Official Bucks Prediction Thread - LOCKING AT NOON 10/18 

Post#1 » by MickeyDavis » Mon Oct 16, 2017 12:34 pm

Ok guys, here's your chance to predict how the team will do this upcoming season. Predict team record, seeding and playoff results if you pick them to make the playoffs.

Please keep your comments only on predicting how the team will do. Keep all trade ideas and similar comments out of this thread, we have other threads for those. Anything posted not related to wins/losses, seeding, etc... WILL be eliminated.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I think this is the year we actually win a playoff series. I predict a slow start, lots of doom and gloom on the board, finish strong, 49-33. Fourth seed. First round win, second round exit in 6.

51-31 3rd seed
Giannis doesnt win MVP but pulls up a close 3rd.

Win 1st playoff series, lose in the 2nd.
Brown plays more than Wilson.

Kidd is comfortably safe. :(

I'm going with 46-36, 4th/5th seed, win a playoff series against whichever awful team is the 5th seed. I don't think our team is that good, but the East is awful.

Maybe if his name was Denise instead of Dennis.
