Could this year's Hawks possibly be a .500 team?

We've all read the odds. Somewhere in the mid 20's seem to be the tops in wins for this year's Hawk team.
I believe Vegas has us at 27.5 wins. Question: How do we win that .5 game? I know. It has something to
do with betting odds, which I don't understand.
Back to the main topic. Those odds of 27.5 wins comes out to mean, Atlanta will win one and lose two from
beginning to end of the season. Are the Hawks this bad? Those fans who preach, "Tank! Tank!" hope that
is true. They believe that our entire future hinges on that elusive super star available in next year's draft.
He is sure to come to us if we lose enough games.
Then, there are the fans on the entire other end of the stick. I am one of those who refuse to believe that
this year's Hawks will become the door mat of the NBA. All other NBA teams will be wiping their feet on
us as they walk all over Atlanta. -
We are told by these expert NBA thinkers that all the good players that Atlanta had on their roster last season,
with the exception of Dennis, are gone. They have been replaced by bench players only, not starters. Seem
they believe we have Dennis and a pretty good G league team, trying to compete at the NBA level.
To me, these great thinkers have insulted our coach, our GM, and all the players on our roster. Our second
year players, our rookies we drafted and signed and all the others. Bull Feathers! We ain't that bad! In fact,
this year's Hawk team will have these experts eating their words.
41 wins? My goodness! That's winning half their games and not one third that is expected. This can't be.
If Atlanta win that many they miss that great, all world draft pick that guarantees them the championship
every year in the future! They probably make the playoffs. What would this G league team do there?
Yep. This year's Hawk team will be as good or better than last year's! GASP ! You heard it here first.
(Note: This Hawk team can hit their free throws!)
