And with 4 straight wins under their belt, now is the appropriate time to become concerned. man, what a wretched Conference this is. Seven games under .500 and still in the playoff chase. They follow up two terrible months of basketball with a simple 4 game win streak and leap frog numerous teams to get in the playoff chase.

I thought it would atleast take a 7 to 10 game streak. Sad

Coming back from a huge deficit against a top team in the NBA is always a confidence jump. Even with bad teams it last a few games. With a tram with this much talent, it was a kinda obvious turnaround game for them.

4-0 in January, but all teams finally "get it" after Christmas break, so their not the only one who is getting better.

I say they go 0-3 in next three, losing @IND, PHI, and SAS.
Then go 1-5 on 6 game road trip, losing @UTA, @GSW, @LAL, @POR, and @DEN.

It's not only the calendar, there's certainly a bit of Kirilenko in this improvement.

That will mean a 14-31 record.

ATLHawksfan21 wrote:I'm going to guess 4-13. These all look like guaranteed losses but there is a remote chance that they sneak a win in one of these. Indy x2, OKC x2, Mia, SAS, ATL x2, GSW, Dal.


looks like we all sold Brooklyn short. I would not have guessed they were capable of pulling things together like they have. Even if they are on a 3 game losing streak at the moment.

And this guy called it pretty early in the game. Updating RIP's prediction wall, this one goes down as a win.
