If you consider the last couple of years and where we think we are now,
what would be a realistic acceptable result for this season?

Cannot end up with a top 10 pick.

Have to AT LEAST be in the play in imo

1st round exit in a deep series.
If we are fully healthy and Fears/ Queen/ Peavy mature then we should be pushing the 2nd round.
I personally think the play-in this year would be unacceptable.
We are setting up our team to sustain with injuries and should get Murray back. If we get worse instead of better throughout the season then something is terribly wrong.
I think Willie gets fired if we are close to .500 and I think Zion gets "fired" if we don't make a deep playoff run or series.

Team starts abysmally and Willie gets fired before halfway point, then Borrego rallies the troops into the play-in where we give the #1 seed a 7-game scare

Rookies show promise
Willie gets fired
Some clarity on Zion
And most importantly, that traded picks doesn't fall in the top 5
And I'll take play in or make the playoffs, but honestly just want some hope.

Play in would be acceptable, not sure it would save Willie's job though. We'd need to make the playoffs for that to happen, in my opinion. If we finish outside of the top 10 it's a disaster

Sadly, this.
But that is a negative example. An positive acceptable season to me is:
1. To battle for a .500 record.
2. Fears and Queen get minutes and show promise.
I'm not asking for much. However, if we somehow manage to trade Zion for anything of value and are no longer in the Zion business, I will be thrilled!

Above .500. The past three seasons they had winning records.
Last year was an anomaly. Everyone was injured and we were trying to tank to a top 3 pick. Didn’t work and then Dumars pulled the trigger on a trade that is questionable.
Roster wise we should be close to as good as the 2023-24 team.
Poole replaces Ingram.
Trey and Herb should both get more minutes
Fears and back half of season Murray for CJ
We still need a big body IMO. We don’t have that.
But I think this team can win 42-48 games.

- Fears and Queen received solid minutes and showed development
- Zion and Murray improved their trade values
- the 2026 pick does not fall top 4
- Willie fired

Playoffs with Zion leading the way.
He has to be on the fricking court in late April/May

What I would like:
-Trey and Herb show that they are starting caliber players on a really good team and they take the next step in their games of Trey being a true scorer and Herb being a legit 3&D player
-Zion playing 65+ games
-Bey and Poole provide valuable minutes and demonstrate they can be role players on a playoff team
-Murray recovers like he is supposed to with no set backs
-Missi shows he is a starting center
-Fears and Queen adjust to the NBA, even if it's ugly at times
-Win a play-in game
-Willy gets fired, although I understand if we win a play in game that probably won't happen

We have to make the playoffs. After the draft day trade, anything less is unacceptable.

You mean CJ.
No one has replaced BI. We lost him for nothing.
Posted on 7/11/25 at 10:35 am to TeddyPadillac
I mean from a scoring/minutes perspective. Poole can absorbnjngrams minutes and points.
Posted on 7/11/25 at 10:37 am to Boss
Plus you’re replacing Ingram with more minutes from Trey

- Team mostly healthy
- Zion plays most of the games
- after about 30 games be close to .500
- by end of season be at least .500
- draft picks show promise

Trey averaged 31, 30, 35. How many more minutes are you giving him? Come on man.
