Looking at this team I really can't see this team winning more than 30 games. I know there are people that believe they are capable of winning the division and winning 35 plus games but I can't see it. If you believe this team is capable of winning 35 plus games please explain why you feel that way.

Well, they have played 32 games and have own 13 of them. Assuming they win 3-4 more games before they reach the halfway point, we would be on pace to win 31 or so games. Additionally, assuming that we stay in the playoff race the whole year, our team will be motivated to win for the entire year while other teams will start to give up after the allstar break. That potentially might add 3-4 more wins for us and put us at about a 35-36 win season. Moreover, this team has improved since the start of the season and will likely continue to improve. That added improvement might add 3-4 more wins to the total. I am not saying that is definitely going to happen, but it is clearly possible that the team could finish with 36-40 wins this season, which might be good enough to win the Atlantic.

Screw 30. I want 42. Anything less and changes should be made.

And, yes, I do think they can win 42.

I want 42 games also. I predicted at the begining of the season that we can win only 32 games. I was looking at the schendule and I only see us wining something like 30-33 again. If Isiah keeps on suffling the lineup it could be worse.
