Predictions:
Spoiler:
1. We will finish 41-41
2. Possibly, as a 7th or 8th seed. I'm not confident that this team will be the second half team we saw from last year. A lot of things fell our way. It would not surprise me in the least if we missed them. It also wouldn't surprise me if we finished 4th. Not much will separate spots 3-9 in the East.
3.Vucevic (19ppg)
4.Vucevic (11rpg)
5. Fultz (6apg)
6. Isaac (1.5stpg)
7. Isaac (1.5bpg)
8. Possibly, AG is a dark horse but Vuc would be the most likely selection. Depends on our record.
9. Vucevic (3.5) will have the best, Bamba will have the worst (-3.0? up from his -14 from last year )
10. I think Evan and our 2020 pick could get moved by the trade deadline. I don't see it as likely though. I wouldn't rule out an AG trade depending on how good/bad we start.
Bold prediction:
Spoiler:
1) I don't have 5 but my bold prediction this year is that Fultz is our starter by December. I'm anticipating major regression from DJ's career year last year. Both as a playmaker and as a shooter. I think Fultz will show enough as a playmaker and as a defender to warrant the start over DJ and I feel like us getting off to a slow start could accelerate it.
NBA predictions:
Spoiler:
1. Who will win NBA League MVP? Giannis
2. Who will win NBA Rookie of the Year? NAW (Zion is the clear favorite if healthy)
3. Who will win NBA Coach of the Year? Brett Brown
4. Who will win NBA Most Improved Player? Fox (I think he's a candidate for an All-NBA selection)
5. Who will win NBA 6th Man of the Year? Lou Will
6. Will a coach be fired during the season? If yes, who will the first one be? Scott Brooks
7. Who will be the 8 playoff teams in the East? Mill,Philly,Boston,Toronto,Indiana, Miami, Brooklyn, Orlando
8. Who will be the 8 playoff teams in the West? Clips, Denver, Lakers, Houston, Utah, Portland, San Antonio, Pelicans
9. What will the NBA Finals matchup be? Clips vs Philly
10. Who wins the NBA Title and in how many games? Clippers in 6

1. Injury free: 44:38 Top 4 players missing ~20 games combined: 38:44 2. Injury free: 6th Top 4 players missing ~20 games combined: 9th 3. Vuc: 19.5 ppg 4. Vuc: 11 rpg 5. Fultz: 5.5 apg 6. Fultz: 1.5 spg 7. Bamba: 1.8 bpg 8. Vuc if we are on a playoff spot at the time 9. Vuc +6 / still Bamba -8 10. If DJ reverts back & Fultz can't shoot AG
Bold predictions: Fultz averages 15 & 8 the last 20 games I fear another Bamba injury Vuc with 4+ Assists
1. Giannis back to back 2. Zion 3. Brad Stevens 4. Isaac (Homer pick) 5. Lou Williams 6. No, maybe Pierce in Atlanta 7. Bucks / Sixers / Celtics / Raptors / Nets / Magic / Heat / Pacers (Last 4 interchangable) 8. Clippers / Rockets / Nuggets / Lakers / Jazz / Blazers / Warriors / Spurs 9. Rockets (i doubt Clippers or Lakers are healthy) vs. Sixers 10. Sixers in 7

BOLD PREDICTIONS
Bamba takes a major step forward this season and becomes a front line player Fultz takes the starting spot within 20 games Ross regresses big time - shoots less than 40% from the field and becomes a liability, 2nd worst NET to Fournier I will continue to bitch about the Okeke (please stop using the phrase you’ve been using - Knightro) over NAW or Kevin Porter draft fiasco Playoff Vuc will re-appear this season and we'll all bitch again about what a mistake it was to bring him back

Record: 44 wins healthy, 36 wins with significant injuries
Playoffs: 8th seed (but in mix for 5-8).
Leaders PPG - I think the gap between Vuc, AG and Isaac narrows this season. APG - Fultz/AG SPG+BPG - Isaac
Bold Predictions: - We slump hard in Dec/Jan and force management into some early moves when the playoffs seem to be slipping our grasp. - Bamba + Fournier for NAW + JJ approaching the deadline. - Isaac takes a big jump offensively. Maybe not a huge spike in numbers, but the way he gets his points will evolve. I see him handling the ball, attacking the rim and dishing more, and being our FTA leader per game.

ORLANDO MAGIC PREDICTIONS
1. What will the Orlando Magic’s record be in 2019-2020? 42-40 2. Will the Magic make the playoffs? If yes, what seed? yes, 7th (again) 3. Who will lead the Magic in PPG and how much? Vucevic, 18.7 4. Who will lead the Magic in RPG and how much? Vucevic, 10.3 5. Who will lead the Magic in APG and how much? Fultz, 5.4 6. Who will lead the Magic in SPG and how many? Isaac, 1.7 7. Who will lead the Magic in BPG and how many? Isaac, 1.4 8. The Orlando Magic will have an all-star? If yes, who? Yes, Vucevic 9. Who will have the best and worst NET rating on the Magic and what will be be? Best- Isaac +4.8, Worst- Iwundu -3.3 10. Will the Magic make a trade during the regular season? If yes, who will be moved? Yes, Fournier and Birch
ORLANDO MAGIC BOLD PREDICTIONS Predict 3 bold things that will happen with the Magic this season. Must be something NOT obvious. 1. Fultz will come in and play respectably as a quality backup guard, and roughly match Augustin's production but will not start for continuity purposes. 2. Jonathan Isaac will be a 1st team all defense player this year, but wont receive any votes for DPOY. 3. Bamba will play respectably but not good enough to placate those questioning him but not bad enough for him being on the court could be argued to be bad for the team.
NBA PREDICTIONS 1. Who will win NBA League MVP? Damien Lillard 2. Who will win NBA Rookie of the Year? Zion Williamson 3. Who will win NBA Coach of the Year? Terry Stotts 4. Who will win NBA Most Improved Player? Derrick Favors 5. Who will win NBA 6th Man of the Year? Bogdanovic (Kings version) 6. Will a coach be fired during the season? If yes, who will the first one be? Yes, (Insert Suns coach here) 7. Who will be the 8 playoff teams in the East? Bucks,76ers,Pacers,Celtics,Heat,Raptors,Magic,Nets 8. Who will be the 8 playoff teams in the West? Clippers,Blazers,Nuggets,Rockets,Warriors,Jazz,Spurs,Kings 9. What will the NBA Finals matchup be? Bucks vs Blazers 10. Who wins the NBA Title and in how many games? Bucks in 6
I can already hear the questions so the answer is that I dont think AD and LeBron will be healthy enough to get the Lakers to the playoffs in the West.

I'm gonna break trend and offer a different type of prediction for the season. More of a general narrative and overview.
Kicking off, I think we get clear of the gates and then stumble. Lose a few we should've won. Then we go on a strong run up until December. We're looking like a potential top 4 team at this point.
December through January are the toughest points for our teams. It's likely from a variety of issues ranging from schedule strength to roster health, but it's so much more interesting just to assume the team has a collective mental hurdle around the months of December and January, so I'm doing that. This season, I think the wheels slowly fall off the bus at the start of December, and then from Christmas onwards we slide hard through January. We're now 12th in the East, and it's tight from 8-12.
Late Jan we start to rally, picking up momentum going into the all-star break. Is it because a trade has happened? Is it because we have another, possibly multiple all-stars this season? Who's to know. But we're now 10th in the East, but 8th is in range.
Then, we go hard to close out the season again. But this time we're a key player down for what looks like the remainder of the season. (Who is it?! No idea, but someone we will miss). We scrap hard and dog and tooth it into 8th.
The Bucks. Coach Bud has led another regular season leading team, and they're really rolling. Our injured player battles his way back on to the court, probably too early, but he's infected by the hustle of the team.
Early on, we steal a game. And for a brief moment we convince ourselves we have a chance! But we don't. You can't stop Giannis. We can't, anyway.
Overall, we're all happy with the grit and hustle the team showed. How much better would we have been if (X) hadn't missed games? Is this the ceiling on the team? And then we all discuss how to dismantle the team, or not for another summer - and it will be great fun all over again!
