    Schedule Until the All-Star Break (8 games)
    @ Indiana
    vs. LA Lakers (I'm going to this game, box seats too)
    vs. LA Clippers
    @ Detroit
    vs. Miami
    vs. New Jersey
    @ Minnesota
    vs. Milwaukee

    And then, of course, we have the All-Star break and then 2 days after that break we have a HORRID 5-game west coast swing (Kings, Suns, Lakers, Jazz, Rockets).

    So, when do you see us getting that next win? We are on an embarrassing 11 game losing streak and you can definitely see the anger and frustration in Doc Rivers. I want these kids to get a win, even if it's just one, before the All-Star break to give them a little more confidence. They have been fighting so hard, they deserve at least one win.

    So, my question to you is when do you guys see our next win coming? I think it's possible that we win in Indiana tomorrow, but after that we have a very tough schedule of the Lakers, Clippers, Pistons, and the healthy Heat. We could sneak a win or two in the last 3 games before the All-Star break, but maybe that's just wishful thinking. When do you guys see our next win coming? One of these next 8 games before the break, or one after the break?

    You guys are F*cked. When does Pierce get back? I think you have a chance to scrap off wins against teams like Indiana, LA Clippers, Milwaukee, and Minnesota, but you guys are F*cked for the year.

    Really, CB4? I really didn't know that. Usually when a team starts off with a 12-31 record with most of their key players injured, they have a large chance at making the playoffs. [​IMG] I obviously wasn't talking about us making any sort of run this season, CB4. My mom, who has watched 1 game this season, could point that out.

    But Pierce isn't expected to come back until maybe after the All-Star break. But not to worry, we have Wally back!!! [​IMG]

    When I say F*cked, I mean you're going to end up being one of the worst teams in the League.

    Yeah, I know. But I was talking about the season, not the draft. When I said F*cked, I meant that you will have to fight for your life to get any wins during this stretch...

    Yeah we aren't a lock to get them. Oden isn't even a lock to come out this season, to tell you the truth. And with our luck, Pierce will come back and we'll end up dropping to 3rd or 4th.

    Getting Joakim Noah would be a major dissapointment. I think his potential is vastly overrated. He is a good defensive prospect, but his offensive skills don't impress me.

    Of course we'd all like to have Oden or Durant than Noah, and probably Brendan Wright (although it is definitely debatable), but Noah would fit with our team SO nicely. Big Al will be an All-Star type big man, and Noah could compliment him beautifully with his defensive abilities, athleticism, and leadership. Then, a frontcourt tandem off the bench in Perk/Gomes would be nice as well.

It would be a huge dissapointment if you got the 4th pick instead of the 2nd. Kevin Durant is as athletic as they get, great shooter, very tall. He's going to be a superstar offensive player, whereas Noah will be a good defensive player and a 12-14 ppg scorer imo...

    I'd just like to point out that the depth of the draft doesn't matter at all if you're in the top 3.

    Yeah, I agree that Noah's offensive potential is limited, and I have said that in the past plenty of times. I don't think he'll be a real All-Star, and if he ever does make it there, it will be for defense only (much like Big Ben). Yes, of course it would be kind of a disappointment if we didn't get Oden or Durant, but all I was saying is that Noah would still definitely fit beautifully with our team should we unfortunately get a lower pick in the draft.

    I'm not sure, I don't think very many people are. Its important to know with this team is that you shouldn't expect to win. Right now the winning were doing is the development of our your guys, and until Pierce gets back thats a much as we can hope for. I do feel this young team can and will pull out a victory very soon. These guys have skill and they are getting better as a team. Lets just hope to see the team move on up.

    Only games I can see them winning are possibly the Heat, Timberwolves, and Bucks. The Heat have really been struggling as of late but have been pretty close in all their the games. The Wolves have lost 7 of 8 so this is probabaly their best chance, and the Bucks arn't doing good either but will have Villanueve, Williams, and Redd back by the time they play the Celtics. Not looking too good for the Celtics.

    F*ck Oden. We want Durant!Oh and BTW: Anyone think my sim league roster is good? I'm gonna try to get Emeka to replace Kendrick. Then trade away Ratliff.
