Guessing 5.

Win vs Cavs, Twolves, Lakers, Rockets, Wizards

Loss to Blazers, Clippers, Bulls

Beating Houston is probably a stretch for this team so 4-4 could be what's likely.

I voted four. I'm guessing two of the first three and two of the last five, though nothing would surprise me. I guess winning less than three would or all 8, but I think this team can go on a run or take a **** at any time.

6 wins with 2 random losses. We can beat all of those teams, Ill guess Portland and Rockets.

I'm going to predict we beat the Cavs tonight and Markieff has a huge game.

We will beat everybody except the rockets and bulls, maybe a L to the wizards but we match up well with them. We have been the kryptonite for the blazers and the clippers wont get that lucky **** in our house and the players will go all out

Here's the next 8 games:

- Portland
- Houston
- LAC
- Washington
- Chicago
@ Golden State
- Memphis
@ Portland

We catch a huge break with Portland
Mike Richman @mikegrich

Here's the full quote from Stotts re: LMA: "He won’t be traveling to Phoenix and hopefully there will be some determination this afternoon."
https://twitter.com/mikegrich/status/557643222617718784


Now, barring an injury, that Memphis game is automatically a loss since we know Grizz don't lose to the Suns ever since acquiring Z-Bo to pair with Gasol. We can get super close to beating them but the win won't actually happen.

Both Portland games are winnable imo. Here's how I'm guessing it (and I'm being positive than realistic with this prediction):

W Portland
L Houston
W LAC
W Washington
L Chicago (if Noah still doesn't play by then, we can win this one)
L Golden State
L Memphis
W Portland

4-4 during this 8 game stretch.

I'm thinking at least 3 of the 4 losses will be in close games which the Suns choke away the lead or do something stupid to hand the other team the win like many of their losses this year.

I stand corrected but nope I wasn't exaggerating, I don't remember these games lol.

Grizz still do have a commanding series lead over the Suns the past 4-5 years.

Halfway there! Got the Rockets up next. They lost 3 out of the last 5 games (2 to the Warriors, 1 to the Thunder). If we can replicate a little bit of what the Warriors do, we should be fine. That means passing and making shots, lol. I hope IT and Green keep it going.
