0.600

A win on Sunday would put us at 0.600 for the first time since...I don't know...since Nellie sent Billy O to Miami and broke Webber's heart.

I know they're doing it with smoke and mirrors and are ripe for a fall, but right now they're winning, so yee-haw. I'll save the gloom for when Baron get's injured in a billiards tournament in March or whatever.

.600 precedes back to back roadies in Houston and New Orleans.

I'll go out on another limb and predict .600 is short lived.

If it even happens. Unlike the Nets, the Knicks have actually played a decent game or two in the last two weeks. Decent is the Warriors' worst enemy of late it seems.

The Knicks have been playing much better without Starbury. Warriors better not take them lightly.

But Rowell your limbs are getting sturdier and sturdier. Why not really lay it all out and say the Warriors may but will probably not finish at .700 this season?

We own Houston, and the NO game is followed by Charlotte, Chicago, Sacramento, Washington all at home, so 0.600 should be back stronger than ever.

We can finish through Feb around 35-22 = 0.614. That should be good for 7th.

Something will happen before the trade deadline for us. Who knows what.

Challenge accepted.

The Warriors definitely will not finish this season at or above .600.

Mbook it.

(that means they won't win 50 games)

How about 49?

82-49 = 33

49-33 =.59756, rounded up = .6.

Not that I'm a professional mathemetician, but if my memory is correct, .59756 rounds up to .598 as a reflection of won-loss percentage, which is not quite .600.

Sitting at 26-18, throw out the 1-6 record before Jax' return, it become 25-12. 25/37 =0.67567!!! With 38 games left, at this pace it would equate to 25.6 wins! I'll lower my expectations to a 0.63 winning percentage for the remaining games and it becomes 23.9 ~~ 24 wins. 26+24=50. Tada!!

Remember the Warriors have 9 home games and 1 road game in all of February. Very important stretch.

It's a matter of health. Beans has room for improvement - he's playing worse than the first half of last season right now, and by a pretty wide margin. Monta is stepping up big. Barnes is returning to form. Baron seems healthy. Stephen is banged up but I believe he is actually starting to play better than he was in his bad stretch (he was trying to share the ball a lot in the Nets game). Al is better than last year. If those 6 stay healthy and don't suffer a regression, 50 games is quite possible*.

Which doesn't mean it likely, just that I can't rule it out yet.

My pre-season pick was that the Warriors miss the playoffs.

*And then there is the wildcard: Brandan.

Depends on how many decimal places you use. If you noticed, I only used one. 49-13, it's close enough. If we can win 49 games this year, me personally, I'll be extremely happy.

turk, I used 3. And so does the NBA, you twit.
