NBA Round 2 Results

Added 2024-05-18 04:22:28 +0000 UTC

Followed three of the four teams and made a pick for all each game and here are the results:

Overall 17 picks (9 wins - 8 losses) - 52%

Timberwolves vs Nuggets - 2 wins - 4 losses - 33%

Pacers vs Knicks - 4 wins - 2 losses - 66%

Thunder vs Mavericks - 3 wins - 2 losses - 60%

Round 2 was/has been a HUGE struggle for me. Most definitely a big failure and disappointment. Especially compared to how well Round 1 went for me, like a night and day comparison, apples and oranges. Every series I did 50/50 in while outright losing the overall Nuggets and Wolves series all together. It doesn't matter if I pick the winner in game 7 for Nuggets and Wolves, I've already picked wrong four times, I've lost that series overall.

For my 2 futures bet, both are still in tact but one will definitely be losing on Sunday, depending on whoever wins between Nuggets and Wolves. My eastern team that is attached to the 2 futures bets, the Celtics, are still alive and into the next round already, the only team remaining that knows how to win consistently and knows how to close out an actual series without dragging it on into 6 or 7 games.

There are 3 more round 2 games left, maybe 4 depending on how the Saturday game goes, will be doing picks for all but this round 2 is pretty much shot for me, hopefully everyone who didn't do so well in round 1 did much better in round 2. I've done the opposite unfortunately.

Overall NBA Playoff record for this season heading into Round 3

38 picks (25 wins - 13 losses) - for a 65% win ratio.

Overall NBA season record for 2023-2024 including playoffs

165 picks (95 wins - 70 losses) - for a 57% win ratio.

I will be doing all Conference Finals games as well as the NBA Finals.

Thank you!
