I meant 5-4 for Portland(I'll edit that). They can go 6-3 but I want them to win exactly 50 so I can win the prediction contest. I know I am selfish. I think Portland could go 6-3 for 51 wins. With Baby Dame coming I think he may cost of us an extra game though. Minnesota has by far the easiest remaining schedule. 3-5? Even without Butler they can finish the season strong. Spurs won't finish the season 6-2 Jazz could go 7-1 but I think somehow they will lose 2. If another team does get to 49 it will be the Jazz. Your final records with tiebreakers mean it would be 1.)Houston 8.) Minnesota 2.)Warriors 7.) Pelicans 3.) Blazers 6.)OKC/Spurs 4.) Jazz 5.) OKC\Spurs *Spurs\OKC tiebreaker will be decided Thursday when the Thunder visit the Spurs at home.
Yes, not even remotely worried about Denver. They can enjoy their summer. OKC is going to have a time not staying out of 8th.
I want 55 wins 'cause that was my prediction over in O=Live. I've got a feeling I just might be a few short. Why couldn't they have played like this earlier in the year? Huh? Why?
We MUST get 50. Because it's a nice round number that ends in zero. It's just like the significance of the number 10 when talking about statistics. Nine means nothing. You're only good if you get 10 of something. Or 10 of three things. As we all know, nine of three things is meaningless. If you get three 10s, you're a superstar. Three nines, and nobody knows your name. But I ramble. Go Blazers! We got this.
Watch, I said this a couple weeks ago on here. It will come down to the last game against the Jazz. If we WIN, we would have to play them, if we LOSE we get Nola...... what do you want to happen?
Well if you're right on this one, it will be the first time all season. So, I suppose you're due... Blazers will win 40 games, OKC has too much talent not to "figure it out", Lonzo Ball will be a "special player", etc. Something about a blind squirrel comes to mind... BNM
Hmm I went back and looked at Minn's final games. Dunno why I said 3-5 being that I had their schedule infront of me last night too. Maybe I was just sleepy who knows.

Hey, are you forgetting that @HCP is 6-5 in his predictions so far on his handwritten W and L post? He'll try to claim that as pretty good.
@HCP is the 40-42 of S2 - stuck in purgatory. Not good enough to contend, but not bad enough to get a high lottery pick. BNM
