I'm not predicting exactly when, but the Pels will go on a nice streak. And early enough in the season to put us back in the playoff conversation. So let it be written. So let it be done.'

Yep. With gobert out for 20 games the pels can catch them by the time he gets back.

so you're sitting at 5-15. the next 2 games are at home and are 4 days apart. that's a nice break. and against beatable teams (BOS, WASH). you win those and 7-15.

the issue is that the 5 after that are 1 road game and 4 west coast road games.

Chicago (probably a L)
Portland
Utah
PHX
Denver

those latter 4 are winnable, but on the road…however, none are back to back, which is nice. if they can pull out a nice 3-2 road stretch, that puts them at 10-17 potentially.

the schedule is much easier in 2016. 2 games against LAL, 2 against 76ers, lots of other easier games.

it's not impossible to make the playoffs because .500 looks to be good for another 4 game sweep against golden state. but it's the same hill the thunder had to climb last year.

If we do make the playoffs, who knows what the teams will be like at that time?

just put AD on Curry. can't go any worse than putting anyone else out there against him.

Everyone was Expecting Dallas to not be good with Matthews and parsons missing a bunch of time to start the season. With them not missing much time Dallas will definitely be IN as a 6-7 seed. They have a really solid group with Wiliams-Matthews-Parsons-Dirk. That leaves one spot open for the Pels they will have to beat out the Jazz for it. PHO/POR are ok but the Pels should be able to jump those teams pretty easily I'd think. The team to target is Utah.

AD has gotten smoked the last 50 times he has tried to guard Curry. AD cannot guard him. Jrue would be our best bet.

I think you are confused. The Rockets are currently the team in the 8 spot that the Pelicans will have to pass up, not the Jazz.

Yea they've won 5 of 6 and are finally healthy. If they don't finish 10 games ahead of the pels come find me and I'll buy you a pair of playoff tickets.

Hasn't been shooting well to start the season but fills it up with the threes steals and sometimes rebs.

Maybe Curry goes down with an injury.... Not hoping that happens, but it could.

My point is that rosters and/or performances can change a lot between now and April. Who knows?

Oh was definitely speaking hypothetically. I just mean it's still early in the season if this team begins to get it together.
