Pepper McSausage Picks

A pick a day until my mom comes back to life.

Trying to figure out what to put as my introduction for this premise, but I’m thankful that since this is more of a diary for me right now, nobody is actually gonna read this. The perfect way to counter the vulnerability of leaving thoughts out in the world to be observed and perceived is to leave them somewhere that nobody will find them. But put it in public, so it still feels like judgment is lurking around the corner!

My mom died two months ago and gambling has been a great escape, though I wish I was better at it. There’s no rhyme or reason for anything gambling these days…there are so many experts, everybody is on the same data and identifying the same picks, edges are growing slimmer and slimmer. What sweet, sweet bliss. So I don’t gamble off any data, I’ve learned that picks that make the most sense will fuck you over the hardest, so why not bet on the picks not supported by data but rather propped up by vibes? That must surely work, right? RIGHT?? It surely will not, but surely technology will advance to the point of regenerating people soon, so this gimmick will not last long.

Today’s pick is: COLLIN SEXTON OVER 4.5 ASSISTS

There’s no discernible data to support this pick, and it’s already being bet under (so that’s cool). The Brandon Miller injury should at least guarantee 30+ minutes. At that rate, with his usage (and his demeanor), he should be near 8 or 9 potential assists. Honestly not a good amount of potential assists to bank on, but this pick shouldn’t make sense. The more sense it makes, the more likely it is to be heavily bet on (argo the more likely it is to lose, right big bad Vegas?). LaMelo just had a ton of assists too, so everyone is looking his way for hope. Sexton just missed this mark without Brandon Miller, suggesting he’s just worried about scoring first (which he always is anyways). This is just stream of consciousness, but in the pick n roll of life, everyone is anticipating one or two paths, but Sexton’s over here is the right way to leverage momentum and perception, and cash out!

I’ll see you on the other side!
