AGAINST THE GRAIN: Go With Your Gut in Game 7!

Here's a reminder to GO WITH YOUR GUT in this crazy game of pick one. Every time I make a last minute change I regret it and I always fall victim to it at least a couple of times a year. I will NOT let this happen tomorrow as my gut has always been that the Cavs will win this series.

That said, many of us, like myself, may have picked Banchero & Franz prior to now. If you haven't, they're the two best picks IMO. However, many folks may be looking to hedge with a high octane guy like Mitchell or even Garland to a lesser degree (so as to not pick too many Magic). Or perhaps you feel ORL will win the series as they've looked pretty good lately and somehow the Cavs couldn't win the last game even with 50 from Mitchell.

That said, I feel like the Against The Grain picks here are Jalen Suggs and/or Wendell Carter Jr. (who's been starting lately). Suggs is getting my pick because I'm trusting my gut and NOT picking a Cavs player, even though I've already picked 2 Magic players. I'm going all-in baby!

*Stay Tuned for the RESULTS posted after the games.

----------------------------------

RESULTS: Wells Suggs & Carter Jr. did virtually the same, which wasn't great, but was still good because Orlando was eliminated. I went with my gut and saved Mitchell, which proved to be the right call (at least in the multiplier league)
