There going to win 50 games, win the division, and make it to the Western Conference Finals.

You have an extra " mark in your name, and your spelling/grammar needs work.

Welcome, whoever you are!

WRONG! Our record will be 64 wins and 16-0 in the playoffs!

"KingOfMagnifiedSpeed" is a pretty good handle for a super homer thread, I'll give you that.

I'm kind of partial to "SheedSoNasty". Love that name.

Nevermind on the first part. I didn't catch the "The" reference without the space. LOL

THE is supposed to be capitalized, rook.

50 games would not be good enough to be a WCF contender.

Is this the genetically engineered child of Kingspeed and Mags?

One of my biggest fears is that they will win the 8th seed in the west and miss out on a good lottery pick. However, if a group of guys this young does that then maybe you could argue they really don't need the pick.

Exactly the point I've made several times. I'd rather have a good group of young players with room to grow than add a top-5 pick to a pile of crap.

Exactly!!! If we actually make the playoffs with the youngest team in the NBA (without Kaman), then there is much more upside. That would mean a couple players of the Vonleh, Leonard, Plumlee, CJ and Alexander have stepped up their game drastically.

Being a bottom feeding team would mean those players are a long way from being a contributor in the NBA

And that's where I disagree. We have a bunch of guys who are, or could become, solid 4th-8th men. The question is whether any of them can join Dame as our 1-3 option. We can find solid contributors and still be a "bottom feeder" in a very competitive WC. This is not going to be a one year rebuild.

We can agree to disagree then

Think we will be a surprise team for sure. I think we'll win some games people don't expect and be better than most are predicting.

Substitute "LA" for Dame, and that entire paragraph was applicable to the summer of 2012. Guess what we saw then.

A one-year rebuild.

No one will expect us to make the playoffs. If we do make it, we'll be Cinderella story of the season

Sweet. A flying pony with a rainbow rocket jet spewing out of its ass. Nothing says unexpected success like that.

Agreed, it was outstanding. Never read that dude before, but I'll be looking for his stuff in the future.

Yeah man! He had a little BNM with how he uses analytics smoothly in discussion.

Are you talking about Kamloops?

What? No Damian MVP talk? I know Homers and you, Sir, are no Homer
