    I said 39 wins at least 2 months before this preseason started.

    Just like in 1976-77, Blazers win 49 games…

    That can't be right. To be a contender you have to win 80% of your games. Going by that record they must have had a so-so year, right?

    42-40 unless there’s a significant trade. After watching the preseason games, someone needs to remind Cronin that size matters.

    Is there a specialist around here that knows "Size Matters" that we can send to him and let him know in a way he will understand?

    Well, normally Lanny would be the obvious choice, but if he's not available, we could commission Greg Oden.

    Ignoring the 80 and 0 predictions in this thread, we are at an average of 42 +/- 5 wins as the prediction from this forum so far with 16 entries.

    this might be shockingly accurate from us. I feel like we generally tend to overestimate our success.

    i suppose i can include your 80 and @SIeepwalker 's 0 predictions and we will closely resemble the 42 average calculated earlier. but my standard deviation numbers are gonna get totally screwed.

    @SlyPokerDog is the walking caninification of "standard deviation"

    Preseason sure has seemed to temper some expectations.
