I'd be happy enough with 5 - 4 (hopefully better) but can see this getting uglier ending 4 - 5 or 3 - 6. This team still has loads of question marks and inconsistencey.

Goodness, y'all are being optimistic. 6-3 would be fantastic, I won't be disappointed with 5-4 and I wouldn't be surprised with 4-5.

its ridiculous to predict the results in individual games because with this Lakers team i could see us losing to Miami and turning it on for the Pistons. This road trip could make or break our season, it could make the playing group bond together and become tougher mentally as a group, also it might takeaway some of the pressure off Kwame playing away from the Staples Centrer.

This trip could have an adverse reaction where we got 1-8 and we start to fall apart at the seems.

I personally would take 4-5 in these next 9 games get into the All star break let everyone have their rest and then bomb on for whats left of the season.

I like your thinking. But I'm not sure if we can play that well on the road. I see the guaranteed wins as Miami, Charlotte, Minnesota, New Jersey. So that's 4. I think Atlanta may be a tough one and also Washington. So I'll say 6-3. But I wouldn't be surprised with 5-4 or 4-5.

4-5

Losses to Detroit, Toronto, Washington and Orlando.... Atlanta is winnable. I wouldn't be too surprised if they imploded and go 2-7 tho... New Jersey would want to win badly, Charlotte can surprise people.

miami is tanking this year so they willl give us the win for sure..and i think we will take out charlotte minny and jersey...the wizards game might be winnable because caron might still be out by then.
