    Our seven upcoming games are pretty much gimmes:

    Rockets
    Bulls
    at Suns
    Timberwolves
    at Nets
    at Pistons
    at Wizards

    Those are all winnable. The only game that scares me is the game in Phoenix. But if we pull it off....

    Eight Game Win Streak, bitches!!!!

    Blazers are a solid road team and the Nets can't guard our starting 5. No team can, actually.

    Yes. Beat the Mighty Lakers and shutdown the best player in the league IN Houston. There were a few games we should've won. We should be 6-2 right now.

    I think 5-3 would be quite reasonable. You do know Chicago is very good, right? Also the Pistons have just turned it around, the Nets have real talent, Scola always gives Aldridge fits, the Wolves are like zombies... All I'm saying is we should prepare for your mood to swing massively the other way.

    But yes, if we don't beat the Wizards, we really are shit.

    the other teams will likely forfeit the night before, so they will be getting extra practice sessions in

    ring the bell, boys! ring that goddamn bell!

    Do you mean 4-3 or 5-2 or are you including the Kings game like I am?

    Hmm. In 153 minutes they've outscored the other team by 27. That's decent, but quite a lot of 5-man units are better, certainly per minute. (Boy, looking at those stats, the Cavs must have an even worse bench than we do.)

    Among players who have shot more than 40 three pointers, Wesley Matthews is 2nd in 3ptFG%.

    Batum is third in steals

    blazers have two of top 19 Scorers. Three other teams have that: Heat, Thunder, and Lakers (good company)

    Eric I love you....... but this is why you create these doomsday end of the world threads as well. You just set yourself to be let down. Why can't you look at this next 8 games realistically?
