Heading toward a historic winning streak 

Post#1 » by AaronB » Mon Oct 25, 2021 2:57 am

This should be fun.

I won't create a poll, but predict how many wins in a row.

I am going to predict 1, but I believe it is the most wins in a row for this young of team.

I could be wrong but being an optimist cost just as much as being a pessimist,

this is toughest part of our scheadule this year.

There will probably be time when we do lose 10-15 games in a row, that's normal for teams that struggle to win 25 games. But only 13 times in whole nba history, including all nba teams, there were 20+ games losing streks.

76ers record isn't even really a record, it's continuation of losing over 2 different seasons.

Looks like the Magic might lose 1 or 2 of those games.

I guess a 20 game win streak is not realistic at this point.

The Magic got embarrassed and NY took their foot off the throttle. That happens sometimes when teams have regular season back to backs against the same team. I'll give them credit, they fought back when it looked like they were going to get demolished again in the 2nd Q. But they can easily lose 10-15 games in a row from here on out.

I'm curious how good Chicago actually is. They've played Detroit who was bad enough to get Cade, without Cade twice. And NOP without Zion. Pretty much 3 gimmes so far.

We will see... I pretty much think they are going to get in trouble when they face the vet and big teams. They only have Vuc in their SL who is NOT a rim protector and their next big man is 6'7 P.Will..

Unless they do a PHO SSOL where it's " Dang the defense, just score " I dunno...

Yeah, I'm guessing 5-8th place probably and a first-round exit. Not a team made for the playoffs. Could be fun to watch in the regular season though.

Yeah.. with Ball passing to Lavine or Derozan in the wings.. plus in halfcourt, if they can't create then just throw it to Vuc to let him score... Regular season should be a blast. However, with no starting-calibre PF ( unless Pwill makes that jump despite bing only 6'7) plus a good back-up C... they are going to get demolished.

If we got two or three straight wins we must feel really happy.
Maybe when Kelle is back...
