13 might be enough for the playoffs as an 8th seed.

I think 15 and we're in.

I agree i say 10 and 11. Right now this is a 500 basketball team with alot of promise with 2 lottery picks and a little spending money.

We've been playing a lot better though since Harris and Favors came on. 1-2 that could have easily been 3-0.

We're only 3 games back out of the 5th seed, so anything is possible. We could easily go 8-2 or 7-3 in the next ten games if we beat the teams we should beat.

If Favors and Hayward play more and Bell plays less, then I can see us winning 14 and making the playoffs, but I think Corbin is a little shell shocked right now sort of like a deer in the headlights and he will make no changes. So 11-10 and watchin playoffs on TV.

I was a bit pessemistic and guessed 7. We have a tough schedule, and I don't know how well this team bounces back after losses.

We could easily do twice that well however if we play with the energy we had last night.

we have one of our easiest stretchs coming up but end with a brutal April.

i think we will play just under .500 ball. so like 10-11 or 9-12. Seems possible if we have a good March.

I hope Corbin makes this his team changes the starting line up at the 2. I prefer Hayward, but CJ is better than Bell. Get any D League 2 guard and the results couldn't be worse.

LOL. Looks like nobody wants to win the 5th seed. Hornets just lost in Toronto.

Hopefully, Spurs beat Grizzlies and Rockets beat Blazers later on tonight to keep the seeding even closer.

^^the Blazers lost last night but the Grizzlies won.

Tonight, the Hornets are getting blown out in New York. Same with Phoenix in Boston.
Denver vs Charlotte just started and Portland visits Sac-town later tonight.

Let's hope all 4 teams lose tonight. 2 already down.

Denver looks damn good..5th best team in the west..griz might be better. portland probably gets 7th seed. NOH,houston,utah,suns, are all in limbo. Hard to say.

^^^Yeah, the Nuggets are much better now without Melo. They're actually playing defense now, and they can still run up the score too. They're a stacked team if you look at their roster. But they don't have a go-to guy.

I'm hoping this would be the final standing by the start of the playoffs
1st- Spurs
2nd- Mavericks
3rd- Lakers
4th- Thunder
5th- Denver
6th- Blazers/Hornets
7th- Jazz
8th- Hornets/Blazers

After seeing Jefferson doing whatever he wanted to against Chandler/Haywood, I think the Mavs would be our best match up.

Don't think we'll win but anything is possible when you're facing Dallas in the playoffs. :wink:
