Gray Mule Posted October 8, 2022 Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 Not seeing a post for the upcoming season record, I present each of you Squawk posters the opportunity to put in your guess before the season gets too far advanced. Let it be known that the winner gets the big grin and admiration of all Squawk posters. My guess: 47-35 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 8, 2022 Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 I went through the schedule, game by game, and by pure coincidence came up with the same 47-35 record prediction as Gray Mule. I guess old heads think alike some times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Posted October 8, 2022 Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 51-31, including an impressive 8 game winning streak AND 8 game losing streak. I’m hyped for when Murray and Trae both go through hot stretches together. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post marco102 Posted October 8, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 I was going to go 51-31, but since that's taken. 52-30! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Diesel Posted October 8, 2022 Premium Member Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 I won't let you guys get me gassed up. I want 60. But we have just played 1 opponent in the preseason. We have advantages over those guys. Basketball is about matchups.. right now, we look good though. That offense video gets me in a good mode. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathan2331 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 60-22. If we can stay healthy, teams are gonna have a hard time keeping up with us. I think JJ once he gets going will be a difference maker off the bench, and we should have consistent offensive play now every possesion with 48 minutes of Trae + Dejounte. If Dre takes that next step, we should be one of the best teams in the league. The only question mark for me is our shooting off the bench. Losing Gallinari hurts us in that department, and we haven't really replaced that amongst our bigs. Maybe a vet addition at some point can give us some cover. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warcore Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 53-29. Expect little to no trades this season. Roster is balanced and is just under the tax line. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post thecampster Posted October 9, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I'll say 56-26, but with what I saw in the 2 games preseason games, 60+ is no only possible but probable. This team plays fast, with control and will just run 20 teams out of the gym this year. There will be 20 automatic wins on the schedule just from teams not being able to keep up (it's a long season). I'll go on the record for 56, but I'll be happily not surprised when its 62. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go on the record for 56, but I'll be happily not surprised when its 62. I just see a lot better fits and fitness coming into this year. Hunter going from bottom tier starting 3 to top 10 SF is a massive jump and Capela just being Capela for a full season is helpful as well. We see the marked improvement of Trae, JC, and Aaron Holiday. Okongwu looks to be a stud. The only open items is JJ at the 4 and our wing depth which we haven't seen yet with with Justin Holiday and Bogi being out. That said, we did a much better job with the draft as Martin and Griffin look good. I think we will go back to having a great view of Nate again this year. I think Nate fixed some holes in our lineup. Last but not least, Murray is proving last season wasn't just a fluke but he's getting better still. Man, that trade might be a massive win for Atlanta. Kevin and Trae fit was that never good. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roster is balanced and is just under the tax line. It is the GM's job to tinker. I think if you see us start off strong without Bogi, he could be in trade talks. He's not a guy that I would move this year but I understand if Travis takes calls. Right now, we love what we're seeing from Dre but our Frontcourt is in need of more depth. Serge Ibaka was having his way with our guys. We need some size and ability at the 5. A lot is riding on what we can get from JJ. It's not fair but that's where we are.

kg01 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 In assessing our potential wins, be sure to keep in mind the teams we'll be playing most. The SE division isn't gonna be great this year. CHA will be taking several steps back, imho, and will tank at some point. ORL may have a punchers chance some nights but are still flawed. WAS may be dangerous to a degree but Porzingo has been healthy for a long stretch - which isnt the norm for him, so we'll see what happens there. MIA will be solid but beatable. As long as we can consistently put up professional efforts, we should be able to take advantage. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
