Man.....I don't see how we could lose any of the last three...

I know it's the trendy thing to say, but I'm gonna put San Antonio down as an L. Milwaukee too, even though they're on a back-to-back.

Give me some dates, that's a ridiculous amount of travel in between games.

All road games so it's going to be tougher than normal. Bucks seem to cause trouble to the Hawks so I could see that being down the wire. SA is old but they're resilience. 3-2 is good.

Based on talent they should be 4-1 at worst. Based on them being inconsistent as hell I could see 1-4. I'll go with 3-2.

Not ideal going north to south back north then south and then back north again like that but the travel day helps. Will still be an issue because the guys will spend more time in a fuselage playing boo-ray than they will on a court practicing and playing the actual games. I don't know, the road is usually a buggaboo under normal circumstances and I can only see Toronto as a cakewalk on the trip.

I hate zigzag trips like that. I'm going with 2-3 and hope I'm wrong on that. Good warmup for the February circus-in-town trip, though.

That's kind of the point of this thread. I'm guessing you "predict" that we'll go undefeated the rest of the season? Or is it easier to sit back and not actually make a prediction, that way you can't be wrong, and can only criticize those that did make a prediction?

Milwakee - Win
San Antonio - Loss (we always seem to struggle in Texas, although we "should" be able to beat the Spurs)
Detroit - Win
New Orleans - Win
Toronto - Win

So far this year we've been able to handle the teams that we're clearly better than and by that rationale I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt against all of the teams above, except for the Spurs, who I think we'll probably lose to by 10+ points.
