man we do this every year lol basically if you take the mean of everyones predictions and you subtract around 8-10 wins, you got what we'll get.
if this DOES happen, will we be the first NBA team w/ 2 players who never got out of the first round as stars, a team who never got out of the first round together, go automatically and win the championship? generally, it takes a few yrs b/c u have to get to certain levels first. but who knows, if tmac gets out of that round, he'll win everything lol
I'll go with 55 wins. Not going to try and take our ceiling (62 wins) to be our reality. Even if we lost both Yao and Tracy to injury, this team should give us no less than 45. That's something to feel good about. Evan
I did not put 60 wins, the 60 more win teams normally did not win the title. Look at Mav. Suns, Jazz, Mimm. 59 is a lucky number.
We really have a chance although we have to pick Spurs first, but they were never able to repeat. Also I hope we do not need take a few yrs to win it all because TMac and Yao are the top 10 players then with good players like Scola and Francis. It is up to RA to use them to get the another level. If we can not do something specical, I will start a thread to fire RA next year.
I have been right every year we have done this prediction thread, so all listen well. I PREDICT 56 wins. Only Phoenix does better. Now go place a bet. Dreamshake has spoken.
i agree totally and completely with ur prediction. by the end of march we shall have 56 wins under our belt.
If we end up with only 56 wins with all our talent then Coach A will have been a poor addition. JVG could win 56 wins with our telent.
60-22 with everyone healthy, 54-28 if we have injuries to Yao and Tmac like last season. Scola will be the difference.
53-29 Am expecting a slow start as the team gets used to all the new talent, coaches and system, doesn't help we have a brutal start to the schedule. Team will get stabilized and hit its stride heading into Dec.
