    That's a .600 winning percentage. Last year was 56 games, 0.683.

    We have lost 13 games already, which leaves a max of 20 losses to go 49-33.

    Can we go 37-20 (0.65) rest of the reason?

    49 games is weak.

    NO SIR!

    Jopatholic is right. This looks like a 40-45 win team. I'm thinking 40-42(ish) record.

    Now maybe they find the "switch", or they make a trade(or three) and start playing defense and all is well again but until then...

    Vegas had this team winning 55 plus at the beginning of the season. Guess they smoked the same crap we did...

    45 wins would seem like a huge accomplishment with this team.

    No poll? It looks unlikely at this point, but maybe they win 20 in a row.

    I mean it is possible, but that would require them to actually start playing defense, which at this point does not seem likely at all.

    We aren't even 500 while playing the easiest schedule in the league so far filled with lotto teams. This team would be lucky to be 40-42.

    Oh good luck with this prediction. I can't even see them winning 45 games. They don't care about winning. If they did they would try

    12-13 now. On pace for a 39 win season.


    I think 45-37 is realistic if they get it together.

    We can do it as long as we don't go after the "big names"!

    All we need is a decent point guard (Conley) and an above-average center (Whiteside). The problem is that we continue to chase the big stars and miss out on building an actual team.
