I’m not sure if any of you have seen the Immaculate Grid or any of its spin-offs for other sports, but the basic idea is that you get nine squares, each of which is the intersection of two rules, and you have to come up with a player who matches both of those rules. For instance, one square needs a player who played for both the Lakers and Cavs, or another needs a player who played for the Bulls and played for an ACC school.
Crucially, you can only use each player once, so if you have one square that asks for a player who played for both the Magic and the Lakers, and another that asks for a player who averaged 30 ppg and was a number 1 pick, you can only use Shaq for one of those. You’ll have to find another guy who matches the other square. Sometimes a player is the only answer possible for a certain square, so you have to be careful about answering too fast.
Finally, you get nine guesses, total. If you guess a guy and it’s wrong, you lose that guess. You can still guess for that square, but you won’t be able to guess every single square.
Anyway, in trying to give us something silly to do on Friday afternoon, I’ve made a low-tech one for Michigan Basketball players (so only guess Michigan players or else it’d be too easy). Since I’m not hi-tech enough to make this an actual program, I recommend you fill this out (or just type up your answers), save it, and then check your answers. You can mark which ones you got wrong in your post. Honor system.
Bonus points for the most obscure player guessed correctly - I have checked and there is at least one correct answer for each square, but if you manage to find a spot to fit Amadou Ba, you earn the respect of the board.
Finally, because I can’t find the ability to hide spoilers on this forum, I recommend doing this before you scroll down and check everyone else’s answers!
. I used all my extra guesses on the multiple head coach and is a head coach
