I post the actual Vegas line each year and I've been shocked that given all the "haters," the majority of you predict the over each year. Lets see what we're thinking this year...
Over 37.5 Wins

I had to vote under for the simple fact they haven't showed me anything in Pre-Season so far that indicates they'll win more than my Preliminary Projected Regular Season win total of 37gms. I take pride in the fact Vegas odds are right where I have them pegged at.

I voted over. I was over before last night and will stay that way. I cannot for the life of me beleive that this team is what we saw last night. Unfortunately recent history has taught me that no matter what I beleive I can very easily be wrong.
I just hope that people will like me

I wouldn't say awful. 41 games is .500 which makes a team average. 37 is below average - maybe even bad. But not awful.

If you're rebuilding fine. But if you gave up multiple lottery picks to try to get win now players and spent every dollar imaginable to win now and have been doing this for the past SEVEN years, we should expect A LOT more than 37 wins.

I didn't see that trade as one for a win now player. He was about 22 or 23 at the time. But I do agree that we shouldn't have given up two lotter picks for him. We could have and should have got him for less.

With the kind of defense this team plays, they will be lucky to get close to 37. Remember Isiah's still the coach...

With the talent on this team, there is no reason for this team to finish with under 40 wins. Under 37 would be an outrage. And yet we are all filled with apprehension

What talent?
What talent?
I'll never trust this' team again.

Well I'm already on record for 38-40 wins so I guess I have to say Over.

Wow, I'm such a hater. Or a realist.

Better to be a realist than a fool.

Voting after the celts blew us out maybe doesn't count.

Mr. Negative himself is with you my son.

I still believe this team has 46 wins in it. A bad preseason loss doesn't change my opinion. I can understand the line being set there based on the statistics.

You foolish little boy. We are a few injuries away from going nowhere and this is a very injury prone team.
I'll never trust this' team again.

24 over and 2 under. Why do we have the lovers/haters debate again? Is there any logic behind the debate or simply people that over-react to the obvious positivity and negativity of 7 or 8 posters.

Lovers = Foolishness
Haters = Realists
I'll never trust this' team again.

Actually, an injury may help us as Isiah would have to play only certain guys and have a reall rotation. Not that Im really hoping for someone to injure himself, never. But our problem is that we have too much of the same and too little of that really works in the league...

If this team has been improving the past 2yrs why are you going on yr 3 of a 46win best case scenario? You said they may win as many games almost 3yrs ago as a best case scenario. With the addition of Zach and the youngsters shouldn't our best case be somewhere around 50 or more games?
