re: We can nearly close the gap to 8 seed w/ head to head competition

Current projections have the Pels finishing 35-47, so 5-6 down the last 11. Current trajectory with them winning 5 of their last 6 tells me they should go above .500 during the last 11. I'd say 6-5 to 7-4 is a reasonable guess. That would make them 14-11 since the Boogie trade, which is what a lot of us had guessed.
