    What do you guys think? We're nearing the halfway point and we're on pace for 65 wins. Are we gonna win at least 60 this year??

    I think they need to worry about the next game against Philadelphia.

    I'm not asking them. I'm asking you and the rest of the fans here.

    And they've shown us all year that they take every opponent seriously.

    That's right. One game at a time.

    Um they ARE focusing on the next game. What do YOU think about the question? The only answers are yes or no.

    No. 31-18 the rest of the way. 57-25 final record.

    Nope. I think 60 means no major injuries/winning a very high % of close games.
    I'd guess closer to 50. Right in the 48-54 win range.

    You serious? You say we will go 22-27 the rest of the way to finish with 48 wins? Seriously?

    By definition it's a yes or no question. Do you think we will or not?

    Yeah that's an epic meltdown compared to how we're playing now. MFs don't think we can win at a .731 clip? I disagree wholeheartedly.

    It wouldn't shock me if it happened. It would have to be because of a major injury but that's never out of the question in sports.

    While we still have to play some quality opponents on the road, I am having a tough time seeing us lose 18. 60 is definitely a possibility.

    Unless we trade for Chandler/Shumpert and Stotts starts reading all of the threads about defense. Then, we win 70.

    If they can go into OKC the next time with 30 wins, then 60 wins is definitely in order.

    I think they need to worry about the Philadelphia 76ers.
