538 projecting us at 50-32. Still a 2% chance to win it all.

They have us at a 99% chance of playoffs. Which I would agree that it would take some serious collapse to miss the playoffs.

They also have us at a 1606 rating. Last year at this point they had us at a 1492, we climbed to 1703 in the playoffs last year. I expect another big climb in our ELO rating.

Only 10 more losses for the season!

Yep.

At Wolves
At Blazers
At Dubs
At Thunder
At Nuggets
At Lakers

I see those six as losses. We probably lose once to the Spurs, once to the Clips or Pels, and have a couple brain farts.

If we’re healthy and truly gaining focus, I think 52 wins is possible.

I think based on this we can get the 3rd seed. We have the easiest schedule in the West left. I dont think we can catch the Nuggets unless they collaspe. But frankly I would love to see us at the 3rd seed with Nuggest at the 2nd. If we beat the 6th seed in the first round I feel pretty confident if healthy we can beat the Nuggets or the 7th seed.

I dont feel like we, or anyone, can compete with GS unless they have an injury to Curry or Durant and even then I would favor GS. The next two teams I would least like to see if healthy are Houston and OKC.

That would be perfect. I dont think GS is beatable either unless they have some major injuries.

Last year that would have been good enough for the 3 seed and a 2 game improvement. I am expecting the 3 seed this year.

Yep, last year the Rox had 65 wins and the Dubs had 58. The Blazers were the 3rd seed with 49 and then the Thunder, Jazz and Pels were seeds 4-6 with 48 wins apiece.

Given greater depth in the conference with vastly improved Lakers, Kings and Mavs teams this season. I think if we get to 49-50 wins, we should be able to snag the 3rd seed.
 
Gun to my head, I predict 48 wins and the 4 seed. I have a feeling we’ll lose one to the Clips AND one to the Pels and one to the Wolves, and have 3-4 losses like maybe at the Bulls, Charlotte at home and one more. Prob against the freakin Hawks.

I think we will win both Wolves games.

Someone in the media needs to slip in a the question to Mitchell (next week) that he's never beaten the ATL Hawks and just let that sit in his brain, that outta guarantee those 2 wins.

I agree with this.
