Considering the funk we had before Korver arrived, I think we'll do fine. We've won 10 out of our last 12, so we're actually playing as good as anybody in the west of late. This isn't our year, but I think we definitely have a fair shot at topping 51 from last year. San Antonio is a big question mark this year, and really the only team once again that worries me in a playoff series.

you would never know by the attitude of some of the "fans" here.....only losses to the red hot blazers and a pissed off nuggets team(who were getting the benefit of makeup calls for the game before IMHO) and both road games......

Yeah, I wouldn't say that I don't have my doubts, because this team is anything but easy to disect. Every player on this team has had high streaks and low streaks, including Boozer and Williams, and I'd say it's a little early to have not established any consistency with any player on the team. We still have another half of the season to play, and I'm sure we can work on fixing some of our complexes. but will we even be prepared to go as far as we did last year? Difficult to tell.
thanks

thanks FJS , I never really thought of going back and looking at previous season and look where we were at this point in those season. so that changes my opinion a bit from 39 wins to 44 wins. because if we look at previous season unless we just get extremely hot in the second half just to look at these previous season according to them in 01-02 season we were at 22 wins at mid-season and finished with 44 or 02-03 season 25 wins at mid-season and finished with 47 wins. so yeah that changes my opinion to be a little more optimistic about this team.
cause if we really think about it even if we win only 4 more road games for the rest of the season (which is possible and I really think they will win about double that [8] by the end of the season so looking at about 12 road wins on the season) and if we can finish with a similar record at home like a 18-3 or 17-4. so at the end of this season we could be looking at about 44 to 47 wins, SWEET!
BUT my only concern is the teams ahead of us have to fall. Lakers with Bynum out for 8 weeks will really hurt them, Davis in Golden State can his knees hold up, can Portland's inexperience really catch up to them or are they for real, and last does the Iverson and Anthony thing hold or implode, really their success is depended on Camby being healthy (and George Karl commented on that about a month ago on a radio interview saying "that not dissin A.I. or Melo but Marcus would be the toughest for him and his team to lose to injury or trade")?

This team is still among the best in the league. It's obvious watching them out on the court that they are regularly the better team, the problem has been mental lapses at key points in games, and lack of intensity on the defensive side of the ball on the road. Aside from that, we're playing as well as any team in the league outside of Boston.
I have a hard time seeing us topping our victory total from last year, and I've been vocal in the past in saying that I think we will eventually get it together and put up 50+ victories, but I'm beginning to doubt that now.
I say we finish with exactly 50, and that we catch fire in the playoffs again. The one thing that is keeping me optimistic about our chances is remembering how Memo and (sort of) Booz were entirely different players defensively in the playoffs. Memo actually looked like an above average Center on that end, and Booz looked much more focused and locked in than he did during the regular season. If we can win 50 games and secure either the 5th or 6th seed, that will pit us against either NO or Denver/Portland (winner of our division) OR it will give us our division and pit us against the 5th seed (again, likely to be NO or Dallas).
I think we're still easily the better team than New Orleans is, and Dallas would have a nightmare matching up with us over a 7 game series.
I know things have looked gloomy so far, but this season's success or failure will be determined by the playoffs, not regular season win/loss total. With the rampant inconsistency in the West this year, we have a great shot to make some noise.
Current expectations: 50-32, trip to the WCF
