I think we'll go 7-4 or 6-5. That's 48 or 49 wins and possibly a 4th seed.

The one vote for 42 must be punching air about now....

I didn't get any vote below 44 wins TBH. The most conservative models said 44+. Magic fans are funny.

Thoughts being brutally honest :
- Too many people post all-star trade deadline was weeping and gnashing of teeth
- This created a "all is doom and gloom" we have "to many holes" I even hear the "treadmill team" that will "never amount to anything"
- There are way too many people here who like "other people" and therefore will look for any glaring weakness to justify their guy
- I mean it is totally possible we don't win another game from here, but if you are a Magic fan, you are knowing what it will take for that to happen.
- There are a lot of people here who really just want to blow it up around Franz + Paolo and want to build a flashy team

I wish Im wrong with my 45 prediction because that is too close to call esp with teams like PHI IND MIA breathing down our necks

6-5 to finish the year, we're getting to 48 and 5th seed at worst (don't know how strong NYK CLE and IND will finish their seasons out)

And to think, all you had to do was click the 50+ button and you wouldn't have this problem.

I know right... its just like saying, If only I could have bought lots of real estate or invested n apple stocks when I was in the 2nd grade, I wouldn't be worried financially nowadays.

Can only afford two more losses from here on out

That will give us something to look forward to next season, then. Still possible though.

It will give us something to say "see we are fools gold!"

Need to go 8-2. We lost the first game I thought we'd win. I'm going to say that the two losses are @Pelicans and @Bucks and we rip through the rest of the schedule in convincing fashion.

3/29 vs LA Clippers
3/30 vs Memphis (B2B)
4/1 vs Portland
4/3 @ New Orleans
4/5 @ Charlotte
4/7 vs Chicago
4/9 @ Houston
4/10 @ Milwaukee (B2B)
4/12 @ Philadelphia
4/14 vs Milwaukee

I legit am disappointed we went 1-3 over the last 4.

That slide has the Magic now predicted to close-out 4-4 and finish with a final 47-35 record. (( for weeks the Magic was on target for 48 wins )).

49 still mathematically possible. This is where we look back and we remember that "wanting to be in the playins" was the initial hope for the team. Here we are in a 3-6 seed discussion and mathematically can't do worse then 8th seed.

I believe.
