Also rule 7, the "sucks to be you" clause.

Memory is one of the first 2 things to go. I forget what the other one is.

Houston is usually the other.

Now just need Zion to follow suit.

Since I put my picks up vs Vegas in the OG post, I thought I'd check to see how I was doing vs the professionals:



Team order is my pick order. Turns out not too shabby so far, outrunning the pros by 12.

Big misses are OKC and NOP.

Pelican's I was counting on injuries that haven't happened- we'll see if Zion can play the whole season healthy.

OKC is more puzzling- I usually have them higher- not sure why that day I downrated them. Maybe because they haven't lived up to my estimation in the past I gave up on them and put them more middle of the road.

Generally though, I'm thinking my picks will age well over the course of the rest of the season.

Scoot was a -56 tonight. Yikes.

Yeah, that’s going to sting for a bit.

He’s really seeming a bust already…

I watched some of that game and it was a complete team sucking effort. Scoot was actually really good in the first quarter, but looks like he fell off a cliff after that.
