Heady nailed it. 14-6.

The schedule looks really favorable early on.

They have to beat the Wizards in DC this year. I've been to every game they've played up here with Davis and they've lost both. Last year's Wall to Nene uncontested dunk at the buzzer was a heartbreaker.

Probably not gonna win the first one against Washington this year... it's the second game of a back-to-back. It's not often that teams win both games on the road of a back-to-back.

So either the loss comes to Atlanta or Washington... and based on past history it's probably Washington.

Do you realize you have them going 8-0 at home? That's unlikely to happen.

They'll most likely drop one or two somewhere.

We'll win some against teams we shouldn't, lose some against teams we shouldn't.

Well, you got Dallas, Charlotte, and OKC at home. Those are all pretty good teams. Charlotte is the second game of a back-to-back.. but it's at home, so that helps.

And crappy teams steal some games at home sometimes. It happens.

They'll most likely drop a game at home during the first 20 games.

I had them starting 12-0 in their first twelve last year and that failed miserably so I won't even attempt this

10-10, any thing better than that is good in my book. It's early in the season And we don't know how long it'll take to find a rhythm

Seriously?

I'm over the mediocrity. If we are .500 after 20 games Monty needs to go.
