5 game win streak possible??? 

Post#1 » by DWCP2 » Wed Mar 25, 2009 1:36 am

This is what I'm thinking for the rest of this month...

Two games against Chicago, one against Miami and Washington.

Finish 4-0 against that and you got a five game win streak and the Pacers become very much alive in the hunt for one of the final two playoff spots.

lol, I wish I shared the same optimism but the longest winning streak we have had all season has been a 3 game winning streak. And we only did that once. We won't beat Chicago in their hometown cuz they r playing lights out ball @ home and are right trying desperately to hold on for 8th. Chicago also has a pretty easy schedule the rest of the season and r probably gonna finish with about a .500 record which will be impossible for us.

By all means, I hope we can get it, but, it's not looking pretty right now. We shouldn't tank, because at this point purposely losing isn't going to help our lottery chances, and it's a BAD THING TO DO, and I'm still going to be crossing my fingers, but unfortunately the odds are incredibly against us.

Well to make the 8th spot we have to assume we will be Chicago both times. That means we are still in 12th place, but just 1.5 games behind Charlotte.

I can't see it. We are too inconsistent. Chicago is playing for their playoff lives (we technically are, but let's be serious), Miami for playoff seeding, and we will probably lose to the Wizards, because we are fickle like that.

The Wizards also have Arenas back now, so thats not a gimme and as cdash mentioned we seem to loose games like that.

Unfortunately, Chicago is red-hot.
