This prediction probably isn't even be bold any more. Magic finish with a better record than the Hornets. Poor Clifford.

Sneaking into the play-in would probably be mine. I do think there’s a shot if things break right for us health wise.

If they don’t, we could easily finish with one of the 4 worst records.

Suggs MIP

Paolo RoY

Franz cements himself as our go-to guy for the future.

Agreed. I'd think a player would have to jump to all-star level.

Makes sense why they don't. rookie- sophmore leap is expected and by numbers, that's a year most prolific players make biggest leap in development.

Exactly, which makes me wonder why so many of you people were throwing dirt on this kids grave.

Happy to report that I actually managed this, even though I was tempted at times. So I really only did it because I randomly posted this once, and general stubbornness. Just did a spin for the first time, and we got 7th and 9th (blegh, OKC and Washington jumped us).

How did your predictions/resolutions fare thus far?

Here is my Homer bold-prediction: Orlando makes the play-ins AND wins two games to make the playoffs.


Well, I am not that far off the plauy0in concept. And the 30+ wins seems certain now.

36-46 is my current "Bold Prediction"

So: did my first spin of the year today.

Orlando 4 and the Bulls pick 9.

Then the next 4 pulls
6/9
7/9
7/9
2/4 (the Magic lose the Bulls pick)

JBSouthpaw wrote:Franz leads the team in Assists.
we have at least 5 players average 4+ assists.
Franz, Paolo, Cole are locks. Suggs, Fultz should and WCJ could


I was close on mine.
the 1st 5 I list have 3.2 assists or higher, with Fultz and Cole over 4. WCJ at 2.5.

I've been very happy with the season, but this was a bit disappointing to me, as a team I thought we'd average more APG.
We are 4th worst & worse than last year :dontknow:
I guess a bit more iso with Paolo.

My bold prediction is that Magic have 5th best odds and Bulls have 8th. The bulls lands the #2 pick and the Magic fall to #7. Which will lead to a full Summer of complaining from our wonderful fanbase :)

Just did a single tankathon.com pull: Magic #9 and #12(Bulls). LOL

On pulls three, four, and five: the Magic went top-4 with a 3, 3, and 2.
