We are 5-5 now.....
vs. OKC WIN
@NYK LOSS
@CLE LOSS
vs. BOS LOSS
vs. HOU LOSS
vs. MIA WIN
vs. LAC WIN
@OKC LOSS
@CHA WIN

That's a tough schedule. Not to mention the first two games of December are @BOS, @ATL.

9-10 could be fine. I voted 10-9 but it was more wishful than realistic.

Hate to say it but I could see us going 3-6 in that stretch. I'm hoping for 9-10, but voted 8-11.

I still believe we will make a nice run once at full health but we aren't there yet and will continue to struggle on the road.

I voted 8-11. There are no "easy wins" in that group really. The game vs the Heat is the closest to being easy, so I'll give us that one.

8-11 assumes we'll take two of the "not so easy" wins, which I think sounds about right without Reggie.

I voted 9-10 which I think is most realistic for us given what I've seen so far. 10-9 is possible but we'd have to start playing better on the road.

I think the likeliest range is from 7-12 to 9-10 - and then two probable losses after that.

I hope this board is not losing its mind when we are 7-14 or 8-13. We'll pull ourselves up after that.

10-9 sounds about right.

Likely lose to the Harden Rockets, beat Miami, lose to the Clips...

7 & 10...RJ returns v Westbrook and we win, smoke Kemba and the Hornets on the road and the whole board starts talking MVP for RJ lol

playing the awful basketball of the last 3 games we'd consider us lucky to steal the one against Miami...

We stole one without our embarrassing supposed franchise player and it was the only game I enjoyed this season.

for Christ's sake, we managed to lose in BKN and Phoenix and you still talk about board losing its mind?

We lost to Brooklyn last year when we were full strength. Reggie Jackson helped us eke past the Chandlerless and Markieffless Suns in OT last year. We were full strength then. We're missing our most influential player now.

It's strange that people thought we were going to get past this part of the schedule with a winning record and now think we're a lottery team because we won't. We weren't ever going to end November 10-9 or 11-8....

Anyway, we were a possession away in each of these last two games. A couple bounces going the other way and we would actually be 8-7 and perhaps on our way to doing what I thought was impossible - a winning November.

we weren't supposed to close november at 7-12, too. won't be that easy to win more than Miami one.

and we made signings in order to have a more reliable bench and don't be obliged to give minutes to Blake, Tolliver...

every team must deal with injuries. every team. Boston had Horford out for a couple of weeks, Indiana has George injured, and so on.

we were supposed to become a 46-48 w team, unfortunately we aren't.

It's strange, you apparently thought much more of the team's ability to go through this tough stretch without Reggie Jackson than I did. I thought 7-12 or 8-11 (7-14 or 8-13 after the first two games of December). So you were higher on the Pistons than me. But now maybe you, or at least others are predicting we're a lottery team? It seems like a number of people have gone from one extreme to the other while I'm just standing still in the middle.
