I'll go on a limb and say that the Lakers will win out the rest of the month. _________________

I don't expect 12-4 ball the rest of the way but we should at least win slightly over half our games. |

That would be awesome, though of course we had Kobe (who could single handedly win a game), PJax (best coach ever), and a big wildcard in Kwame Brown (played surprisingly up to his original #1 pick potential until Phx called in a suspect rape allegation...)
I give this team a 0% chance to beat the dubs. Yes, I realize this is your "dream" |

Hey man, 0% implies certainty, like "I'm certain my Aunt Clara doesn't have any testicles". We competed hard in 3 games against them so we gotta at least bump our odds up to 5% |

From 1st to 30th... what numerical ranking would you give the team?
Not where we end up by the end of the season in terms of record, but in terms of quality right now and how we will finish the last 30 games of the season.
Do you think we are the 10th best team? or the 20th? What number would you predict? |

We went from 0-9 worst in the league to 12-4 2nd best in the league... 0.500 the rest of the way! |

Looking at the remaining schedule I think we can finish the last 30 games going 15-15. If we end up doing that and winning 36 games I'd chalk that up as a very successful season. Before preseason my prediction was 35 wins. |

IT looks pretty done for the season... I think he can be better next year though... so this year, looks like the ship is sinking. _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

Lol... I appreciate the replies, but I wondered where you all thought we ranked.
I'd say anywhere between 10th to 16th. In fact I might even say that only 8 teams are definitively better than us... and we'd be even with a lot of teams in that middle tier. |

I just really really want us to win as much as possible to screw over the Celtics and 76ers salivating over our pick. Lets give the sixers a mid round pick who turns into a bust! _________________ (bleep) Kawhi |

schedule favors us, and a lot of home games.
only 1 game left with rockets and warriors
done with boston and toronto.
2 games with spurs but kawhi is still out and not sure when he will return
2 games with timberwolves but would not be surprised we took 1
games with heat, detroit, clipper may be the best of the rest.
so may be 2 super tough games, 4 tough games where we are underdogs, and the rest are all winnable. |

I do not think you are far off. We could realistically go 5-1 and be 4 games under .500 going into March. |

clearly significantly better than us: warriors, houston, wolves
better than us: wolves, boston, thunder, raptors
not sure due to injuries: spurs |

Let's keep rolling! I am really only worried about the Jazz who have been as hot as we have been lately. I anticipate the Pels and the Clips will fall by the wayside. If we get a healthy ball back and the rest of the fellas keep playing like they are now? Watch out, that 8'th seed is within reach! _________________ R.I.P. Doc Buss |
