continue to play like this. do you think we can win like we have been doing lately. i mean our next 5 games are: vs. charlotte @ memphis vs. indiana @ miami vs. atlanta i think we can win all of these games (or maybe go 4-1 with a loss to miami) and if we do then that would put us at 11-3 or 10-4 before we head out to the 6 game road trip, where we play utah, seattle, portland, clippers, sacramento, and indiana. if we can go 3-3 or 4-2 on the trip (which is very possible seeing that the jazz will have to cool off at some point along with the clippers, and we seem to be very good on the road this year) so lets say we win the next 5 and the go 4-2 on the road trip, that would mean we would be 15-5 20 games into the season, heading into a stretch where we play 7 of 8 games at home and the only road game is in charlotte...so we could be seeing a 21-7 record going into cleveland for the game against the cavs...i think im getting ahead of myself here but hey i think we could do it, how about you guys?
These games are very winnable and I could see us winning all 5 coming up, but our team is just so inconsistent and all of our turnovers are bound to catch up to us eventually. West coast trips are extremely hard to come out of over 500. We aren't that good of a team yet to realistically expect a winning record on this road trip. Realistically I see us either going 3-2 or 4-1 in these next 5 games and 2-4, 3-3 on the west road trip. So I see us at worst case scenario being 11-9 after that streak with a best case scenario of 13-7.
Crazy person Nah, I would love to see that, and they are winnable, but you know the Magic are gonna have their ups and downs. They could very well lose against Charlotte coming up. We gotta cut down on turnovers, cuz we aren't gonna shoot 50%+ every night.
Miami isnt that great anymore, they should got lit up by the Knicks. I think we can run the table on the next 5 games. Turnovers are a huge problem but an effective bench has come through for us when we needed them. Hopefully Dwight and Jameer can pick it up and that way we dont have to rely on the bench to win or pick us in the game and they can hold the lead or extend it. I think we have a good shot of winning our divison. I dont think anyone expected Miami and Detriot to be struggling the way they are, but age catches up with you and Pistons miss Big Ben. I think the Cavs and Magic have a good squad that can play against the Pistons, Heat and Nets.
man if we can just cut down the stupid TO's, i mean the bad angle interior passes (we are averaging like 4 of those per game), and traveliong calls and palming (5 per game) we would be down to like 12 which is good, the other turnovers are forced...we would be 9-0 instead of 6-3
vs. charlotte (we already won) @ memphis W vs. indiana L @ miami W vs. atlanta L You notice how I put loss against Atlanta right? Well, it's true I believe we could lose to them. This team is very inconsistent and doesn't perform well against bad teams.

I was surprised that we lost to Memphis. What is going on? Dwight looked amazing but everyone else disappeared.
