    Precisely what Utah did last year. Looked like a Play In team the first 45 games and then slid towards bottom.

    They traded some pieces though for the draft.

    I predicted fewer wins than anyone else in this thread, and it was still too many.

    Although only being off by 1 is not too shabby. Good job, Haymitch.

    But this thread should be a good reminder for everyone to chill tf out when it comes to predicted wins for this upcoming season.

    We lost intentionally last year. We won’t see that again this year owing the pick to OKC. I think mid to high 30’s is realistic. At some point, we turn the page.

    This one is reliant on a strong or weak start into the season.

    27 - I think we go something like 3 -17 or 4-16 to start.

    It is not going to magically gel.

    Fair.

    I would say 30-35 depending on hot runs........or droughts.

    The scoring potential of the young guys plus FVV is there. The rest is up to the coaching staff.

    Make us proud!

    Predict 40+ wins and playoffs. Top 10 defensive team. Major improvement from Jalen Green and Jabari Smith. Eason, Whitmore, and Amen key role players

    Freddie is settling in so would predict his numbers drop a little.

    McGrady‘s numbers came down from 29 ppg to 24 ppg in his first year and he was younger 24-25.
