    I like our chances at 53+ win season

    Guys, we have 8 preseason games that should be competitive with 7 opponents all being playoff caliber teams except for Orlando.

    Enough preparation for the season

    55+ wins for sure. chemistry takes a full season to develop - which was what last season was for.

    Last year people though we'd win 60-65 and now chickens here don't even think we'll win 50?

    Rockets fans are pathetic sometimes

    Over medium, with hash browns, crisp bacon, wheat toast, and coffee - black.
    Sam stole my number. 58 wins, same caveat.

    I don't think it works like that... who would they flip it for to get those extra 5 or 6 wins, if that is what you are talking about?

    Tried to find a win total prediction from me for us last year, but all I could find was this:

    I have us similarly positioned this year. I'm concerned about our bench (especially at PG) and I'm not yet sure of how Bev's knee is doing, which makes my worries over our backup PG even stronger.

    The West seems to be even more competitive this year, so fewer wins for the top 4 teams wouldn't necessarily mean that they are worse than last year.

    But we didn't win 60-65 last season and had roster turnover. I'd take the over bet, but people are allowed to change their expectations.
