just won’t be able to win.

You have until the end of the week (Nov 7 @ 11:59:59 PM) to get your guesses in.  You have to re-tweet during that time as well.
