It looks like it's going to take 37 or 38 wins to get the 8th seed and even with what looks to be an easy schedule - that's a lot of road games and I don't see us ending 13-7 or 12-8. Since all the hideously bad teams are out west, we're probably not going to get a good pick unless DW trades up. Personally I'd be OK if we finish with at least 34 wins. It's a start at least.
here's how i see it working out....4-16....unless, we get towards the way end and other teams are resting key players for playoffs, then we may win a few of the last 3 or 4 games...

I don't know about that. It's not like Detroit, Miami, Orlando and New Jersey are sitting on certain playoff spots, no matter what, for the rest of the season. Orlando is what, just 3 games out of the first or second spot??? Detroit is going to be fighting till the end, as are Miami and NJ is going to want that eigth spot. Those teams are going to be desperate and they are going to see us as a must not lose game. Chicago too.
Don't be fooled at all. This is an extremely difficult 20 games. We have Toronto who we're 1-1 with and we have the Clippers (Who we lost to), Kings and Wolves. Who else is there? All of the rest are fighting for a playoff seeding including the Bobcats.
I saw we go 5-15. Dissapoint Orlando once, get dissapointed by the Clippers.
