    Blazers are currently 9-3. If the team goes at least 46-24 the rest of the way their record will have 55 wins which would be the best record in 23 years.

    2018-19 53 wins
    2013-14 54 wins
    2008-09 54 wins
    1999-00 59 wins

    Do you think they will do it?

    we keep going the way they are and doing the math on it, we will be 62-20 at the end of the year, so yeah. it's doable.

    For the benefit of everyone, I have chosen no, so you can probably bank on 60 wins and a 1 seed.

    I voted no as well. I think 50 is a nice round number.

    I'm not making predictions, just enjoying the moment.
    Grant and Hart are the forwards I've been dreaming of for years.

    Maybe you should tone it down to something actually achievable? 79-3 maybe?
