    Currently, the 8th seed sits at .594 winning percentage. That equates to nearly 49 wins over the course of the season.

    So, I'll say 50 wins just to be safe. :)

    One more win than the 9th place team in the West (or holding the season tie-breaker over that team).

    I think we'll do better that 8th seed. I think we'll get 7th or 6th

    6 of the 7 worst teams in the NBA are from the West thus the West 8th playoff team should have good a pretty good record.

    I would take a stab at 50, like last year.
