What's going on y'all!?!? We had a very ROLLERCOASTER First Round of the NBA Playoffs... We had a BRUTAL couple days in the beginning, and we've slowly been GRINDING back from that DISASTER!! However, we've done a pretty good job of climbing out of that hole, and find ourselves in a "Decent" spot headed into the Conference Semi-Final Round!! In this post... I'll give you guy's MY Individual Results from each day, as well as my overall First Round Results.. I'll show which First Round "Futures" cashed for us, and which "Pre-Playoff Future's" we still have ALIVE headed into the Second Round!! I'll also have a "NBA Second Round Preview" video out for y'all at some point this evening.. I'm going to try to have it out before the first game tips off at 8:30 tonight, but not sure I'm going to have enough time.. Either way, I'll have it out at some point this evening.. I'll also release "Crick's Picks" for tonight's game here in just a little bit.. We still have A LOT of Hoops left in these Playoffs and we're gonna keep this thing headed in the RIGHT DIRECTION!!
