Bump

Need to win 9 more games to meet that prediction.  Not going to be easy with road games out East coming up.

At this point, I won't be surprised if the Mavs make or miss the playoffs. They are a fun team to watch, but at some point, you are who you are and they aren't very good. I hope they make the playoffs and can get on a roll, but completely falling apart would not shock me either.

My guess is 42-39.
I don't think it gets you the 11th pick, so at least.. the pick conveyed is in the high teens.

First to be wrong on predictions. Nice! I think I'm stuck in the previous era when 50 was a lock.

I'm eating crow--feathers and all.  I missed my prediction by 10 games.  Now I'm excited to see what changes are made.  A lot...I hope.

Nice call.  I was down heading into the season, but in now way did I expect this.    I am kicking myself that I didn't consider a down year from Kidd.   I was down on him prior to last year and he exceeded my expectations.  I should have been more alert on this.   I am also kicking myself to not factor in a long playoff run on guys like Bullock, DFS, Maxi and dwight.    Dwight was very good during the regular season, not so much the playoffs.  But I always wondered how they were defending so well last year.  I should have factored in a re-adjustment considering their lack of elite defenders.

I guess I was predicting based on where a team with a transcendent talent should be in year five of that era.  Luka did have his best individual year, as expected, but I didn’t account for the front office and coaching incompetence that has been practically unmatched in NBA history. You know, Milwaukee was basically like the Mavericks, and then they changed coaches and immediately won 60 games. There’s still hope.
