Very hard NBA trivia quiz 

Post#1 » by GSWFan1994 » Sat Nov 18, 2023 6:13 pm

Just found this one: link.

I got 13 out of 25.

More than half of the questions I had no idea what to answer.

Post your results here, let's see if someone manages to reach at least 20.

Yeah that's tough. I got 13 out of 25 as well. And we probably got a bunch of different questions right.

There are a few I am completely embarrassed I missed TBH... Yup just did it a second time and got 25/25 but its absolutely ughhhh stupid with the same questions lol. Considering I am just watching college football and posting on a lazy Saturday, I should remember the answers for an hour even though I am old and senile now.

I will say First time I got the 3 peats wrong (among many others) but that answer kinda through me. I have to look up the math on that

I got 13 also lol. I would say most of the ones I got wrong, my second choice would have been the right answer.

The questions are the same, but the order seems to be random.

There are a few more quizzes here: link.

i got eleven, but i was eating a pizza (no, i will not tell you the toppings) and had more than fifteen minutes left over when i finished. if it was a competition with anything at stake, i bet i could've done substantially better.

spoiler contains info about one of the questions :
Spoiler:
like, the one with teams that don't end in an S. i could've easily gone through all thirty teams and got it right if i simply cared. instead, i just went through like half the league and ended up picking "2." :lol:

and tomorrow at 3 pm my three-day juice cleanse will be on my doorstep. :lol:

But pepperoni and ricotta don't mix, I think?

I'll buy one very similar like this one later on tonight to watch the Warriors game:

Me too, but I only got 12.

Several of the questions seemed a bit ambiguous or incorrect as well. For instance, is the fewest points in a quarter for one team or both teams combined? The question lists a game in 2004 and mentions both teams in that game, but the actual answer is only for one team, and it's happened two separate times, not just the one cited in the question.

The Celtics won 8 championships in a row. Is that one threepeat or two?
Spoiler:
The correct answer listed in the quiz is 7, but I only count 5 if you consider the Celtics streak as one threepeat+ or 6 if you count it as two separate threepeats.
Just because it happened to you, doesn't make it interesting.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Yesterday I was lying; today I'm telling the truth.

I got 17.

Not sure how the answer to the number of three-peats is not either 5 or 6? Lakers (x2), Bulls (x2), and Celtics during their 8-peat (which I guess technically counts as two three-peats).
