    Yeah, I've followed ball for a few years now. Do you really think they'll only hit 33? Seriously? If so, I'll be closer. I wouldn't bet on it with you though....

    In 2014, the Warriors were coming off a 6 seed season in which they were eliminated in the first round. They didn't make any significant changes to their roster. Did you pick them win 60+ and win the title the next season? There's such a thing as growth. Btw, do you still think we only have one NBA starter-caliber player?

    This.

    @HCP this is also why you caught shit for 11 months from everyone because you severely underestimated Dame as a leader and motivator for this team. Anyone with eyes could see that last years team was going to win more than 23 games.

    Yeah, I just noticed that. Given the Vegas line, I'd say that's a TON closer. Me being a homer, I may lose, but I will still say I will be closer. Tie between us is 53. I'll bet a beer on that with you. Problem is that if you win, then you have to try to enjoy that beer, with a rookie. Sucks to be you.... Lol

    Good call King. Honestly, I hadn't really thought about that. Just going off a gut feeling on my part. I like your 64 prediction. And here I thought I'd be the biggest homer....

    Your actually the third biggest homer from what I can see. Remember I 'Price is Righted' you and predicted 61 wins. You do beat me on seed though.

    Interested in what @Orion Bailey predictions are for this thread and the other threads. Anyone heard from him?

    Honestly, I just want to see us finish higher in the standings than the Spurs. I so much want Aldridge to face more awkward questions about his decision to leave.

    I have issues with letting go.

    Oh yeah, I saw your prediction. That irked me! (in a good way...) There I was thinking my 60 would be high man, and I had to follow your 61..... Lol. I'm sure Orion will be back shortly with his projections and inputs. Just another gut feelin tho....

    I did and I was closer than you, something I guaranteed and that you mocked me for.

    I still never did quit get that though is what I'm saying. You kept talking about how we were going to win 55 games and never came even close. And this year you say we will get more wins than the dam Dubs and it just goes unnoticed.
