I am now going to compile predictions for this season assuming all games are played we are looking at a 72 game season. I will be betting the Blazers end up 50-22 after the end of this season, I am impressed with the pickups they have made and think this year the Blazers will roll over most opposition.

There are no prizes for this just bragging rights at the end of the season for those that get it right on the money.

Edit: downgrading the number of wins by a bit here.

Well looks like the only one that got it exactly right was Blazinaway, good job!

A couple others were off by 1-2 games which is very close.

This team dramatically overachieved all things considered when looking at injuries.

Yeah, Nurk and CJ missed almost half the year and I was expecting a big contribution from Collins. I put a lot of injury contingency in my prediction but not 3 key players out half the year. I would say Blazers overachieved.

The average prediction from the thread was 44 wins (minus the 72-0 prediciton). Not far off the mark.

Yeah, I feel really good about my estimate had they been healthy... honestly this would have been a 50+ win team had they been healthy.

I missed by 1 but nobody could have known other guys besides the usual suspects would miss so many
games.
